We all tend to view the world through our own lens of reality.
To some she may well be a 10. To me she is a cute 7.

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.
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
He makes a good point. This is afterall "Anything Else".SmokeX said:Just a random post in anything else, Felt like doing it.
Good point, I hadn't thought of that. It always pissed me off that I have to get a 2.0 GPA in school (which is like 65%), even though the cut-off mark is 50%.Mctwist4 said:I agree with you, but when schools use a system of grading where 70 - 79% is considered average, people are going to apply the same same system to the rating and grading of most other things. There's really nothing we can do about it.

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Way to be offtopic. Lemme guess, you're gonna add me now :yawn:~attrACTION~ said:"This message is hidden because SmokeX is on your ignore list."
Ah, I love the ignore list! I don't know why I didn't start using it earlier. It makes visiting SoSuave much more pleasant.

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.
What was the point of this gay ass post? Are you that much of a drama queen that you need to derail somebody elses thread?~attrACTION~ said:"This message is hidden because SmokeX is on your ignore list."

Slevin - Apparently so. hahaSlevin said:What was the point of this gay ass post? Are you that much of a drama queen that you need to derail somebody elses thread?
:yes:TheNewGuy said:Lemme guess, you're gonna add me now
No. In another thread, SmokeX claimed that he was a homosexual. I think it's somewhat disturbing having a GAY member on the SoSuave forum. Especially since this is not GaySuave.Slevin said:What was the point of this gay ass post? Are you that much of a drama queen that you need to derail somebody elses thread?
Ummmm......~attrACTION~ said:I have nothing against homosexuals
So you're a lying bigot, got it!I only add people who are blatantly GAY
Have fun burying your head in the sand, you worthless bigot!!Congratulations, you make 25.
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.
the funny thing is.... is that you just made his girl look worse than the pictures that he posted.Docs said:^
She's 18. I'll see if I can dig though my collections of pictures and show you a better one of my mate's girl.

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.
