"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.

Pook

"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 Pook's dad. I've taken away his computer privileges until he cleans up his room.
 

"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 wisdom

"The context that sexual intercourse is the peak of our lives and Human existence, which it *has* to be if change over time is nothing but consistent gene swapping, creates Humans who, naturally, want to experience the peaks in life so therefore gravitate toward sexual intercourse for the sake of sexual intercourse.

Young people, who for their lives only recognize that being controlled by nature is the march of progress, have not yet understood as older people do that nature must be harnessed. Most will never understand in their lifetimes.

So what is the problem in this?

The higher state of the soul, the elliptical end from sexual intercourse, is what I identify as 'talent'. Everyone has talent, a yearning drive to do something than live a life of an animal.

Even the pimps and sluts have this yearning as well. When context never allows the soul to reach for talent but only sexual intercourse, often in an environment where this context is dominant (such as the modern world today) or when sexual intercourse comes too early in life and cuts the cord to the elliptical talent above, knowledge is never sought yet the person is full of 'opinions''."

sounds like our facebook age to me

When is Pook coming back?
I wouldn't hold your breath. He disappeared when SoSuave started to see a real influx of sensitive mangina's. It didn't help when that crazy old b!tch started that whole "OMG pook has crossed over to the dark side and is now a woman hater" bullsh!t when he veered away from the whole Tony Robbins vibe and started breaking down the psychology of our Westernized slores. Vital red pill wisdom such as hypergamy and the rationalization hamster were rarely seen as a textbook norm back then and for a legend to touch on it was obviously too much for some of these socially unaware maladaptives. The tears came:cry: and our hero probably threw up his arms and thought to himself phuck it, and rightly so.

^ This.

Also Pook advocated not getting attached to any source of "wisdom" (read his post on Manual).

And he mentioned that his posts were for him, because they helped him, and chronicled his journey. Although he certainly had extremely valid points he always said for every person it might be different and we have to go out and experience what our path is instead of worshiping another man.

Pook's words inspire me, but I understand they aren't the be-all and end-all of things. I decide my own path just like every person decides theirs. Pook might never ever come back, and you should live your life accordingly.

I doubt Pook is dead in the literal sense, but I think the man who was Pook is a different person today, these ten years later. As his blog shows, he became a bit darker and cynical with his view of women as time went on.

As a matter of fact, I have a theory that he snuck back on the forum and changed his name to "Burroughs." :crackup:

*Sniff*

Is that a faint whiff of mainstream indoctrination I smell?

Pointing out red pill truths as to what drives women's behaviour is neither dark nor is it cynical.

Wyldfire : A well past expiry date disruptive attention seeking cluster B. I'm still baffled as to how it made over 9 thousand posts before they finally banned it's crazy ass.

Great observation.... However, I was simply comparing Pook to himself.

That is the price you pay for digging deep, once you break down what women are really about then the truth is not a pretty thing.

Just go to Heartiste blog, this guy is what Pook was, on the cutting edge of things.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
