I.A.F.Y.B.
Master Don Juan
Last Man Standing, if you are reading my post I want to say that I am finally getting what your saying. I need more knowledge though before its too late.
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.
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.
And this is the beginning of your end!!!!I.A.F.Y.B. said:Indeed I am! But, sadly. I'm starting to fall in love with my ho' :nervous:
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.
I didn't think he'd take the bait. Guess I was wrong. Nice one!I.A.F.Y.B. said:Then, shall the light shine upon my clouded mind before it gets too dark to see!!! For it is I that looks for a woman!
Then to save yourself you shall seek her feminine nature, as naturally designed!!!!!I.A.F.Y.B. said:Then, shall the light shine upon my clouded mind before it gets too dark to see!!! For it is I that looks for a woman!
It is simple!! Men and women were created to be with one another and NOT separate - can we create offspring otherwise??? Would you/we exist otherwise?? When you have the maximum of "two" in the creative/upbringing process then you must have one that dominates!!! This is elementary!! There is NOT a majority between "two" parties - so to create cohesion only one can dominate!!! Elementary!!I.A.F.Y.B. said:This is gonna take sometime reading and understanding but, none the less I will repost my new found wisdom.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
just asking, what does "bump" mean and why do people post it?bump
Well she has been around the block before me.... But, she acts how a woman should. She cooks me food, she follows my lead, takes care of me when I'm sick, drunk or hurt, gives me back rubs and ect. She is submissive to me of how a woman should be explained in "The Natural Order Of Things." But, the fact she has had multiple sex partners bugs me a little. (They weren't random guys or ONS's.) To me her IL is high and we have a good relationship. I am still young and have plenty of more girls to meet and qualify for myself. She is not my first gf but not the last. I just need to look at her actions and dig deep into myself and figure out what it is I really want.Obsidian said:Just read his damn article, IAFYB. It's not that hard to understand.
Btw, how horish is your ho? It's probably not good to fall in love with her.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Very good point and advice. It seems genuine but, I will always protect my heart if something feels astray.Last Man Standing said:Iafyb, yes, you must know what you want, but more importantly is to know what she wants - is her submissiveness an "act" because she wants something from you, or is it genuine affection? This is very important to know because many guys here are in LTRs and think their girl has genuine affection for them but then suddenly she gets cold and leaves, and the guy is dumbfounded why she grew distant. The reason is that there is always another guy in the picture - and then the guy feels betrayed, and rightfully so!! Know the intentions of the person who you are with!! Don't ask her - just observe her intently!!

ValleyDJing said:LMS...you remind me of the character in Tucker Max's book, "Slingblade".
I'm trying to figure out where you stand. You are quick to label women hors and whatnot, but I have never really heard what defines a women as a hor. What makes a hor? A non-virgin? A chick who has had sex with under 5 men? Under 10? What?
DevanE said:LMS...I have been trying to free myself from the hor Matrix as well but considering my dashing looks and charm, it seems that I am getting "sucked" back into it repeatedly, consistently and more aggressively than ever. My circuits keep being overridden and it looks as if the hor matrix gets stronger every time I try to decrypt myself from it and terminate the sequence. What do I do because I might just give up and accept the Matrix for what it is and be lost in the abyss of perpetual blindness. Save me LMS !!!!! SAAAAAAAAAAAAVEE MEEEEEE!!!!!! :woo:
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.
