"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

If you like Aqua Di Gio, you MUST try Millésime Impérial by Creed :D.

Trust me on this one, if you can find a real perfume/fragrance shop it'll be there. If not it may be hard trying to get the nuts to shell out $170 for a cologne you haven't even tried :D.


In the mean time Go try Unforgivable by Sean Jean, or Unforgivable Multi-Platinum.
 

"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.

Aqua Di Gio is great, but I prefer the body gel (lotion) over the actual cologne as the scent lasts longer, plus you can apply it to other areas of your body (arms, hands, face, legs, etc.). On top of that, you can throw in another favorite scent without feeling guilty about using two sets of colognes (since the body cream doesn't count). Personally, I use it in conjunction with Polo Double Black or Unforgivable. I've received a number of compliments/comments/questions @ work and among friends.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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 cannot go wrong with Creed. Creed makes some of the most sophisticated, sought after, and best smelling scents in the world.

Silver Mountain Water by Creed is hands down the only cologne I will wear on a first date, or any night out when I know I will be surrounded by women.

Aaaahh there was a guy at the train station on saturday with such a great aftershave(/cologne), I only turned my head to look at him because I caught the smell and it really turned me on. I was surprised to see a really old and unattractive guy but for a split second I still fantasized about straddling him right there on the bench because he smelt so god damn good.

I wish I had asked what he was wearing, if only to smell it again. Does anyone have any idea what it could be? What they get complimented for the most? The smell was...I'm not sure how to describe it....reminiscent of an Armani scent...and Sure for men (although that's an english deoderant)....it was very very subtley sweet, but not an instant sweet-smelling scent like women's perfume. Hmmmm.

That scent beyond a shadow of a doubt was Armani's Aqua di Gio. The greatest cologne of all time

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

BOD is sold in walmart and it smells excellent.$7.50


The two best bottles are the green and the black one. The green is sweet and the black is professional

Polo Black is good too, but it isn't what you want if you're looking for cheap

hey guys don't know why I am even considering this buuuut

a local shop has discounted the david beckham range of eau de toilette sprays essence for men, homme, intimately for men, instinct & signature ... they are all down to $12 from $50

just wondering if any of you have used any of these and if they are actually any good. once again it is just a spur of the moment thing and not getting my hopes up about any of them. still loving the ADG by Armani
 

"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.

I don't have time to go back through and read 12 pages of comments. I saw one guy above mention it, Polo Black.

Another archaic thread, how interesting.

Here are my personal colognes that I think are great:

-Drakkar Noir

-Armani Code Black

-Axe Anarchy Rub-on Deodorant

-Axe Anarchy Spray-on Deodorant

After that you're good to go.

Cheers!
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
