What the hell is that supposed to mean?BingoBango said:This thread was clearly started by a woman.
Let's not even try to argue.
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.

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.

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.

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.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
That still doesn't answer the question of whether those flowers were made of sh!t!If the man takes all the bull5hit a woman puts out and then tries to make her happy with a bouquet of flowers, she leaves him..

This is what I hate. Posts that are logical and well-conceived. This one post has effectively ruined this forum. Gone are the days of the nimble finger keyboard jockey. The yelling, the ranting, the anger. Now we have the wise sage with his sensible advice. I say, "IGNORE SUCH TROLLS!" Right, Vulpine? :rock:Ricky said:Social dynamics on the internet is such a new and interesting issue in life.
To me in general, the internet is still a place to voice ideas,etc. I don't care too much if someone disagrees with me politically or in my other ideas, but there is a key distinction.
I don't take arguments serious because I have never actually met any of these people. The dynamic changes after it becomes people you have met.
For instance on a sports board I read, they regularly have get togethers. Easy to do since the posters are mainly local.
What you find is, that once you have met the people, arguments become way more civil and less likely to happen.
The anonymity of the internet allows such stupid attacks to take place, and in my opinion it's also why I don't take anyones attacks seriously.
I do hate how threads become flame wars but the best one can do is ignore the attacks and keep posting ones point if they'd like to.
One real reason to not take this site seriously is to look at what is most likely the #1 thread on the board. "THE DON"T MASTURBATE THREAD". We have a whole thread on here about guys trying to quit masturbating! That's one of the longest threads on this board, if not the longest.
So Wyldfire, stay, don't take it seriously.
