"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

You never know when your number is going to come up. That's why I firmly believe in being grateful for every minute.

Agree with others get to a doctor about your sleep apnea, and try to make sleep a priority, it's part of your health.
I’ve been actually properly resting myself since the accident and I feel like a different person. Actually improving your sleep reduces the random panic episodes during the day too it seems.

I’ll ping this thread again once I get the sleep study done.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

To keep myself afloat and able to do my music gigs on the side, I’ve been getting a rental on Saturday and Sunday.

I got the managers special, and what do you know it’s another Malibu. I guess I’m just destined to drive these things forever:lol:

This is what she be looking like tho:

Driving while exhausted is no different than driving under the influence. The only difference is that one is legal and the other is nor. But just because it's not illegal doesn't make it a good idea. Just don't do it. Sleep in the car if you have to.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

Eastern Time Zone where it's always really late
I almost got T boned by a speeding semi that decided to run a red light/lateeee yellow light.
Another driving "hack" I learned is to hesitate for a second or two when a light first turns green. If a vehicle is going to blow through the light, you don't want to be in its path.

The sh*tty part is I took a 30 minute nap in my car at the truck rest station right before I got home. Did nothing. Earlier in the thread we had talked about taking a nap for at least an hour at a time instead, as needed.

Caffeine.

Fortunately, this will be a thing of the past once driverless cars get fully developed.

What’s crazy is before this happened, I was like “I don’t need any caffeine, I’m fine.”

I’ve always had caffeine when I drive in the past.

Whenever I'm driving after 18 hours after waking up (or less if I didn't sleep particularly well), I drink Dr. Pepper (any caffeinated drink would do). Because of my prostate condition :mad:, I've had to stop taking caffeine, and only take it when driving like this.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

yeah about that, unless you want to live inside your house the rest of your life, there is not much you can do, and even if you don't leave your home, you can die in your bathroom.....

best thing you can do is stay alert and don't take risks, it helps if you start to put your mind when driving in alert, that normally wakes you up
