"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.

"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.

LIE WITH ME
This is an independent movie that incorporates non-simulated sex scenes. What I really liked about this movie is the sexual tension that is depicted between David (Eric Balfour) and Leila (Lauren Lee Smith) during the first 30 minutes of the film.
People typically forget that non-verbal attraction can be much more powerful than verbal attraction. The movie explores the raw relationship that David and Leila have when the two obviously enjoy sex but have trouble communicating to each other.

Yeah, I cannot believe "Rocky" is not on this list. Rocky 5? That was horrible.Jariel said:Rocky
Replace "Rocky 5" with "Rocky" (the original).
Way of GUn Program
I just got the way of gun program and all I can say is wow. I listned to the first 2 cds and its soo deep. I"m a nice guy who looks good and I think it really addresses a lot of the inner game issues that I have. Has anyone else here listened to this program yet?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

The Game - Not the lame Neil Strauss tell-all book, the Michael Douglas thriller.
The Unforgiven - Clint Eastwood struggles to rediscover his swagger.
Falling Down - Two men at war with the everyday world.
Changing Lanes - Kind of the same concept as Falling Down only in New York instead of LA.

Pacino films: Scarface vs. Carlito's Way
Hey Franky Four Fingers!
I see you've included a mighty list, many of which star Al Pacino. I grew up on movies like Scarface, but there is another movie with the man Pacino that I would have to say is my all time favorite gangster film: Carlito's Way
I'm surprised you didn't include this one. I don't know if you haven't seen it or have but didn't like it. Either way I don't want to presume anything. However, in case you, and anyone else of course, have not seen it, I highly recommend it.
I loved Scarface, but Tony Montana was freakin' crazy who got lucky too many times. Yeah... brass balls no doubt, but in the end his craziness caught up with him. But with Carlito (the main character played by Pacino) in Carlito's Way, he was a real thinking hustler, he was responsible. The movie is a glimpse into his mentality.
I'm not gonna say anything more, except that it was one of the very few movies that truly truly had me sitting on the edge of my seat towards the end.

i cant believe the Dirty Harry movies arent on there, pure manliness in those. and yeah Full Metal Jacket is very grim, brutal and bloody but its pretty much pure alphaness, Animal Mother is insane. Also John Wayne's films should be on the list.

Edit: All pages

The only movie that changed my life in the slightest was the first porn movie I jerked off too. It was an Alice in wonderland parody, and I really know it was a porn til Alice started sucking Humpty Dumpty's cok. My life hasnt been the same since, I tell you.
"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 sure if anyone has said this movie yet. But the movie Wanted has had the best transition of a beta male to alpha male that I've ever seen. I didn't even fully comprehend the difference between a beta and alpha male until I saw this movie. Other then the transition, the movie is nothing that great, but I still think it's definitely worth watching if you're wanting to know what makes a true alpha male/bad boy.
