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.
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.
Don Joffe... u just called me an afc right? .. watch what happens with carmen & company... after i'm done with them, we will see who comes out on topOriginally posted by Don_Joffe
Most comedies are ment to make people laugh. One only laughs at the stupidity of the AFC'S moves that are pulled. aequ|tas- after last night you should take serious insight into the Will Smith approach and try it out yourself or contine being the AFC that you are.
hahaha... them calling me gay was teasing me because i had an alice-band in my hair, which them being their immature self, thought was gay... but me, being mature, knew that it was a joke, and TOOK it as a joke, and we laughed about it, and had a good time, yes. Now i'm not going to mention anything AFC about u, because i am not here to tune you and try bring you down in front of the others in the forum,but i really think that its time for you to grow up and start looking at yourself before judging others... I had a good time last night with or without macking chicks, deal with it.Originally posted by Don_Joffe
Lets not make this a personal confontation, im sure you dont want another warning, and i certainly dont. So, ill leave you with this:
watch what happens with carmen & company - Ill be watching.
going out doesnt always have to consist of macking chicks, i was with my friends and had a good time - All your friends calling you :gay: , is that what you call having a good time?
Ill be up for no further comment on the issue.
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.
I agree!Originally posted by MetalFortress
HEY GUYS
HERE'S A NOVEL IDEA
IT'S A COMEDY
BE ENTERTAINED
Stop trying to find the DJ dogma in EVERYTHING. What a shallow life, seriously. Learn to relax, have fun, and enjoy a comedy movie for what it is: A COMEDY MOVIE!!! You read far more into this than anyone else does.
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 guess life is too short to be arguing about this sh!t... Now lets go do something more worth our while rather than waste our life arguing over a movie?Originally posted by Don_Joffe
I guess they all AFC?
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.
the thing is the hot women is an AFC during her teens...thats why she can relate to the guy's action and adore him....Originally posted by Double J
I was going to post about this last night too. I thought the movie was pretty good; it had its funny parts, but I don't think it lived up to the hype. The preview made it seem bigger and better than it ending up being. It was still funny and I still recommend it.
In terms of the DJ stuff, Will Smith plays the game in accordance to his rules until he falls in love with Eva Mendes. The movie reminds me a lot of "Two Can Play at that Game" with Vivica Fox and Morris Chestnut, where it is the girl that realizes that "there are no rules when it comes to love."
Another thing I want to point out. I'll be a little vague because I don't want to play the role of spoiler here, but in the movie Will Smith tries to help an AFC accountant guy land a blondie that works for the same company as him. Even when they were out on the date, the guy was oblivious to many of the things that Smith told him not do (still danced in a wacky way, etc.). Still, the girl ended up falling for him, and I think the message being conveyed here is that women will like you for you no matter what. Kinda unrealistic.
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
