"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.

It's a great thing.

Now there will be even more guys out in the field who have nothing more to show for themselves than a thin veil of magic tricks.

While I have polished myself as an individual and have become the well-rounded individual most girls seek, other guys will see Mystery's show and spend tons of money and time on PUA techniques and developing fake confidence only to sacrifice developing real confidence in real things. Of course, they'll eventually figure it out (as the girls have), but they'll have a lot of catching up to do at that point.

I think it's great. :up:
 

"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.

The Pick-up Artist on VH1 tonight at 8:00pm CDT

Just thought you guys would be interested, Mystery's television show premieres on VH1 tonight (Monday, 8/06) at 8:00pm CDT.

Whether good or bad, it should be an interesting watch.
 

"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.

Scott Baio is a chode, he's a natural with looks and an acting career, which is why it was great when Mystery outgamed him in the book.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

It really isn't besides watching mystery, matador, and j-dog approach. You can see the little subtle things they do.

The editors basically edit it to give you the entertainment aspect of it. This is more like a beauty and the geek show, where each week someone gets eliminated, but in this eposide no one gets eliminated.

Too me the only part thats really helpful is watching Mystery and his crew approach, the small little segments is decent enough to see how they really are.

Everywhere you want to be.... I'm like a Visa card
Actually, it was on during the weekend. I've already seen this 'premiere'. I dunno if it was a programing error or something, but it was on.

And while it wasn't legendary or anything, it was rather enjoyable. Since we're more knowledgeable about the details of all this, I think we can get more fun out of the show than other people.

Meh, at least its better than Charm School. *shudder*

It makes me sick in the stomach to see all the dummies believing that, reality shows are ACTUALLY REAL. Why the hell would advertisers spend millions of dollars on "chance"? I mean most of the people portrayed on these shows are psychos, who can't make sound decisions in life...
If Mystery and his nail polish decides to formally go into acting, fine, I'm wishing him luck.
Actually, most of the videos shown on youtube as secretly filmed aren't, else he would have had his azz sued by now... after all they know he got some cash!
His followers here are mainly statistics, which he use to earn a GOOD LIVING! He is so cleaver, God, I almost admire him...

***Watching the show right now!!****


Guys, there's good and bad to come of this. These are my opinions, but first the bad:

I felt fear that women I sarge will catch onto routines, openers, etc. that I'm using. I think this show wont get as much exposure as we think. It''l be like a fart in the wind, vapor.

For the GOOD! Man, how many inspirational threads have you guys read, where people are trying to improve themselves and it gave you the drive to get your ass out there????? Well here's the same thing except with video. Plus I REALLY learn alot from watching aproaches on video. I think this can help us all.

Plus, this stuff doesn't work unless you have the nuts to try it. 90% of men....including me at times....dont have those nuts.

Watch it, learn what you can, but most of all, watch these guys improve and let it inspire you.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

I enjoyed the MM, although parts of it didn't appeal to me, there were parts that were good, and can be used to your advantage.

Like most PUA books you have to decipher what you like and don't like.

But anyway, i'm watching.

and..some of these guys are obviously gay.

Wow, that was gay and it seemed really phony. Nothing believable about "mystery" at all.

The part where he and his crew go into the club to show the students how its done seemed soooooo fake.

They never showed him aproach a girl from start to finish, just clips of conversations.. I'm normally not skeptical but I'm just not buying it.

Mystery, Matador and J-Dog didn't even manage a kiss close, or at least if they did, and if they did, you would think it would have been shown, but it wasn't.

Regardless, I'll watch the series because I'm interested in "The Community" and PU

I've also met both Mystery and J-Dog, and it's kinda cool seeing them on TV

But again, I subscribe to the "Direct" method, or should I say, Direct lifestyle, and not only has my game skyrocketed, but my life has changed for the better not just personally but professionally.

Wow, I like it. Its sooo funny to watch them, especially the part, "so how did you do in katrina?" "2 died" "ok, well, later then" hahaha.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.
