"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.

Is it possible to make "subsections" on these forums? possibly a subsection under Health and Fitness mainly for diet, one mainly for routines/exercises etc?

seconded!

I think a split between weight training/cardio, nutrition, and general health would be appropriate. Or sports-specific forums as well.

Good idea, would make stuff a lot easier
 

"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.

you mean we could talk with guys who want to learn more about lifting or losing bodyfat w/o having to read about penis problems (or worse)? brilliant!

though I think nutrition & exercise go hand-in-hand......

they do, but they're both very broad topics which deserve a sub-forum of their own! they would complement each other.

Haha, we'll have a masturbation subforum, an acne subforum... :D
I would imagine they would leave that one alone lol


Health & Fitness
- Routines and Exercises
- Nutrition
- General Discussion

would seem to be a good layout?

This way we wouldn't have to sort through the endless "i have a pimple and now its a chicken, what do i do?" threads. those can be left for the general discussion section. Those who are interested in diet, bam. Those interested in exercise? Bam.

rathar tehn that, I would suggest a topic catagory selection for this. seperating threads into forums is a great way in splitting apart potential posters.

example:

Health & Fitness
  • Routines and Exercises
  • Nutrition
  • General Discussion

aside from the fact that the parent forum should be for general discussion, I would not visit the nutriotion forum as often as the routines forum. for some people, they will never venture into the subforums.

howeever, with a thread prefix or graphical thread prefix, threads will be easily distinguishafiable(yes my spelling sucks).

[Exercise] am i going too heavy?
[exercise] how can i spot-reduce?
[nutriotion] do strawberries make my butt bigger?
[exercise] best time to go to the gym


edit: secondly, mods do not have the ability to add forums, only superadmins do.

it's worth a shot. I believe people would visit the nutrition section more often than you think when they realize how important it is.
 

"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.
