"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.

Whats up everyone if you can help it would be great. Ok heres my problem I'm

getting up there in age. I never had a girlfriend. I have bad approach anxiety

and freeze when I see a girl I want to say something to. I don't know what to

say when I have tried to approach it only goes as far as hi or whats your name

and they never seem interested. I soon either start stuttering or go blank. I

haven't been laid in awhile and the last time was with a chick i probably would

not show to anyone. She wasn't hideous but she wasn't great either. I don't

think I look bad or anything. I just worry to much I guess. I really want to

pull this don juan thing off I am ready for a change I need one. What should I

do. I want to be able to talk to all types of women and not care about rejection
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Greetings, change your point of view. You dont need a lady; a lady needs you.

My one and only tip is baby steps dude. You're not going to be a DJ over night but everyday, work on doing something that gets you out of your comfort zone.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I advise you to do lots of reading and lots of clubbing.

Go to a strip bar and plan to spend $1000 and you'll be a new man.

I like that I think I have to remember that when Im out. It just seems when Im out i will get quick glances but I normally end up standing along the wall trying to look cool, which I probably don't
 

"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.

Best advice I can give you.

Dont listen to other peoples advice, especially if it sounds rehashed from whatever bs you have been doing and probably brought you here.

Go out and do your own thing, and make your own damn destiny. Dont ever listen to the people who bs about "Friends introduce you to girls" and "You wont find it if youre looking for it" Both those are loads of crap and counterproductive.

Forge your own path. And dont forget your past and why you're here.

Actually I think that's outstanding advice. I have banged most of my female friends' friends. Guess you could say that's my path.

But the forge your own path is probably the truest thing anyone could've said. Try, fail, try, fail, try, fail, succeed once in awhile.

I here what you are saying and I am going to try. And Im working on a better destiny because the one I am living now I am not that proud of.
 

"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.

Its outstanding advice.. if theres other variables that are going your way.
My crew (as in the people I sarge with) are my closest friends, and we all bring each other in on dates where the girl brings her friends. So in that case, yes, the above is sound.

Now, on the otherhand, my friends (the ones I dont sarge with) never seem to bring me around any other girls. I had a very close friend, who I have since parted ways with, who went on a double by himself, just because he didnt want to bring me in for whatever reason he had. He ended up going home by himself as well, so it was the same outcome, Regardless of me going on a tangent, its only sound advice if your friends want to introduce you around. Trust me, any same sex friends who think you're really good at this or are AFCs themselves, dont want to make more competition for themselves.

So what are you supposed to do then, wait around for your friends, or just go out and build your own harem? My path is more hands on, but I never say close any doors.

Go to the gym and start working out if you aren't already. Work your arms, chest and shoulders it will raise your self esteem and girls are attracted to a developed upper body vs flat shoulders, no muscle mass at all.
Get little bit of tan. People with some tan are twice as attractive vs people who are pale. Tan makes you look skinnier, healthier and more attractive. This is a fact.
Third, get a hobby you enjoy. If you like hiking then join a team and meet new people that way. Expand your friend circle get out of the house as much as you can. 70% of life success is just showing up.
Start of as friends with girls so you can get comfortable. Worst that can happen is you will remain as friends. Best thing that can happen is that you will meet more girls that way and something eventually could happen. Your mojo will go up for sure.
That was actually how I got my first girlfriend few years back. I met a girl that had a boyfriend and we became friends. I was not attracted to her so I could be myself and un-shy myself because I was really shy. Soon after she said she had a girl for me to meet.. and I dated few of her girlfriends and it was a huge breakthrough in my dating life.

Now that's the truth.

If a friend has gotten me a girl, SHE was doing it because she trusts me to treat her friend right. Guys are often cool to my face, but rarely hit me up to come to parties, unless they have a girlfriend or have very high self-esteem.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
