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.
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.
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.
This is where I'm at, I think the older you get the less you need alcohol to 'loosen up' and relax. Also, I find that anything more than a drink or two numbs the whole experience...an experience that I want to savor and enjoy to the fullest.joekerr31 said:inhibits it for me. if im loaded i can get it up, but i feel about 5% of what i normally would.
im one of those guys that when i get drunk i get really relaxed and ultimately jsut wnt to sleep.
whereas for some guys when they get hammered they want to run through the street and vandalize things.![]()

I hate that feeling when you just meet a girl, and you've been doing well with her all night long, then at the end, you blow your load 5 minutes into the whole thing.
I love that phone call the next day.
Her: OMG, my stomach hurts
Me: You been throwing up or something? Hungover?
Her: No.. it hurts because of you!!!
Me: Me?? What the hell did I do?
Her: You know what you did... Well, what WE did. You left bruises all over my ass too
Me: My bad... I get a little carried away when I get excited sometimes... I'll try not to next time around
Her: Oh no... don't think I'm complaining. I enjoyed it all.
True story...
WE call it "Boozer's droop" or "Brewer's droop" down here.STR8UP said:A little hooch will loosen you up. A lot of hooch will fukk you up. Nobody wants whisky d!ck.
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.

Frank you are not curious - you posted this question because you are thinking about lubricating HER to increase your chances of banging her..Frank2500 said:Out of curiosity folks, what do you guys think? Does drinking alcohol before sex improve or inhibit one's stamina/sexual performance?
