skyballa, sucks like most cali rappers.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
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.
Wow, are you kidding me? HahahaOriginally posted by backbreaker
This is up there with Bone, est 1999 and Jay Z the Blueprint, I honestly think it's that good. Not a weak sone on the CD
What do you mean by this? Him and Brion make a good team. No worse than Dr. Dres participation in his so called produced tracks.Even though I think he needs to learn how to make his own beats
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
coudn't have said it better myself. he actually get's something most artist don't, and that's mu sic theroryOriginally posted by SELF-MASTERY
Its not hard, but getting that cool layered sound, is not possible with just a keyboard and an original idea. Hip Hop is sampling. I hate glossy synth beats. If a guy were to replicate a song like "we major" he would need a brass section. string section, and a host of session musicians, plus the musical idea. On this album kanye is the first producer in rap to get a really cool layered sound. The first musical rap album. Not every joe knows how to properly flip a sample--creativity.

"George Bush hates black people"
The latest stupidity to come out of this idiots mouth. Why people buy this trouble making big mouths album, is beyond me?
BTW, this was on national television live!
EXACTLY.....George Bush hates POOR black people, the Rich black people he doesn't mind
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.
