"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Ive come to the point where advice are only useful short term as an inspiration and a reminder but long term success comes from myself. Having this thread up just makes me feel worse and that is the last thing I want to feel. Thanks to whoever read my post.

If there is anyone else out there felt like they've reached rock bottom. Feel free to PM and I'll be more than happy to share my story.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
With what? Girls? Life?

You can't be out on the street, since you have regular Internet access, right?

If it's about women...it's not that serious. Honestly.

I concur with the above. Anytime I get down or frustrated about something (and especially if that something in any way relates to women), I am reminded about how blessed I am to live a relatively comfortable life, and how insignificant most of my worries are in the grand scheme of things.

It often takes an event like the earthquakes in Haiti for people like us to better appreciate how fortunate we are to live where we live and to have the advantages we enjoy. The mere fact that we have time to expend thought and energy on women "problems" speaks volumes about how fortunate we are.

This too shall pass.

Interestingly though, our problems with women are directly connected to the privileged life we(and the women) enjoy....
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Furthermore, I'd be willing to bet that many of the people currently struggling in Haiti...probably don't have nearly as much trouble getting laid as we do in "first-world" countries.

Just a thought...as long as the convo is going down this avenue.

What an annoying first post comment. Try some basic introductory information then tell us what is the matter. If you're running your life like your first post comments, I'm not at all surprised you're having difficulties.

It appears to me as though he removed the original post (edited it out). I never read the original post so I have no idea what it was he was saying. But it looks like he was embarassed about the original post so he removed it and replaced it with this note explaining why.
