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.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
fvck man, you must be sickFluid said:fat porn > latina porn
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.
SinJester said:LOL sorry man this is pretty funny. I've never heard if a guy with this 'problem' before. Every guy I know admits he wanks and if he doesn't I just assume.
A question: Do you blow in your sleep sometimes?
Serious question, all of us guys would if we don't wank for long enough.
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.

theunflushables said:Man Colla, thats kind of a backwards way of thinking to say having a tug is "not right" its completely natural. I mean it even happens in nature. We've all seen that chimp... Hell, one time I saw a bear giving himself oral satisfaction. Its what people and animals do when they're bored.
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.
sinjester lol.poor guy i got proof check this out.http://www.yangtown.com/ebooks/revive-your-sex-drive-free-taoist-sexual-energy-techniques-ebook/SinJester said:lol collalife do you have any scientific proof? If it is self depreciating and destructive then 99% of guys are fkcing themselves up by doing it. Not because of any other reasons like being lazy, not exercising, not socialising and not eating right. Oh and by the way wouldn't masterbating basically cause the same chemical reactions as sex? That means sex is bad too! Stay away from sex it will increase your approach anxiety!
Antidonjuan one a week in your sleep sounds messy. Whats the differance between that and getting off once a week? At least you get pleasure out of one of them. No one is serioulsy suggesting you do it every day. But if you can't be sexual with yourself how are you going to ever be sexual with girls?
Of course it is bad if you do it too much, but so is everything. Anything saying it is bad is purely spiritual with no scientific proof to back it up. Besides would going in your pants drain the same amount of 'life force' as masterbating?It is a medically proven fact that any sort of "normal" sexual gratification leads to a happier person as long as it doesn't interfere with you everyday life
