"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 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.

1. i need more but whenever i find ones i like they cost too much. i cant pay more for a tie than a shirt...
3 but i don't really like them so I'll probably go out and buy a few quality ones. It's always the quality not the quantity of clothing in regards to men's styles. With women it seems to be the other way most of the time.

I have 15. I have to wear them at my job 3 months out of the year. You guys should check out Ross, Burlington, Goody's and places like that. Nice ties don't have to be $50; I got the majority of mine for less than $20.

Approx. ten ties. Most are pre-tied (no, not clip-on!) so I can just slip them over my next, tighten, and be on my way.

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.

Probably 40-50 but I only wear maybe 12 - 16 with any frequency. Oddly some tend to slip out of the rotation due to not ONLY new coming in but sometimes an old favorite reenters the queue. Until they wear out.
This wins for most random thread ever.

Ditto. Ties and watches are the simplest things that a guy can choose to change up his wardrobe easily. You don't have to worry about the fit and it's the thing which makes a plain white shirt so versatile.Darth said:
