"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
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.
Melbourne cup!
- Thread starter CLOONEY
- Start date
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"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.
hahahaha, yeah it was like that down there. I actually nearly got into a fight down there, haha, some dude poured water on my back, just a little so I told him what the hell is he doing. Then when I turned around, he poured more on my back, hahaha, so I started swearing at him and he pizzed off! I know the dude from boxing years back, nothing changed with him, still a trouble causing drunk bum! After that, him and his bum mates tried fighting some local indian guys. haha, man some people have sad lives!Originally posted by Lost In Translation

You should have gone to the TAB though, easy money to be made.
Hopefully my next boxing prediction is right, I think it is a pretty sure bet also, but I definately wouldnt put the house on it, lol!

yeah i bet you felt paranoid collecting the $400
the TAB on Melbourne Cup day reminds me of the movie : THE WARRIORS
you go to a big gang meeting ( TAB )
lots of gang members there
now after you win you gotta make it from the TAB window to your car without getting rolled for the money
just like the warriors had to make it back to coney island without getting killed

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
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.
lol, never seen that movie. Na, when I went back to collect my money, everyone was gone, only a few others there to collect their money, some young dudes bout 18 with their beers in their hands, obviously drunk from the days celebrations, but they were fine.
Centurion, yeah that sucks! haha, I was telling my girlfriend to lend me money to bet on the horses (DIVA) (as the rest of my money is locked up and doesnt mature for another couple of weeks), but she said she aint loosing her money on my gambling also, haha. Too bad!
As for Diva, yeah that was amaizing! Definately one of the best we have ever seen! Although would be very interesting if Sainly and Might and Power didnt break down! Saintly was on his way to the Japan cup and probably would have won that also! Was one of the greatest I ever saw! And Might and Power, a true pace setter! Would have broke more track time records if the same fate didnt fall upon it! We have definately seen some great horses in recent times! Too bad none of the imports does any good very often! Remember that horse "Oscar Shindler" I think its name was? It was favourite and meant to carve up, but ended up running last or second last! Disappointing!

No way in hell that the biggest stakes race in the US... the Kentucky Derby will EVER pay $3.60... Because too many people play stupid bets.
I think Smarty Jones was the lowest price I have ever seen win the Kentucky Derby,a nd he was STILL at like eleven dollars.
However in Australia, the few times I tried to bet at their tracks, horses hardley ever come in at high prices... your betting public doesn't miss much

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Most of them gamble away all there money.
But I suppose thats because of the demographic of people I work with.
I rarely bet either, only when I think I have a damn good chance!
I usually just look at track times/distance times of the horse, weights (i.e. Is it weight for age etc), and conditions (dry, wet, etc) to determine who I will bet on. Other than that, I really am not too upto date with the best forms of betting. Although, through my few betting days, I would definatley be infront still, thanks to Makaybe Diva, Saintly and Octagonal!
I am going too. Klit to win, not by KO, just win in any manner. Probably wont pay too good odds, but still easy money! Rahman has no chance except one big punch, and Klit never been stopped in boxing. And that is including taking some lethal uppercuts by Lewis!Originally posted by [DoN.2.Da.JUaN]
you should bet your 400 on the boxing now
