"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.

"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.

Never have, never will. Although, luckily I'm tall enough where this is not ever really a problem.

Not a sexy thing. She'd have to seriously make up for it on other points as far as I'm concerned.
 

"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.

Yep, but by only an inch or two when she was wearing heels, no big deal.

Yep I have on a few occasions. Taller girls have trouble finding guys willing to go after them. Most of the time the male ego makes them feel inferior if the fairer sex trumps them in some way. That spells free lunch for me, since I check my ego at the door for many issues.

I'm only attracted to short women, all the girls I ever dated were shorter than me. I looooved it when these tiny girls rose their head to look at me, and when they sought the comfort of my arms.

I used to fool myself into think I dug the shorter chicks since I'm a short guy. I soon figured, I'll go for whatever I like regardless of height. If they don't have a problem with it, I won't either.
 

"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.

not seriously dated a taller girl as in stands WAY OUT but yes a few who are slightly taller than I am.. and MAN it has it's funny moments. but I don't really care about that, though I do avoided walking around with a few of them as I had been with 2 who were really taller but than again I don't do much like going shopping with girls or go take walk or something, I mostly go over to their place or they come over to my place.

I personally couldn't date a man shorter than me.

I have a thing for tall men.

BUT, if a cute shortie were to be super cool, charming and charismatic, I may just ditch my silly wants and give him a chance.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Heh, the percentage surprised me.

Me personally, I have a short-girl fetish hehe. She has to be able to give me a BJ without needing to kneel down.

Nah just kidding, but I really love super short women. Some guys love em just a bit shorter.

I'm surprised how anyone could like a taller woman than himself, but then again tastes vary.

I'm 6 feet, so hardly any chick is taller than me.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.
