"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Tell me, are these shoes acceptable as long as they're Really clean? http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Balance-806...ameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting

They don't make them anymore, so I buy them off of ebay. They're the best shoes I've Ever owned as far as comfort and performance (running/sports). Why can't I wear these out? I just don't feel balanced in my brown shoes, and when I don't feel balanced I don't feel secure or strong or quick on my feet.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Well, you won't give me a brand name so I can't try them out?? I think I'd look funnier in those ones you linked to to be honest. I can run a 4-4-4o in the ones I posted :p

Trust me man I would stick with those for clubs/bars.Do you need shoes to run while in the club?No you dont man.

If your talkin about day game,then dude you still DONT need running shoes while talking to girls cause you arent gonna run off while gaming them.

Chicks dig Pumas,Nike Shox,Lacoste's,Adidas,etc that look sporty but still stylish man.I say pack up those shoes

"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.

These are the shoes I wear the most, even though I have a lot of shoes:

http://www.instepdrmartens.com/data/CM956BDF981047000012-110

http://cgi.ebay.com/DR-DOC-MARTENS-...7980705QQihZ003QQcategoryZ63850QQcmdZViewItem

http://www.boots99.com/drmarten.htm

They don't have to be the Doc Marten brand, dm is worth the money but fairly expensive. Other brand names make very similar shoes. But women love these, all my GFs have like them the best.

Also, for guys worried about height, they will make you a little taller, more so than other shoes.

I always wear what I feel like myself and ignore everyone else. It depends how much you're interested in pleasing others vs. pleasing yourself. Anyway, I've found that when I'm really focused on pleasing myself over all others, people like me better. It's just that I show I'm strong-willed, or something.

hey! bozo called and he wants his shoes back. wtf are you trying to do to these guys. if a hor looks down at my feet i place my hand under her chin and lift her head up so that she is looking in my eyes. i then say, "this is not acceptable behavior. i know you wanna get a glimpse of my pork sword, but now is not the time." i usually get a raised eyebrow or at worse a little giggle. 9 out of 10 times i boff them before the evening is over.

Word.
 

"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.

OMG guyth, are my shoes fierce or what?

No offense bro, but worrying if other people will accept you for your shoes is not just mildly gay, it's pretty darn ludicrous.

The real question here is are they acceptable for YOU, and do you accept YOURSELF?

You're the only fruit here.

Poonani Maker- those shoes look fine, just wear them anywhere casual dress is acceptable.
 

"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.

Ewwwww No! Those shoes are hideous! I can see you wearing them in the mountains for running, but for the purposes of gaining attraction from women, those shoes are the pits. Sure you can wear them for the sake of comfort but no one will notice you in those at all.

I don't have that many shoes (something like 15 pairs total, sport, casual and dress) but they're all top of the line. Those would be my work shoes if I was working for water control in the pool and rec department of my property.

Thanks. I read so much about shoes being the tell-tale item that activates the woman's accept/reject mechanism inside her brain. I cleaned these shoes with fervor. I'm totally accepting of myself in looks and who I am, what I've done. Just want to get this nagging shoe problem taken care of. I do have Guys look down at my feet too as if I'm not cool. Maybe I should use the pork sword line on them?

i think there is a difference in "being free and wearing whatever makes you happy" and having zero fashion sense. if you want to wear those shoes when your hitting the grocery store then why not. but the point remains....those are pretty ugly shoes dude. trust me on this one, girls take notice of a guys shoes.

Buy some solid one color shoes. Seven of my eight trainers are all white with color trim. The other pair is all black with white trim. Still I get comments on my shoes from people all the time. Nice shoes create confidance in you as well. You step a little bit more proudly if you have good looking shoes as opposed to regular shoes that you don't notice. It's like driving a car you really like, you do it with pride instead of having a grinder. The same should be true of your clothes. Having things you can be proud of improves your overall disposition.

One pair of athletic shoes worn everywhere is how young boys dress, similar to the infamous tighty-whitey underwear, you have to grow up someday.
 

"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.
