"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

In my afc mode I estimated over 2 grand easy


I tried to add it up one night, and I just got sick and disgusted with myself, never ever again will I do this in my entire life.
 

"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.

Every time I get into a relationship, I'm unable to put away as much in savings. One year I saved nothing and that sucked.

Even if you're careful and have a chick you can go dutch with often, it still adds up. In my last 4 month relationship (dutched often) I spent $ 2000- 3000 I wouldn't have other wise. A good chunk being a 4 day Vegas trip.

Hookers or good girls, women cost you.

Ive cut out the bets and drugs now and dont go out on the beers very often, but women have been a minor blip in comparison!

I'm still looking
Not too much money as I know where to put the foot down, but a bit too much time. I wouldn't say "wasted", but certainly there are moments where my time would have been spent better elsewhere.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I spend more when I'm with a girl, just because we're out generally doing things that cost money (ex: movie). I consider it worthwhile money spent.

When I was a total AFC, I bombed the same amounts of money, typically doubled up as I'd pay for the chick, too, for no results at all.

Probably a good three thousand or so. Maybe more, I'm not going to count it all up..

Not a lot. A few dinners, maybe 5 movies. Less than $100 between many women. I invested millions worth emotionally. And by invested, I mean wasted.

I was very traditional and romantic - due to my proper, non-american upbringing. Had the whole fairytale love bull**** going on. But, it never got me anywhere, and I WAS very good looking, socially adept, had a nice car, solid personality, a backbone, and all that ****. Basically, the best of both worlds - like women SAY they want. All lies. They didnt want a hot good guy to marry, or whatever bull****. They just wanted ****, and actually got turned OFF by romantic, relationship / gentleman type ****. Gutter *****s, really. Their attraction shot up 600% once I finally had enough, lost interest, hated their guts, and treated them like garbage. Their attraction was also super high in the very beginning - when I wasnt very interested - only to plummet into the negatives when I *gasp*... wait for it... the mother of all evil... here it comes... get ready... showed interest back. OH, THE HORROR! Anything but that! SAVE ME JESUS!

Despite *****ing non-stop about *******s who used them for sex - thats EXACTLY what they responded to (and were themselves). They would actually, literally, seriously ***** about the same thing they went after. At the same time. Once they knew I was interested - it was game over. They would ***** about everyone who DIDNT want them, and treated those who did like ****. Pot and the ****ing kettle. They were addicted to the chase, had low self esteem, and ****ing **** **** **** ***** ***** I had the worst standards in the world.

This is why its so vital to pay attention to everything, and assume or believe nothing. Dont make things bigger than they are, or try changing anyone. And DONT sympathize with the damsel. Whatever they tell you is who they are, what they respond to, who they associate with, and what they feel they deserve. The whole truth is right in front of you. All that **** they reveal as theyre *****ing... Its all them.

But that **** can really **** up your views. Dont try saving troubled people, or getting caught up in their mess. Accept them just as they are RIGHT NOW - not how they used to be before they got "hurt" and betrayed (which, by the way, was all their fault for choosing *******s).

****ing ranting again ****.

**** my life.
:crazy:

"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've thought about this recently and to be honest since I began developing my game I haven't spent much more money on girls than I would spend on two or three nights out with my friends. Of course it's also because I'm young and I have never been in a LTR. My longest relationship lasted about a month and a half and I haven't spent a single coin on that girl.

But the girls that I go out with don't even want me to spend money on them, every time I suggested we go for a coffee or a beer or anything together, they refused and said that they'd much rather go for a walk. So I continued to just take them for a walk on a date, which also works best for me, since I can escalate much better.

I guess it's also thanks to the region where I live, there are still some good nice girls around. They are rare but I guess it's much better than in some other areas around the world. The girl I've met recently even suggested that she would take me for a beer and pay for it. A lot of them have no problems taking me somewhere and paying for me, though I almost always refuse becaue I feel too femine then. :D
