"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.

"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.

I vote bjj since I've never encountered experienced judo in a street fight.

Are there any vids of mma fighters using judo?

Both are awesome, but I bet pple will underestimate judo. In a street fight on hard concrete, keeping the balance, staying on top, and slamming em into the ground is pretty effective.

I do both martial arts and its really hard for me to recommend one over the other. It really depends on the school. Both Judo and BJJ schools should be teaching both ground fighting and takedowns.

For stand up IMHO Judo is the better addition to my game.

I go BJJ. Judo is more of a throwing sport which definetly is effective, but in BJJ i have learnt both throws and submissions making it more effective. I have had MMA fights with competitors who have a strong judo discipline, and even though they've taken me to the ground successfully heaps of times, once there I dominate using ground and pound and submission
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

i would say BJJ but only if you have good standup

Kerpal, everybody however wears clothes in real life, so the grips and the rest of the gi game translates pretty damn well (especially now that longer sleeves are in use with the colder weather)

Bonez, check out vids of Karo Parysian on youtube, he does some sick throws without using a gi

Where I be at
I dabbled in BJJ for a while and can say that during our MMA competitions, our dojo always came out on top over most other single-form martial arts dojos.

Then again, it could just be that we were trained better.
