"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

They've discontinued my favorite deodorant - Speed Stick Musk. I've worn it for years as my only scent and girls loved it.

I'm in the market for a replacement _antiperspirant_. My son recommends Old Spice Fiji. Any of you DJs have a recommendation you can share?
 

"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.

I use Dove Men Clean Comfort (~$5.5). Doesn't stain your shirts (mostly).

If you want to save money, you can buy Sure for $2. They have 2 scents and an unscented version which is nice if you don't want to go out with a bunch of different scents (perfume, deodorant, shaving lotion, shampoo, etc).

The active ingredient is always the same for an effective antiperspirant; Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex GLY ~15%.

Also for the less experienced men; Use scissors to trim your armpit hair in case you have a bush. Makes the deodorant more effective if it actually touches your skin.

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

Have to use a combo AP+D...AP by itself gives me a really bad painful rash after a few days...obvious allergic reaction.

I like Degree and Right Guard
