"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.

Ok.. Might as well confess now. I'm a vancouver canucks fan. So is my wife.

Now that that's out of the way.. HOW BoUT DEM CANUCKS! They did well considering it was tryouts.

Should be a good game tonight vs Oilers.

GO CANUCKS GO!
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Torterella's system in vancouver will be an interesting transition. I really don't know much about the canuks aside from the 2011 playoffs when my team won in 7. But Torterlla advocates a defense first style play. Shot blocking, and the like. It tires the players out as was evidenced by 2012 when the rangers lost to NJ in 6 and last year when the bruins ran them over.

I suspect the sedin sisters will produce offensivly, as will kesler if he can stay healthy. Not really sure about who your top D guys are so won't speak to them. Maybe that Zach Kaisson guy will mold into a decent power forward.

pre season has more AHL prospects in the lineup than NHL regulars. Don't put much stock into the games. Obviously some of the prospects know the big club is going to take a look so those guys will probably be playing at their best.
 

"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.

Yes.. True. Lots of games to go. Lots of time for conditioning.
