"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.

A friend of mine shown me this a few days ago:

Its not at all reliable, but the thing that stood out is that it asks what type of person you are; 'normal', 'sadistic', 'pedimistic', or 'optimistic'. It seems most of us here have a very positive, laid back view of life, so they would be classed as optimistic. The calculator shows that people who are optimistic, live the longest. Its made me curious to see if we're going to live longer than the average person. I know it sounds ridiculous...
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

but do they live hte longest because they are optimistic, or is it rather that whatever it is about them that makes them live the longest also makes them optimistic?

personally my view is that its not how long you live, its how much you live.

when your time is up, its up. regardless of what some program on the internet tells you.

Mmm, they say that the first person to live to be 1000 has already been born.
Some leading experts say we are on the verge of being able to stop and even reverse aging.

Give me your sources.

Now for my opinion based on facts:

Telomeres are the ends of chromosomes that shorten as we age, and once they disappear, you are dead since your cells fail to divide.

Trouble is, infinite telomeres results in unrestricted growth. Sounds good? Not really, because that's cancer. It's a delicate balance and we're no where NEAR getting rid of aging. Stem cells hold the best potential.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

I wasn't saying it as fact. I was just saying.

Anyway, ScienceNation on NPR did a show on it.

But like I said, there are groups of scientists that are saying we are on the verge.
I froget their method but I don't beleive it involved stem cells.

But I don't have an opinion on it. I'm not a genetic engineer.

I just calculated my death clock, and if you enter the same information twice different results pop up. Not very reliable to say the least....
