"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

I have an acoustic guitar and I'm looking for some songs that will sound good with just an acoustic since sound effects require an electric. I'm preferably looking for some blues songs since I've only been playing for 4 months now and there good to start on, plus I like the blues.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

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.

get a bob dylan songbook his songs are the **** as far as acoustic goes.

an easy song to learn that works wonders with the ladies is put your lights on by santana ft everlast (the little hammer-on/pull offs on the chord are ****in hot)

i bet if your a young cat and you learned the latest john mayer hit you would have girls creaming in your lap as you showed them how to finger the chords

sublime is the **** too. just find something you like. chances are, if its popular its probly not impossible to play (not including old popular stuff like hendrix)

cant say im much of a blues man but what i can recommend is just learn your basic blues scale and move up and down and improvise (thats what the pros do)
blues scale goes like this(if i remember correctly)

e-2-5---------------------------------|
a------2-3-4-------------------------|
d--------------2-4--------------------|
g-------------------2-4-5-------------|
b--------------------------2-5--------|
e-------------------------------2-5---|

Thanks much, I'll keep an eye out for some of those songs. Though to be honest I never really listened to John Mayer's stuff.

What I've noticed is songs that sound good acoustic will usually sound good electric as well. Nirvana proved this with their unplugged album. There's nothing wrong with learning songs that are like this, and a lot of good blues will prove that the electric sounds equally as good on an acoustic.

Don't necessarily stay away from blues rock. You might find yourself a real gem in there. Also, don't be afraid to write your own tunes.

Go find yourself the Electric Warrior album by T.Rex (which I'm actually listening to right now). The whole album's good (except for the last song) and is quite bluesy.
 

"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.

yeh but you usually have to rework the songs a bit, the strumming usually needs to be cut down, lots of arpeggiated notes, acoustic style is different from electric...when i play acoustic versions of songs played on electric guitar theyre usually sorta different
