"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

These are ALL quotes from various sources which I compiled for your viewing pleasure. After reading these and are still down about rejection I really dont know what to tell you...

- There has been no death, no loss. Unwarranted. Drop it.

- Irrelevant. Past is past; I can't change it. How will this thought help my future? My plan is to meet women not dwell on them.

- You're here for no one other than yourself. You're only mission in life is to design it as you want. If a woman doesn't buy into the "kingdom" you're building to rule over, she has blatantly stated she's not a worthy queen.

- Girls come and go but YOU are forever

- Letting yourself fail in order to learn. What an awesome attitude! Learning is
what separates AFC from DJ, moron from genius.

- I got to thinking about how a DJ regards risking rejection, for a DJ, situations where you risk rejection are things you should seek out those are the situations a DJ should be hungry for. Whereas AFc's always look for situations without that possibility , (easy pickups) a DJ should be right in amongst it taking knocks and taking down digits in situations where 'normal' guys would just go "nah it can't be done" (and then wonder how it is that a DJ just stormed on in and did it!).

- Those who make ordinary efforts get ordinary results.

- "It is a fact that everyone will sometimes be rejected. Rebuffs happen to even popular people. What distinguishes the socially confident from mere mortals in their reaction to rejection. They don't attribute it to internal causes, such as their own unlike ability or inability to make friends. They assume in can result from many important factors-incompatibility, someone eases bad mood, a misunderstanding."

- "Self assured people become resilient, using the feedback they get to shape another go at acceptance."

- Failure is the one thing in life that tests your character, so consider it a blessing. In weightlifting in order to get bigger in size you use extreme resistance, feeling the burn and breaking down the muscle until it recovers even stronger. Failure does that to your character. Use it as an opportunity to learn, and allow it to strengthen you. Hey, I'm still learning. Learning is an ongoing process. So allow this game to teach you

- Rejection makes good stories.

- When you learn something you are stronger.

- We must fall in order to rise.

- Rejection is better than Regret

- "Failure" is just a stepping stone to victory.

- For every girl that wants to be "friends" there is another who wants to tear your clothes
off.

- When you let the idea of a woman rejecting you stop you from walking over
and talking to her, you're GIVING AWAY YOUR POWER.

- Be in CONTROL of EVERYTHING you do. Your life, your job...be in control when approaching a girl, and DON'T CARE SO MUCH. It's not the end of the world when you don't get that number.

- With a detached attitude, rejections should be entertaining.

- Rejection is a WIN because a) she shows up front she's not interested. b) she is saving you time, money, and your sanity since now the matter is closed.

- Rejections will give you wisdom and experience

Pook slapped the young man. “Only if you place the focus on the woman. If you do that, then you actually believe it is women who are making the choice, not you. There is no rejection; you are merely finding out if she has good taste. After all, she is looking for a guy that fits her interests and tastes. If she doesn’t like you for whatever reason, let her! And thank her for doing so!”

- We must fall in order to rise.

- Failure is only the oppurtunity to more intelligently begin

Also, look up "Let Yourself Fail" By Pook.

"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.

Great qoutes! I am about to print them off and paste a few on my bathroom mirror, especially 'women come and go, YOU are forever'.
