"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text 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.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Soccer is the world's biggest sport. Ronaldo and Lionel Messi would barely be recognized in the USA.

I think many politicians, musicians, religious, and business leaders are more famous.

Taylor Swift is more famous than any soccer player.

Out of all the news sites he picks a Nigerian one. That might be the least trusted news source on earth. The irony is strong with this one. You can't make this stuff up folks. Hilarious
List looks pretty believable to me. It's not like they selected some random Nigerian dude
 

"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.

:rofl:


... on a side note..
I've got this friend, he's a Nigerian Prince and he knows a way for you to triple your money. All you have to do send him your financial info and he can make it happen.
Exactly who on that list are you disputing? Clearly you must feel some of the people listed there aren't correct, so which ones?

Yeah and Reggaeton and Latin music sales greatly outpace American music in numbers too, who cares?

The #1 culture that is consumed in the world, is the American culture, for better or worse.

Let’s not even mention that Pelé and Maradonna were much better soccer players…
no one watches american music. it's just some english speakers from english speaking countries otherwise no one watches them. even justin bieber and others are not americans, ameria just invites them to their countries then claim them to be theirs

i don't think americans recognize iq and intelligence either because it's uncommon there but that doesn't mean it's not common around the world.. go to street of any non english speaking country and no stranger on street will recognize any american celebrity.. the only reason people like me even know that is because i have been surfing internet randomly for years so their names came once or twice but i knew messi and ronaldo before even starting to use any internet

Huh? You obviously don't see all of the packed/sold out concerts of American bands/performers all over the world. Just a really uninformed and ignorant take.

Taylor Swift's New Eras Tour earned over $1 BILLION last year, most of it from international tour dates. It was the first single tour that earned over $1 Billion, and it was all in a single calendar year. Elton John's Farewell Tour was the 2nd highest grossing tour of all time but that was over a 5 year period.

The top 3 World Tours last year were all American artists:

1) Taylor Swift
2) Beyonce
3) Bruce Springsteen

Next time if you are going to claim something have facts to back it up. Clearly the facts are not on your side.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

Hmm...I guess the fact that every tour date sold out within hours of tickets going on sale around the world in places that don't speak English seems once again to prove your asinine take as just that. Asinine.

For example, in Argentina, a non-English speaking country, btw, there was enough demand to fill the stadium 36x what the capacity of it was.

In Brazil, another non-English speaking country, over 1 million people queued in the pre-sale waiting room and all tickets sold out in 30 minutes. A few days later when general tickets went on sale over 2 million people were queued online waiting.

In Germany, another non-English speaking country, over 3 million people queued for tickets and again tickets sold out within minutes.

Basically your takes are uninformed, ignorant and at this point I have to believe you are simply saying whatever you want based on no factual evidence because all of it flies in the face of what you are claiming.
 

"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.
