"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.

my thread that had nothing to do with looks and everything to do with inner game got locked......is simply USING the word "looks" in the thread title improper and breaks the ***** rules of the forum?

my thread was meant to help AFCs see the way and realize that how you FEEL on the inside is the most important aspect of getting women, and it got locked

good job mods

"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.

Like it or not guys, you HAVE to pass a womans looks test to get a chance with her. Its as simple as that. Doesn't mean you have to be good looking, just means she has to like what she sees.

No amount of confidence, intelligence, social status, money or anything else means a thing if she can't get past your looks...

Nope I think the ps3 is more hype then anything I mean the only game on the console that is worth getting is Uncharted. But then again it does have the BR capability so that might sway me to get one unless HDDVD wins or the BR standalone players go lower.
 

"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.

I have a boner roffles.




No seirously man, I started a thread about Korean girls and it gets closed because it was too race oriented. I was like "aight." But at least it was about picking up women you know. I see these bullsh1t threads like "what hat should i wear" and retarded stuff like that live on. What gives?

Lord, just take me now....TAKE ME NOW!!!!

But first give me ps3 and wii, and 360. And I will join the kingdom of the clouds, or is it mushrooms?

There was nothing wrong with your initial post. However, it was spinning into yet another looks vs personality thread, and we've had plenty of those in the last few days.

I could see that too. I've had a handful of threads closed because they had gotten derailed into themes which were against policy. Best bet is to actively monitor the thread and keep it on course, let it run away and it can fall victim of getting closed. It's just the nature of the beast.

Remember a few months back when a thread would develope the Wyldfire syndrome after she posted in it? It's pretty much the same thing.
The "Wyldfire Syndrome?" Wasn't there a paper recently published in The Annals of Psychiatry" about that?
 

"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 don't generally play console games, or games of any sort much. I hear the Orange Box is amazingly good though. Anyone tried it?
