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.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
I would be surprised if nobody had made that, most likely there's multiple by different voices.Anyone done an audio book version of the bible? Would be good to listen to it at work.
They mean good, but pressuring isn't always the best thing to do and too few understand that.Also want to know why guys find out I'm single then push me to go chat up girls?
Just feel like another couple of rejections would push me over the edge at this point.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
You’re in a scarcity mindset and women pick up on that. You’re not carrying yourself with strength.Thanks. On reflection it's not even the rejections that are the problem its the frustration that comes from a dry spell. It's hard to come across as a happy well-laid guy when you haven't seen any action in months.
I think the offer I'm putting on the table for these women is a good offer I'm frankly puzzled by the lack of response.
I put it down to the fact they can tell I'm frustrated but it's a catch 22.
I've never learned to like rejections. I understand in my brain that they don't matter and that it's a numbers game, but they still always bug me.Just feel like another couple of rejections would push me over the edge at this point.
Personally, I don't think so. People are more resilient than you think. So you get rejected. Big deal. Hurts for what? Like 20 seconds. I guess it's a little worse the better you know the person but usually when rejected the person barely knows you. They are rejecting one part of you. They don't know what really makes you tick or what awesome **** you do in your spare time. Plus, theres a million reasons why someone says no. Maybe they are seeing someone. Maybe they hate the way you dress. Hell maybe they hate the where you place your commas. Point is this. You could fold up or you can keep going. Keep going. Don't let someone who barely know stop you from finding the right person.Just feel like another couple of rejections would push me over the edge at this point.
How do you rate yourself on the looks-scale? You are saying that you can only carry a happy vibe if you get action. If you had action before then why didn't you get another girl to keep up the momentum? You did get social proofed since you did technically get action. What type of guys are these girls going for if they are not selecting you?Thanks. On reflection it's not even the rejections that are the problem its the frustration that comes from a dry spell.
