You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
Would you want your girl to follow that rule? She's allowed to **** guys as long as she doesn't get penetrated 10 times, so technically it doesn't count as sex?runner83 said:I hate to be a downer, but that does not count as s ===) x, you are still a virgin. A minimum of 10 strokes of full penetration is required.
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.
Well, if you read through my journal, you'd know that I started out at an extremely low point. This post sums it up pretty well.Congrats, I always enjoy reading success stories!
However, I was a bit disheartened by the fact that you've been here for 3 years and according to this hot girl are suave and good looking, yet this is your first time having sex.
Can you explain this, cause it kinda makes me want to jump off a bridge hahaha
I'm currently in Florida.Was it on another continent?
I finally see that now. Getting laid for the first time lifted a huge mental block/insecurity from me. It was something that was just still bothering me. And you are right, I changed myself around completely and getting laid became a byproduct of that.That's fantastic, man! Look at all of the progress you've made! "Getting laid" doesn't really matter. Lots of guys use it in terms of a 1 time thing like "once I get laid I'll be a totally different person", (I'm pretty sure this is unconscious) you know, that kind of mindset. I think that a lifestyle of getting laid is so much more desirable than just losing your virginity. I suppose you'd want to achieve that in steps and stages though. You are an inspiration to guys like me who are on the lower levels seeking to make it to the top. Step by step is the way to go.
You rock snowdog!
Thank you. I'm suspecting it's because of the rubber, because once I put that on, I went down pretty much immediately. This happened twice. I bought those XL ones and I don't have the problem anymore.I'm very happy for you Snowdog. I think I remember seeing some of your posts two-three years old. I've only come back to this forum this week. I would send you cake, but I can only imagine how much shipping would cost me.
I lost my virginity less than a year old too. The first time always sucks, but it is a milestone for you. I have no doubt that you will have many more sexual exploits, and they will get better and better every time. The best sex is usually when I don't care, I lose myself to lust and passion. Thats when I have no problem getting hard, because well... things just keep escalating and escalating until the final "eruption".
But, If I have to think about ****, thats when I start to keep soft... etc... etc.. its just horrible.
Anyway.. enjoy your new status!
Thank you, man. That last part is maybe even more valuable in the end. It's so good to not give a sh*t and just be yourself.Nice Snow! I'm really happy for ya man. I'm glad to see you did it because it shows that with effort even in this department of your life you can do anything. And on top of that you've broken free from the matrix. Awesome man.
Hahhahaha thanks dude.Would you want your girl to follow that rule? She's allowed to **** guys as long as she doesn't get penetrated 10 times, so technically it doesn't count as sex?
Congrats tho snowdog, good to see improvement.
When I'll get back in NL we should hang out.I've been reading everything for a while and you are doing great. I really recognize myself in you and you are doing awesome man!
I Just wanted to say to you: Veel succes en je kan serieus trots op jezelf zijn! Je bent behoorlijk ver gekomen sinds het begin.
Good luck and don't forget the most important thing. To have fun ;-)
**** yeaSpring break beach. We are meeting up!
Now that's more like it! Good stuff man!snowdog said:I'm also not a virgin anymore by Runner83's standards now, just fyi. I'm constantly getting texts from this girl about how amazing she finds me and how wet she is now thinking about me and **** like that and every time we see each other she basically tries to rape me.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
I feel I'm finally ready to acknowledge this now. I just felt I had a piece missing in me all the goddamn time so far.No man of true greatness will ever be remembered for the chicks he banged.
Instead he will be remembered for the worthwhile achievements in his life. Be that man!
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.
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.
