When is Pook coming back?
"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.
Pook
- Thread starter D.J. King Allister
- Start date
"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.

he is not, he had his last hurrah years ago, and left us with many many wise words of advice. 'the book of pook' is in pdf format on the bible page.
antidumps machine is now in the bible (this was put together by pook). or you can just search his name for all old posts still around...

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

FYI, he posts under gspshields2
"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.

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

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.

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.
"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.

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

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.

Great observation.... However, I was simply comparing Pook to himself.( . )( . ) said:
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.The Gambler said:
Just go to Heartiste blog, this guy is what Pook was, on the cutting edge of things.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
pook left sosuave and then wrote articles on : http://www.dapook.blogspot.com/
his last article was in 2008. he is a legend
