All I see is sex...sex...and more sex.
I'm really sick of it!
I'm really sick of it!
"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'm sick of television.

"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.
Best friends? NAY

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

yes there is sex but...
I get tired of seeing men being treated like morons. King of Queens, Everyone screws over Raymond, Friends. Just to name a few. That is what I get tired of seeing. I decided to turn off my tv and barely watch it once a week. Maybe an hour or two a week.

Stop b1tching you little b1tch.
Damn that was redundant. Oh and that doesn't mean to go wank off either.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
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.

Until now. They just played a flashback episode that gave the story of how they met. Carrie was a stuck-up princess with a b1tchy attitude and too much makeup. Doug was interested in her friend until his roommate took her into the bedroom.
So when the two of them were left in the living room he completely showered her with neghits, called her on her bullsh1t, teased and treated her like a prick (eg dog got the front seat later in ep)
Check out this neghit after Carrie complained about her hair blowing in the wind:
"What? You've got enough hairspray in there to stop a bullet"
In fact he went overboard with the jerk attiude but it worked out for him. NOW I know how Doug got Carrie.....he;s not that AFC after all.
I know this is just TV but it was refreshing to see the male character act like a real man for a change.

I get really frustrated at this too. I like the occasional episode of King of Queens but I always wonder how the hell Doug scored Carrie.Originally posted by comic_relief
