"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

I don't know if you are like me, I get easily stuck at the computer, there is much stuff to do, watch movies, play some games and surf and all that. Considering I've been studying over the internet being with a computer was a daily part of life. Just a tip for everyone of you who have trouble getting away from it. I gave my friend my graphic card and told him he wasn't allowed to give it back in 2 months. I got ****loads of spare time and so much great stuff to do now. Try it out.

Anyways, I'll see you in 2 months. Have a great summer.

"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'm going to do something like this. I don't understand though. Are you using some other computer or did you just take out the card so you can't play games?

I lived without TV for the whole school year. The thing is, one thing goes down, another one will come up. For me it was computer/ xbox. Sure i wasnt watching TV, but i was playing video games..

Going away from this site for 3 weeks is what i'd advice. I've gone away many times, but id say at around 20-25 days you really want to go back and post something "radical"

Dont quit it all together for 2 months, just limit it a bit. Going away from sosuave and posting on masf or some other site for 2 months is not acceptable either.

I would just suggest giving yourself an hour a day to check all this, or something like "from 5-8pm" i have to do something besides watching tv or playing on computer.

Anyone want me computer?

Is there a program that I can download that limits my computer usage to say at 11pm?
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

yes its called will power :p

you should be bale to stick to these things no problem, its easier then a diet because your body has a natrual urge for food, but not a nutral urge for playing on the computer.

Its easy to use the pc to much but once you say to yourself i will not use it then you should mange to keep to it!
