I was just curious if anyone has seen any of the annihilation method DVDs - if so, what did you think? I know they are hard to find b/c only 400 copies were made.
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.
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.
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.
4000 for some DVDs if EEfin crazy!! No way they could have been that much..no piece of recreational software is that much...Chase Dat Skuht said:Id like to bump this up and see other peoples opinions. I'm in the process of getting The Annihilation Method, it sounds pretty good to me. He sold the 400 copies for 4 grand each, so they better be good.
Anyway, lets hear some more opinions
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.
I have seen them and they are not worth $4000 man. Think about it, it's about 10 hours of video for $4000. That works out to $400 per hour. No instruction is worth $400 per hour, well maybe a hooker.Ace_McGregor said:I was just curious if anyone has seen any of the annihilation method DVDs - if so, what did you think?

Neil Strauss wrote The Game. He also goes by the nick-name Style. It's an extremely entertaining read and gives a few tips on pick up along the way. This book is definitely worth owning.Jayer said:Sounds like its crap....
Ever.. Who wrote the game?
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
