"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.

is it good to jack off?

"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.

Yep.

It reduces the risk of prostate cancer, reduces stress levels and keeps you in check when around women.

It's fine to do it a few times a week, and is beneficial to your mood, releases certain endorphins and like the person above said, reduces risk of prostate cancer.

Doing it too often will have negative effects though, it will leave you feeling lazy and you'll feel a huge lack in motivation, your mood will actually become worse and you'll find it hard to concentrate.

I know this because I've done many little I guess you could call social experiments on myself. Last year I masturbated ridiculously often for a few months, then did not masturbate for 40 odd days straight and noted the changes I felt in my body.

Obviously there will be some differences as we may not be the same, but still, it's a generalization.

Quoted for truth.

5 times a week is the optimum in terms of physiological benefits.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

I don't do it. It makes you lazy. Being horny is a motivator. Also, when I have f buddies, I get lazy. I sarge less. Sure, I'm more productive at work, walking in with that "I just had wild sex last night" look on my face, shaking everyones hand, etc, which in turn attracts girls, but don't get too comfortable in a masturbation routine.

meaning, don't fall into the "I'm not gonna go out tonight I'm just gonna watch this new porn I downloaded and jack off" routine

Why would you want to go sarging all day when you're already getting all the ass you want? ;)

I think that excessive masturbation is problematic based on personal experience. Because you may only condition yourself to get turned on through artificial means, and then when the actual event when you're with a girl feels unnatural. Therefore I believe it should be moderated i.e. don't jack off when you're bored, just do it when you're extremely horny.

Because banging the same thing gets old once you've done it a dozen times or so. Gotta have like 3 or 4 at a time not just 1 or 2.

try and stray away from masturbation... especially porn it is unnatural.

because it's just you and you it's much more different than ****ing a girl, and if you're sexually exhausted with yourself then you're not even gonna wanna get that good sex with a ho.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
