"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.

Ive been watching the Lost seasons on netflix and the one character that really stands out from the whole crowd to me is the Jack, the doctor... I know this guy is not a DJ or a womanizer like the other dude Sawyer, but I definitely see him as a role model of a real man and a good example of how a leader should behave around other people and take charge in difficult situations...

I can see how a guy like that could attract women without even trying.... because everything he does offers VALUE to others, making sure that others survive...



what do you guys think of this character?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

he starts off alright but becomes major afc. That's every typical guy. they hold it down until the woman breaks through his defenses and he gives up. Sawyer is a real dj and a$$ at the same time.

This is something I've just started to understand, people like altruism in others because it benefits THEM. People like Jack's selflessness because it's potentially beneficial to them as an individual. I admire characters like Sawyer and Don Draper more and more because they're honest about their self-interest. Self-interest is no bad thing, especially when that self-interest is supported by self-reliance, as opposed to relying on the altruism of others .
 

"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.

Goddamn, I remember years ago going on this worthless corporate retreat, being divided into groups and being tasked to contemplate dozens of these "Lost" type island survivor scenarios. I was so naive, myself and every other member in the group praised the selfless individuals and admonished any character who acted in self-interest. Why did we do that? Because in those same circumstances we would benefit from the selfless actions of other people, it's a selfish motive.

Sawyer is a badass and less of an AFC, but Jack is more alpha due to his natural role as a leader. He may be overly selfless, but he does it an alpha way. Some girls would prefer Sawyer and others would choose Jack, depends on the girl. I would imagine higher quality girls who don't have daddy issues would choose Jack because he offers more and is a lot more together than sawyer (at least he appears to be when around everyone else). And I mean c'mon ladies he's a doctor.

Also Jack gets Kate (Evangaline Lily) nuff said.

Michele Rodriguez is about as DJ as a girl can get. I remember when her character saw Kate for the first time she looked at Jack and goes "you hittin' that?"

well I just starting watching it, i'm on season 2 lol, so Im not sure how much of an AFC Jack gets to be in the future seasons...

yea but deffinitely sawyer is is a badass DJ.. always teasing girls calling them nicknames and assuming attraction from all agirls that come close to him... he just believes they are into him, and he dominates them.

Jack is more of a pack leader, I mean he takes care of business and protects the ones in his trive... people in the show look up to him and make decisions based on whether he aproves or not...

its really interesting...
good qualities to acquire from both characters really, a good mix from both should be perfect...
