"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.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Dang, don't be so paranoid. He's not gonna fap to it. He wants to see what other people are working with.
There are lots of people on the internet, and you never know who's some fat guy who pretend he hooks up all day long. Or who always seems to have it so easy picking up girls and then you see a picture and you see that he's a really good looking guy and you say, "Well duh, of course he can pick up chicks."
Anyway, I'd probably post mine if there was a thread for it.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
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.

There has been some drama in a few threads around here recently getting pretty heated about someone proving who they are. I don't mind your idea though, but I'm just saying you could have picked a better time to start this thread. Then again it sounds like you didnt know what is going downYesPlease said:

If you have a issue about posting your picture your either, a) Worried about the whole rape, stalk thing that can happen sometimes when someone talks to someone else tey don't know online, or b) your just insecure about your looks and aren't everything you proclaim to be.Potbelly said:
Seriously, if I was gay I would not be on a forum about improving sucess with girls. If I was gay and wanted to have a wank I would download some gay porn rather than going to the trouble of trying to persuade someone to post a picture of himself.
I'm just hear to for advice on how to become more confident. There is some good advice on this forum but there is also a lot of bollocks from guys just sayign stuff like "OMG I JUST HAD A THREE SOME WITH THIS HB10 AND HER MUM" A lot of it is clearly see through and I just want to see if people are what they say they are.
Don't want to post your picture? Then don't.

BWAHAHAHAHA! :crackup: man the forum has been fun today, Im usually not on for so long but its been excitin lolYesPlease said:
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
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.

I'm a little underexposed, probably because I got my camera meter reading off the white shirt (hard to take pictures of yourself you know). Oh and my hair isn't done, not like it matters for a bunch of guys right?

"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.
Here is a new link on imageshack maybe it works now:

"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.
