"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.

If you could tell something to your 20 year self... What would it be ?

I'm pretty sure that there was a thread like that before but lets brainstorm a little together.

I'll Start:

" If you stop chasing the wrong things, you give the right ones a chance to catch you '' - author unknown

Learn to be happy while single/alone.

Develop you're hobbies or find them. If you find yourself reading/watching long hours on some subject you might be on track:yes: .
 

"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.

Dont you dare get caught up in one female. Spin plates and have lots of options. Dont put your eggs into one basket. Quit trying to win the attention of women who have lukewarm interest in you....instead hangout with those women who have a soaring interest in you. They will make it easy for ya...

She is not special. She is not "the one". She does not complete you. There are millions of girls in the world just like her that can make you just as happy if not more happy. Oh...and she'll get fat in a few years and you'll see her in the mall and you'll laugh about it.

If you treat girls like they're lucky to get your attention, they will magically start believing that they ARE lucky to get your attention!
 

"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.

Life takes work:
Earn money instead of being broke. If nothing else, it makes you meet people.
Workout and eat well. There are zero short cuts. Those who look effortless are most often trying the hardest every moment.
Figure out your career and pursue it rabidly.
You are not too young.

probably wish I told myself this at 18 but 20 is close enough but to make sure you deal with discomfort around women, go out as much as you can earlier
 

"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.

That men are the laborers of life and creators of civilizations, that's why men are expected to be responsible and take action, take control for almost everything in life
