"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 can't figure out a way. All of the succesful and powerful people are businessmen or politicians with fake smiles and beliefs changing based on what will get them elected. I don't think you can be a real man today anymore and get anywhere in life, at least in America. Imagine Alexander the Great being alive today....would he be taking over the world via politics, or perhaps be a leader of a percieved "terrorist" group?
 

"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.

Alexander the great would probably be an ultimate fighting star.

In a sense it's easier, because a small amount of courage goes a long way.

It is hard to believe how spineless (or on the other hand, dense and stubborn) politicians tend to be. Only one Senator (Russ Feingold) had the balls to vote against the "Patriot Act," and I'm sure that many did not support it deep down inside.

Hey dude...i dont know what the title and a bunch of politics really have to do with being a man...Check the topic no Offence

Yeah seriously.

Politics has been around since the beginning of civilization. It's just how society works, but it has nothing to do with being a man.

Politics and business is a profession, being a man is not. It's character that makes the man.
