"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.

17/21...Day seventeen, today I found my digital camera I'd been looking for and forgot that I had recorded a video that runs a few minutes of me getting head. I'd almost loaded the batteries in when I remembered, and decided I'd better not take that chance and watch it. The batteries went in my electric shaver instead lol. One of my motto's coming into '06 was "I'd rather make a porn than watch one" lol. More field reports coming soon fellas...
 

"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.

actually, yesterday i looked at some 'porn'

not videos, but pics. the thing is i like to draw, and women being one of those things, i was just using the images to draw from for some practice. the couple nights before that i was starting to have some crazy vivid dreams.

i honestly don't want to bust a nut in my sleep because that would be a mess to clean up, especially after not having nutted in 15 days. :eek:

anyway, after looking at those pictures the other night, my vivid dreams went away. i've actually noticed that the times when i'm more aroused by real women, or even while dating a girl (during which i rarely watch porn, so same thing)...i've had more of these 'vivid' dreams.

so, basically, what i'm saying is, i might just watch a tiny bit of porn here and there to keep myself from erupting during the night. tonight i watched about a couple scenes of various movies i got, and hopefully it will help prevent any explosions during the night. that's honestly why i watched. i didn't masturbate at all, just watched to avoid a mess...

...better yet hopefully i'll get laid soon and won't have to worry about holding it in any longer :woo:

I still don't see the point in not jacking off.

I'm getting weird dreams, but not really sexual. Strange ones, I'll leave it at that. Hmmm..one more week.
I need to get some ass before I go crazy. I feel like I'm going to snap. I was getting ready to go to work this morning, and my next door neightbor was being loud (graduation was this weekend). I didn't bother saying anything since I was leaving, but when I walked out the door with my bike at 1am in the morning, they looked at me and asked if the music was too loud. <.< I think I gave them a mean look cuase they were apologizing without me saying anything. Then I said not worry about it now, with a firm voice, and left.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

18/21...Day Eighteen, the dreams are getting ridiculous!! Very vivid dreams about fellatio this time. I had some setbacks with girls a had sarged earlier. But I will sarge on...this is a lifestyle now. I'm scheduling what will be a sure thing Saturday with this girl I know just in case I haven't gotten any by then. Missing my long distance LTR right now (not my "girlfriend" tho for distance reasons). The girl from my hometown I had a sexual dream about just called and is coming over tonite. Wednesday I reach my goal and Friday Chickenlegs03 reaches his goal, and I'm definitely taking a second option. This is great! And like I always say SEE YOU AT THE TOP FELLAS!!!

Two weeks without a single orgasm. Feeling more anxious now. But I don't get vivid, sexual dreams. Simply weird, violent ones. Perhaps it's a sign I might really snap if someone pushings the right buttons...hopefuly not, I try to avoid fights.

5/21. I'm approaching the point where I caved last time. I've been a lot busier this week though so I'm hardly noticing that I'm going without it.

NO ONE ANSWERED MY QUESTION!!!

When you end up getting a ONS, do you quickly JERK OFF before banging her? If I **** her straight up I'll blow my load as soon as I touch her tits. (given how long I havn't masturbated) Is there any shame in just rubbing one off all over her face in 10 sec? Do you tell her, etc.?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

I have a question, which is does anyone here have any real proof that masturbating is a drain on your testosterone other than immediately after you do it?

nope. and you can never know until you try. it's more than just energy. some of it is a placebo effect. but self-discipline and using that time more productively that i would otherwise use to wack off...that's no placebo.

btw, i'm on day 17 today.

i feel like a man

"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.

One week! This is easier than I expected. I have a very strong libido, but I am determined to make it.

Against all advice I watch porn, and abort mission before ruining my statistics. I would simply be too bored if I didn't get to peruse my collection. I don't recommend this for anyone else, though. :)

Seeing as I had sex this weekend things got a little easier. But the results of the project so far:


--I actually think of sex less. I have noticed this other times when I have gone without whacking for ten days or so; perhaps it is simply a matter of thinking less of that which you don't do much of. However, I still desire sex as much as before. Just don't think about the desire much.

--Less procrastination. It is true that whacking off can be used to procrastinate when there's something you need to do.

--A greater incentive to get real sex

--Any time discipline beats desire your self-confidence gets a boost

--A kind of fresh and clean feeling. Like when you beat other habits, like cigarettes or sugar.

--Frustration!


Despite the frustration I am confident I can make it to a full three weeks, though.

My first day of summer semester will be my 21st day. I'm almost there. Will be difficult between Wed through Sun since I have no work or anything of importance to do. Need to make plans to stay out of the house by then.

20/21...Day Twenty...One more day to go guys...dreams still vivid, but not sexual lately. I remember my first week or two into this, I felt really emotional for a few days during that time. Just like when I was a vegetarian for a year and a half I became emotional in the beginning because I was detoxing. It was the same feeling. Anybody else felt like that?
I'm very glad to see many are doing so well in this thread, and that there's such an air of encouragement and solidarity here. This will free up a lot of time to get our goals accomplished in our lives that much faster...

SEE YOU AT THE TOP FELLAS!!!
