"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Kevin Samuels has passed away

"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.

Kevin Samuels, a YouTuber who became known for his controversial relationship advice, has died, his mother confirmed to NBC News. Rumors of his death first circulated on social media Thursday night

Have no idea why you guys take advices from a guy that was living with his mother at that age , for sure his advice was not coming from a place of high experience

I’m not that old but I’ve learned that everyone has something fueling them. There’s no such thing as this 100% clean, efficient vegan super warrior person.

What’s with all the unfounded slander? Are you a feminist?
 

"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.

Not always drugs. When someone is operating in their passion they will be supercharged. Add in good nutrition, great workouts even moreso. Remove bad habits, even more so. Remove time wasters even more so. Add in having the luxury and style items you desire, even more so. Throw on money and admiration even more so. The driver could be being the best you can be and enjoying your life fully.

what is feminist about calling out a guy that is writing about women from the basement of his mothers house ?
He wasn’t. His mom found out about his passing through social media. How that story reached you as “He wrote from his mother’s basement” is at the very least an example of distorted information and completely false.

But I’m sure feminists would love to believe it’s true about a man who told average women that marrying an average man is not “settling” and most likely the best outcome.

so what was his life then ?
All this red pill towards black pill guys are more or less the same

who is living the life has little to no time to write about it
 

"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.

It’s sad that KS has died, I would listen to his podcasts occasionally and found them entertaining. I think it was more entertainment than advise. I like the fact that he had women call in, because they basically confirmed exactly what he was saying.

I had no idea he was into drugs, that shocked me. Funny that some people here think he lived in his mom’s basement, that made me laugh and as Kevin would have said “that is bull****”.

I guess it depends on your job..If you are over here retired in some cabin playing video games all day then sure but if you’re in a stressful job like KS, I’ll call cap lol
 

"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.

Man,it sucks that KS has passed.He was,in my opinion, the manosphere speaker with the most credibility.He was who he said he was.He was never afraid to show his work.

He was obviously very much influenced by Rollo and the Rational Male,but he was still able to bring new original ideas and perspectives to the table.He stopped being a giver of advice long ago, and merely became an observer of truths.He excelled at showing women the extent of their own folly and entitlement.

His most eye opening questions were when he’d ask some entitled,ran through,train wreck of a single mother who wanted a high value man if she would be okay with her son marrying a woman like her.That always stopped them in their tracks.

He wasn’t a PUA guru.He didn’t claim to be one.He made it clear that he was only willing to deal with high value men,which he did.He called himself an image consultant,thus the best lessons to be learned from him were from observation of his demeanour,his style,his confidence and how he dealt with crazy feminists the ilk of which most of this forum complains.(They were always on his show.)

He made me realize the importance of details,going the extra mile to present yourself in the best light,having your fragrance on point,taking up a skin care routine,etc.

It surprises me to see he has critics here.Sure,a lot of his content was geared towards the African American community,but a lot of the principles were universal, and there was something there for every man.But I suppose when you try to set yourself apart from the crowd,you’ll get critics.Everyone’s got critics,heck,even God Himself has critics.

I think if all you got from his show was entertainment then you missed the point.Sure,he went viral for calling out and torching entitled women but he was just as likely to torch a sloppy,underachieving,entitled man,which he did multiple times on his show.

I don’t know if he chose the name “godfather” or if it was given to him,but he certainly merited it.

RIP KS.

This depicts that you neither ever heard of him nor saw any of his content.
