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.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Omigosh, are you talking about your 21 year old?Desdinova said:Do you find that you're a magnet for women who are wanting to move out of their parents' house? I almost get the feeling that once women find out I own my own house, they see it as a free ticket to move out.
I'm a magnet for women before they see my house. :rockon:Desdinova said:Do you find that you're a magnet for women who are wanting to move out of their parents' house?
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Actually, I'm more or less referring to the 34 year old. She lived with her parents because she apparently has so much debt that she can't afford to live on her own. She also said she 'can't live alone'.zekko said:Omigosh, are you talking about your 21 year old?
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.
Ha, apparently it works both ways. I have definitely known some guys who liked to sponge off of women who had a place to live.penkitten said:yes i went through that with guys when i bought my own house. so.... i became very careful on who i told where i lived.
