"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.

Simple as that
So I believe I will post here, but only if I have questions. I'm only 19, but I believe I've surpassed the maturity level that currently rules the main board. I'd just like to learn something if I can and hear experiences from others. Thanks
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Ridingthelightning: Even though there is a lot of crap on the mainboard, i still see some good advice being given there. Even though you may have to skim through the immature stuff, there will be some good answers for ya.

Anyhow.. welcome to The Mature Man section..

PS Watertiger: That stick-on moustache is on your chin by now.. Fix it so you don't get kicked out! :p

"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.

I'm here for advice, learn, and possibly meet some good folks. I'm not a master Don, and don't want to be, just here to seek out some improvement tips if I want or think I need them.

Haha, this message board is the equivalent to the Adult Contemporary genre of music. You know, we still like older artists who are still producing great music that gets lost among all the lesser contemporary music today.

Yeah, there are few posts in the main message board, but you'll get more quality here, from the people who have lived through most of the issues already.

What I like about this board is that it doesn't deal with chasing much, at least not what I've read. I've never been much of a chaser, and while that got me nowhere with certain girls, it has gotten me a few worthwhile relationships that weren't random.
Chasing is dumb to me, I don't feel like waisting the time. Its always been better for me cause I find the best girls ask me what I'm all about when I don't try to impress anyone.
 

"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.

Although you may occaisionally find a good post in the main forum, this section is better.

There have been some really idiotic posts there recently. Here are a couple of examples of the types of threads you will have to wade through over there:

1) One moron suggested farting when speaking to women.
2) Another clown posted beastiality links to prove his point about women liking sex.
