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.
The thing is, I don’t know if I lost his friendship now because of this. Should I just forget about him? Now it feels like I might bother him and prefer to leave him alone. Do you think what I told him was that bad?
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Yes. You are a tease. Put out or leave him alone.
But why flirt with him if there is no tangible end goal? Like @Dr.Suave so eloquently said: Either put out or leave him alone. As of right now, in his eyes and every man's eye here, you are a tease seeking validation.

I really feel like he is indeed similar to my ex. He seems like a prude. Ok, I admit I did bad at confessing that to him since he has a girlfriend but I really thought he was different, like more open minded and that I could talk to him about anything but I guess I was wrong.
I also wanted to add that he’s spiritual so maybe he doesn’t like certain things and wants to be righteous all the time.
The guy lives far away and is in an exclusive relationship. This juice is not worth the squeeze.
So...if that's the case why would you think he would be good in bed? Those types of guys are usually into terrible boring missionary sex because it's "evil" to want to feel good. High chance he is probably worse than the guy you told him was bad in bed.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
This and only this. Next.
Probably. It’s fun to see where it goes though.
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.
Did I mention that I wanted to sleep with him or even get with him? I just shared a fantasy with him. Also, he’s the one who started this friendship with me. When we met, he was the one who started talking to me and trying to get to know me, with a girlfriend and everything!! He was messaging me before I shared my fantasy and didn’t stop me while I flirted.
I get what you’re saying. I swear it wasn’t like that. Since he started messaging me, I felt like I had to be honest and tell him that I desired him in the past because honestly I couldn’t stop flirting with him so it was tempting. When he asked to video chat, I honestly wasn’t ready but since he started to get mad, I told him to please be patient. That someday maybe we could video chat. Then he started getting more mad and just shut me down. If he thinks I was playing, oh well… what can I do? And what was the rush anyway? Couldn’t he wait a little?
This might be a woman...10 members explained ( man's-plained) why he got mad about the video call, yet (s)he makes another post purely from her own POV, not understanding what happened .
And she'll believe this is true when other women tell her this. And best believe, they will.lol, classic woman here. blames the guy for her problems and doesn't know when to shut up.
First she admits to having morality issues( I admit I did bad at confessing that to him since he has a girlfriend).
Then when the heat gets turned up she starts to shift blame to him and says (he’s the one who started this friendship with me. he was the one who started talking to me and trying to get to know me, with a girlfriend and everything!!He was messaging me before I shared my fantasy and didn’t stop me while I flirted.) Me, Me, Me, Me, Me, ME ME ME ME ME
Different day, different emotions I guess. Why they get a free pass on that I have no idea. No wonder why they all want strong men to keep their ship upright.
The older I get the more I see women as silly children and certainly not fit do be in leadership positions.
Its ok Browneyes, its not your fault he doesn't want you. He's a bad person, not you. You deserve something much better!
It's kinda like blaming the refs for not spotting the ball soon enough when it's on the quarterback to get down sooner.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
