"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.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I don't know Rollo, you'd have to always stuff something into her mouth to keep her from expounding on her vast knowledge.Rollo Tomassi said:

Christ, a true idiot.
She begs the question though, what would Peter Griffin had answered if he was asked?

She's on course for great success in the modern world. Sexy as hell and dumb as a sack of hammers, perfect. All she needs now is breast implants,..
"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.

A true representative of America.
"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.

Alright...I'll post in her defense, from the way she reacted, she was completely caught of guard by this question, because it is an odd question.
How do you answer that without bashing our education system on public tv?
What about all the other questions she may have answered well. I haven't been following along with miss teen usa, but come on guys?
These are kids, let's not be tooo rough on them. Let them be kids and make funny kid mistakes.

"A recent pole suggests that 5th of Americans can't locate U.S. on the world map. Why do you think that is?"
Because the United States is drawn differently on the world map, than it is on the map of United States. It looks different. Daaaa!!

I wouldn't think that to be so hard. I've done the same.Francisco d'Anconia said:Having all multiple years of posts in one account without any bans is my real achievement.
Then again, look at this forum. :crazy:

The thing about the survey is that it only included 500 or so young adults (18-24yo) at random. Not quite a balanced sample in my book. Also, they didn't say whether "Americans" actually meant citizens or was it just people living in this country regardless or their nationality.Stuntmann said:

that has got to be the most ridiculous answer i have ever heard....

What? You think if survey asked a cuban, a russian, or hatitian, they wouldn't know and screw it for Americans?
YOU WRONG buddy!!
Americans are dumb, and everybody else is smart. It's the way it is.
Watched one of those win ben stains money with college kids on college break?
"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.
