Not exactly practical in the US or most places outside of third world countries. Every man should know how to protect himself and his loved ones.
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"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 mean i wont master the secrets of sharingan taijutsu?

Concealed carry permit has come in handy many times. A group of drunk rednecks tried to start with me and probably gang rape my date in a parking lot until they saw I was packing heat. Changed their tune real quick.

Guns win every time...from a distance. The FBI's minimum safe distance is something like 18 feet. And that is for a trained fbi agent. It's not winning when you get stabbed before the other guy bleeds out.
And furthermore, if I for some reason had to carry a gun, I would make the study of grappling a top priority in my life. Lose a wrestling match over your own gun, and that is the end of you.
"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.

That sounds like a lot of martial larping.

Try that in NY or NJ.. I wish you luck and hope you have a good lawyer. In CT, not that bad though. We give the CCP out like candy.

I was thinking about going to one opening up down the street, would prefer an "MMA" one that has students fighting in Real matches locally, but it's a little too far. Tony Ferguson (Padilla) is pretty inspiring. Still, if he's up against a trained person 50lbs heavier it would be kinda bad like here:
"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.
i have ingenuine interest in proscratinating
Yes I want to pick up Muy Thai. I will in the future. The gyms are not as popular as BJJ gyms in my area though. Thanks for the fight tips man.

I would had jabbed to the right, then the left, center and an fake upper-cut only to jab again into his side. Then, right into the face with my left after contact. But hey, that's just me.
"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.

Yes, I agree. I stated on how I'd neutralize a person w/o doing serious bodily harm to them. I live in Bridgeport, CT, and in Hartford, CT prior. I've had to hand myself on more than a few times. I've been detained due to excessive force before. Luckily the actors either had a concealed weapon of some sort or were so high on drugs one would have no choice but to use excessive force to neutralize them.
As always, training is important for all. However, unless the person is a trained fighter, holding a deadily weapon or is high on meth; it shouldn't be too hard to neutralize a person. More than half don't even know how to throw a punch; let alone defend themselves from one. Most people go for the head, but with any basic training, a person would know to go for the largest part of the body... The chest, back or a combo of chest along with a sweep of the leg to take them down. After that, it's all over. At worst case scenario, one can throw a punch and then knee the dude in the groin; then lights out when he's on his knees.
Most fights only last a few seconds anyway when it's experience vs none.

If you end up in a standing guillotine, his nuts are easily grabbed. A lot of BJJ makes no sense to me. Letting people get within arm's reach of you, and STAYING there, willfully, is a big no-no in my book. Too many bad things can happen, way too fast, from too many angles. Far better to "make space' (any way that you can or have to) is a far better answer. The gun is an even better answer, as long as you also have un-armed abilities to go with it, and know how to smash people with it, too. Well over 100 million adults in the US now have the option of concealed carry. If you do and you choose not to, you're a fool.
