Haha I love it! You're the man Crowes!
Don't think I didn't see how you and others stood up for me! Thankyou! Seriously! THX, bro.
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.

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Crowes should NEVER have been banned.
I sent you a PM explaining what happened. I'd rather not post it on the thread because it could get locked over that. Nice to see you...it's been awhile. Hope you're well.Originally posted by Page
what happened?
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.
I think Player Supreme was actually doing enough to warrant being banned. He was given another chance, too...and still behaved badly. I don't know the story with PR_L. With crowes...he was being provoked and his posts were being deleted and he got angry and said something he probably shouldn't have ONE time, which he wouldn't have done if he hadn't of been provoked by a then moderator.Originally posted by Lost In Translation

Here are a few examples, with a translation into male language. (next page)
CODED
A man must be able to protect me.
DECODED
A man must be able to spare me from all forms of discomfort. (What else could he protect her from? Robbers? An atom bomb?)
CODED
I need a man to make me feel secure
DECODED
Above all, he must keep his money worries to himself.
CODED
I must be able to look up To a man
DECODED
To be a possible candidate as a husband, he must be more intelligent, responsible, courageous,industrious and stronger than I am. Otherwise, what purpose would he
CODED
Of course I would give up my career if my husband asked me.
DECODED
Once he is earning enough money, I am never going to work again.
CODED
The only thing I want in life is to make him happy
DECODED
I will do everything in my power to stop him from knowing how much I exploit him.
CODED
I will never bother him with trivial problems.
DECODED
I'll do anything rather than keep him away from his work.
CODED
I am there for him alone.
DECODED
No other man has to work for me.
CODED
In future I shall devote my life to my family.
DECODED
I'm not going to lift another finger for the rest of my life. It's his turn now.
CODED
I don't believe in Women's Liberation.
DECODED
I'm not such a fool. I'd rather let a man do the work for me.
CODED
After all, we are living in an age of equality.
DECODED
If he thinks he can order me about, just because he earns money for me, he is sorely mistaken.
CODED
I'm so bad at doing things like that.
DECODED
That's a job he will have to do. What's he there for, anyway?
CODED
He knows absolutely everything.
DECODED
He even serves the function of an
encyclopedia.
CODED
If a couple really love each other, there is no need to get married at once.
DECODED
He is being a bit obstinate, but I'll soon get him around in bed.
CODED
I love him.
DECODED
He is an excellent workhorse.
Of course women use stock phrases like these only when there is a man around to hear them. In the company of other women they talk about their men quite normally, as they would speak of a domestic appliance, which everyone knows to be practical anyway. If a woman says, 'I've decided to give up wearing this coat - or that hat - because my boyfriend doesn't like it,' she really means, 'I might as well do him that favor. He'sdoing everything I want anyhow.'
When women are among themselves, discussing the desirable qualities of a specificman, they will never declare that they want someone to look up to, someone who will protect them. Such twaddle would he greeted with the laughter it deserves. They aresnore likely to say they want a man with such and such a job: jobs are synonymous with income level, old-age pensions, widows' endowments, and the ability to pay highlife-insurance premiums. Or a woman might well say, `The man I'm going to marry must he a little older than I, at least half a head taller, and more intelligent.' By which she means that it looks 'normal' for a somewhat older, stronger, more intelligenthuman being to provide for a younger, weaker, more stupid Creature.
WOMEN HAVE NO FEELINGS
Woman has a great many methods to manipulate a man, but to list them all here is
impossible. Suffice it to look more closely at two relatively harmless methods: a
man's 'good manners' and the suppression of his emotions.
You nailed it. I´ll tell you something shocking but rather common. I have a cousin who is going to get married in 3 months. Through MSN she was inviting me to have sex with her, one month after her marriage when she´ll be coming to my city. I asked her why she´s getting married she said:RedPill said:The only REAL reason to get married today is please someone else, whether it's her, your family, or your society. It has jack squat to do with raising kids.
All I have to say guys is always have your guard up looking for "agendas."
Meanwhile the poor chump might be thinking "Wow, how lucky I am! She´s the one, I really love her and so does she"."I don´t know, I like him, but I like you too. I think I´m getting married to get rid of my family and have my own house."
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.

That rang like a bell!! I remember when I was in my twenties women were like that. It was normal to get married, have kids etc. Unmarried mothers were slvts who were ostracised from the community. It was a sin to get divorced - just read the bible - Jesus forbidded divorce. (Tell a woman that for some laughs).All of this is recent. You have to be fifty to remember women who were resilient, sane, psychically strong and, within the limits of an often sorry existence, content. But whatever the answer, guys, the problem isn't yours.
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.
As the number of he-rockets ravaging her she-pocket increases, her ability to bond with a man is accordingly decreased.
