It seems like it! :crackup:
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.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
I agree :rock:horaholic said:Why else would this forum even exist?
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.
Oh man i laughed hard at that one. To the OP, you kind of started this thread so that doesn't say much on your part. And some of us are actually just trying to better ourselves, i don't know about everyone else but it really helps me seeing that other guys are going through similar struggles.J.

So more than 1/4th of the guys on this site get many girls?Sir Psycho Sexy said:id say 70% of us are stupid losers
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.
About 90 percent of the guys here are virgins. Its sad. The saddest part is they refuse to listen to any good advice.lynch1000s said:So more than 1/4th of the guys on this site get many girls?
I'd say it's more like 95% of the people who post here are stupid losers, but yes, not everyone here is a loser![]()
Now i have to know how you got this number into your head.joe henny said:About 90 percent of the guys here are virgins. Its sad. The saddest part is they refuse to listen to any good advice.
I believe it was Maxtro who started a poll similar to this. With the ending result concluding there was more virgins than non-virgins here. I don't remember the exact number, but I believe it to be true. I'd even be willing to say that half of the "non-virgin" votes were also lies as well. So the number could be even smaller.Thundernuts said:Now i have to know how you got this number into your head.
What seems odd is you have been a member here for 5 looooong years and you have just been hit with an epiphany? I am wasting a post responding to this, but I think your significant other must have hacked your Sosuave account and posted this, no?lynch1000s said:It seems like it! :crackup:
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
yep and its called the 20/80 rule i thinkScars said:I believe it was Maxtro who started a poll similar to this. With the ending result concluding there was more virgins than non-virgins here.

Ever heard of the 20/90 ratio? It's the theory that %20 of the top males "have" %90 of all the females.
There's guys that just "get it" and then there's guys who simply don't. There really is no "in-between".
