"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

It is 8am...

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I also have this problem. What you gotta do is just go one day without going to sleep and go to bed at 11 or 12 or whatever that nite and then get up at 8 or 9 or whatever the following day then go to bed at 11 again and get up at 9 again and so on and so forth til the pattern is back to what you want it to be. If you think you can't do that then go get sleeping pills for a week or two and you sould be fine.

I had the same problem until I cut coffee out completely. I even needed the whole 10 hours sleep. Since I stopped drinking java all the time I have a LOT more energy, get to sleep at normal times and only need 7-8 hours of it. Maybe you've got the same problem. How much coffee do you drink?
 

"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.

Seriously your complaining that your an insomniac when you stay up all night and sleep during the day... it's completely your fault. Stay up for 2 days and go to bed at a certain time and then get up in the morning. Repeat until your body clock adjusts back to normal.

DOH KAY! :crazy:

Cause of course I am in total agreement with you about what is normal.

And of course I haven't tried to be normal before.

:yawn: You sound like my high school principal. :yawn:

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

This is not a record kid!! I did six consecutive all-nighters posting on SoSuave in 2004!!!
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

You will all be happy to know that I fell asleep at 3am last night (or whatever), and woke up at 8am. :)

Got a lot to do today...

The secret to my success was that shortly after I woke up yesterday (around 6pm, if you recall), something frustrated me and pissed me off to the point where I just sat and cried for like 5 minutes. I said I had been having a bad week, lol! And I am a girl, so I am allowed to cry. ;)

Worked like a charm! I was tired all night from that, and fell right out at 3am, instead of... well damn, now! Normally I'd be going to sleep right now!

No I'm a biochemistry student. However, you are correct. Most of my buddies are suffering as well since we all take the same intro courses. A lot of my buddies are in BME or ChE.

Tonight is my last night of all night PAPER WRITING this time. After tonight this hellish week will be over and I may rest in peace.

So, with that said...time to pull this all nighter ONE MORE TIME.

Just so you guys know doing exercise has nothing to do with sleep it doesn't help you at all it will just take the energy out of your body but your mind can still be wide awake. I'm probally one of the fittest kids around or am usually and my sleeping is still in bad ways as I have the same problem as iqqi as I have to wait untill I'm really tired in order to sleep and that makes me miss most of the next day.

On school days I'm lucky to get 4/5 hours.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.
