"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

How about a redesign?

I know the site has a lot of content now so this could be very time consuming but I feel the current style isn't very refined. As the whole DJ thing is about refining outselves and improving our techniques I feel the front-page feel of the site lets it down when you first visit.

After a while you get used to it and even grow to like the simple layout but I think something a little cleaner could remain easily readable but also more professional and in keeping with the 'suave' nature of the DJ philosophy.

Perhaps some other thoughts on the design would be interesting?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Wouldn't have to take longer to load. If anything the current design with its tiled background could take slightly longer. I especially think the main page is a bit weak. I think the navigation that appears on the other pages should be on the main page and the explanation of the sections should be made in a single column like an article or sorts.

Anyway, I'm not really complaining too much, it's the content that I come for, I just know the first time I came to the site I wasn't very impressed, some people are more fickle than me, might not delve deeper or something.

I've been working on a redesign for months. Hired a couple people to redesign the site for me (cost a lot of money), but haven't found anything I really like yet.

Of course when I eventually do come up with a design I like, that I think totally kicks butt, I'm sure everyone will complain and say "change it back."
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I'm with a redisign, the front page and its links doesnt look good for a first time visitor, of course its the content that counts but a new nice design would be great, also to organise the links on the front page in columns and sectors instead of having them lying around randomly.

IMPROVE

If there's room for improvement, improve!


"leave it the way it is" is the worst advice you could give
