"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.

Firstly, I've had a beard for 3 years.

But with that said, I think too many guys look all the same with the same beard, muscular, short side hair cut(or long slicked back hair) these days. Some guys complain about basic b1tches and Trixies. I can see some girls complaining about basic bro's as well.

And while girls can use makeup and wear a dress to cover up their imperfections, guys are also guilty of using a beard to cover up double-chins, weak jaw lines, acne, etc.

These are just some observations and nothing more.

Bottom line: Beards can be a good tool for a guy to increase his smv.
The muscles & beared combination is the best.. No worrying about a double chin, weak jaw line etc.. Jaw lines generally improve with lifting!
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

So I decided to grow a beard over the lockdown period, I'm lucky in the sense that my beared grows well & and pretty even all round.

I trim & shape that thing on a regular basis, nothing worse than a wild looking, shapeless beard.. I keep my hair very short & have quite a muscular frame!

Anyhow with my height being 5ft8, the muscles & now the beard have definitely given me a much more masculine look.

I added a beardless picture on a dating app and got average matches 5-6.. I then put on a picture with a beard, looking muscular & niclely cut shirt & my matches definitely went up.. More matches & more matches with 6-7

anyhow moral of the story is.. Build some muscles & grow a fukin beard.. Stop complaining like a Little biitch. Lol
Too itchy and besides, one cannot get a snug fit in the ER with bacteria, viruses and pathogens all over the place.

You need to use a good beard oil.
Tried many. I had a thick beard and it was just hell. Plus, had white heads (acne) in the skin where the beard was growing. I like scruff, but the beard, not for me. There are so many dudes with beards now, no one has originality. Everyone is starting to look the same. I'm more the type of dude who goes against the grain.

Same here. I just stick with a little light stubble.

Do you have any facial hair now, or do you just go with the clean look?
I only shave once a week, so I'm usually rocking the scruff M - F. I shave Saturday and the cycle repeats. Since I use minoxidil and topical finasteride, my hair grows back fast and thick.... all over.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

They are all medical and scientific marvels. Yes, they would be great to fvck, but that's about it. Females who look like that are to be treated like single moms.. PRACTICE ONLY. You'll never get anything serious from them. Yes, they may have the hourglass frame, but trust when I say sex gets old and boring when that's all there is. Besides, the only one who has any actual brains in the Kardashian Klan is Kris. She's so powerful, she was able o turn Bruce Jenner into a type of female and cut his penis and balls off. Kim just sucked off the right dude at the right time.

Is this the advice we came for? Grow a beard?
Grow a pair friend's. You are to focused on looks.

How do you deal with beard itch? I tried growing one, but couldn't deal with the itching.
The itchy phase typically lasts about 3 weeks. You just gotta push through it. Applying beard oil will help with the itch. Also wash and comb your beard every other day to prevent breakouts.
 

"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.
