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.
In March 2022, Wheat Waffles made the point that nightlife venues are a bit redundant for Chad-tier men due to the swipe apps and Instagram. I've linked from the moment in that video where Wheat says that.
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.
So, that's how they are. Some guys will accept it and get the easy smash. Some will deny and wine & dine them. Been on both sides of it as a man (minus the dining). Wanting to get laid is a universal desire.
Women are stupid and degen. Horniness is often a sign of stress, anxiety and fear of missing out, lack of meaning in life etc. I know cos I've been there.
A woman who wants to fck guys from Tinder is one who;se life is completely meaningless and empty. I know this. I woman in a happy relationships or meaningful life aint going to be doing that. This is how an Alpha male can control female sexuality so it doesnt go against him to other guys.
People that are bad at so bad at OLD that they cry about it every other post makes me laugh out loud. Do you think there's a 100% acceptance rate and 0 dates and only virtual fvcking on OLD?
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.
Nothing has changed since 2014 other than your game decreasing and victim mindset increasing.
Obvious, but brilliant.
I don't think the interviewees are telling the truth.
You swipe right on females, you match with the female, you message the female to hangout/go on a date, you have sex with the female after the date. What has radically changed other than your game for the worse?
I personally like bars & clubs. It’s a fun place to hang out. People tend to be friendly. Approches, by both men @ women are normal and people expect it.
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.
This assumes’Chad-tier’ men only go clubbing to pick up women. Clubbing itself is fun. Music, crowds, conversations. dancing drinks…. And. If a meet with a girl happens, well. Icing on the cake.
OLD is easy if you meet the cut(The guy women wanna bang, Top Tier guy whatever you wanna call'em), I have some friends who clean up very well depending on where you live it would be like shooting fish in a barrel(3-5 dates a week). I have one buddy who pulls model types from OLD but the caveat is he's a millionaire (27 years old). For me OLD comes in waves (last Xmass I was cleaning up this last summer not so much)
I totally need to follow this guy more.
That woman in the happy relationship was out riding c0ck to get there. You're creating a narrative based on your personal values judgment. This is how guys delude themselves into their GFs and wives being angels.
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.
Nah, its cos your in a world of beta male loser simps.
Okay homie. Well I do agree with you about Tinder to some degree. Disagree on your binary m/f and NAWALT points.
This is my view, and I am not exactly active in the club scene. Your goal should be to to entertain yourself, any women you pick up along the way is just a fun byproduct.
This is preposterous. On OLD you are competing against more men and you still have to meet the girl in person first.
Every single girl has a tinder or some sort of OLD profile.
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.
