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.
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.
Mjazz said:I was just wondering how bad it really turns girls off. Like maybe 2 or 4 small ones on your face.
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.
This is really the wrong question to ask, and it shows you're in the wrong frame: "What will all girls think?" First of all, you're trying to please all women, which is def the wrong place to come from. Even if you were trying to please one woman, it could be a bit questionable.Mjazz said:I was just wondering how bad it really turns girls off. Like maybe 2 or 4 small ones on your face.
If it helps you get laid :rockon:L777 said:I do this really gay thing if I'm on a night out...I use this stuff called menaji camo on my cheeks (where I have mild acne) and it basically just covers it up but no-one can tell you're wearing it. Aparrantly they use it on Justin Timberlake, Antonio Banderas and many other male celebrities.
I got it off mankind.co.uk but I'm sure you can get it across the pond.
Lol yea...make up seems to help emos and goths...why not PUAs?Charm said:If it helps you get laid :rockon:
As much as you let it turn them off. I've got a nose on me that short women stand under in the rain. And if I could ever learn to flap my ears, I'd never use public air transport again.How much does acne turn girls off?
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
Easy Van Wilder...Themanthatcan said:Ok. Contrary to what most of you believe, I think it reflects your level of hygiene and how well kept you are. Get Clearasil face wash, and Proactive refining mask. First use the face wash then put the mask on individual pimples, to dry them up. Whatever you do, don't pick it!! (Unless its really white)And if you do pick it, push down around the pimple not into it.Picking doesn't do anything for you face but make it worse. Not popping a zit may not produce the same immediate results as popping one, but in 2-3 days it will go away, w/ no scab or trace it was there and probably won't come back. Use the combo 2 times a day and at most 3-4. Don't over do it! If you keep using it too much consistently, it will dry your face out and your face will start PEELING. You'll have a problem much worse than your zits. If you can put a small amount of lotion or mousturizer on your face just so it's not so dried out, do it. The keys to clearing up your acne are patience, and moderation.
Write that down.
Ha.Yeah, that was the pun at the end. (by the way guys, Ryan Reynolds is a great example of what most here are striving for. Check out "Just friends" "Van wilder" etc.Ripper said:Easy Van Wilder...
Nah, I had to go to a dermatologist to get rid of mine.WaterTiger said:Get some Pro-active! It doesn't work for everyone, but it works for most.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
B.S. I'm borderline obsessive about my personal hygiene but have had mild acne for years now. Whereas one of my flatmates smokes weed all the time, eats crap, doesn't shower regularly or have a skin regime....but has near flawless skin. It's just genetics.Themanthatcan said:Ok.

right...and I'm 95% certain that acne can be worsened by stress. So if you worry about your acne, it can make you break out even more creating a cycle.splinterkb said:If its not a lot, then it shouldnt matter much. Worrying about it too much will be worse than actually having it. Its not that big of a deal, everyone gets it.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
