"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 like slicking my hair when it gets somewhat long but I find many find it as a nerd hairdo [which I thought was slicking to the side]. What are your opinions?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Well yeah, it looks ok on that guy, but he's a model. Ask a professional stylist what would look good for you.

Definitely do not do that style. It's stupid. I could give you quite a few reasons not to do it. And anyway, it looks like a nerd thing. It depends how long your hair is and what you want to do with it. If you think you'd look good with long hair, get the sides cut a little so that the top of your head can grow a little more, then grow your hair out a few inches. Personally, I don't like having long hair, but a lot of chicks seem to dig it. It all depends on your face shape and the type of hair you have. Don't slick it though, that's just bad.

Hairstyle really depends on the person, so you should not try to imitate people who you think look good with a certain hairstyle.


If you naturally look feminine and dorky, then the slicked-back look probably wont suit you. It all depends on your facial structure.

Nonetheless, the most important thing is that you like it and feel confident with it.
 

"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.

Generall what you want to do is have the hair style that most strongly points out your masculinity. That means, in most cases, well groomed, short hair, excluding the Ricky Martin flip. There are a lot of exceptions though, for example, guys with a wide jawline still look manly with long hair, and guys with wavy hair can grow it longer than guys with straight hair an still look good. For me, I have really curly hair, and the afro look is a pain to maintain, and takes forever to grow back if you drop it, so I keep my hair relatively short, a #1 buzz most times, or sometimes I let the top grow out and spike it. But that's only on nights when I'm going out to a party/club/restaurant. To school or work I wear a hat ****ed to one side. If you're gonna wear a hat, hairstyle is still important. I try to keep my sideburns shaped and short, so that they don't look like a mess under a clean hat, and don't neglect the back of your neck either.

Yeah, it works for this guy. but he's probably a gangster who would have you whacked if you commented. nuff said :D
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

hey i think it looks sexy. But then again, what is the opinion of a woman on this site?? :p
She's got a point- his hair looks ****e :p .

I think the slick back went out of fasion in the 50s, I'd avoid it- along with a side parting. Try messy hair, that tends to work for more people. But yeah, go ask a barber, they'll know what to do with you!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but a bunch of guys at my school straighten their hair, you know, with hair straighteners. In my opinion, this is OTT. Sure, I've got my hair bleached in parts, but straightening... sounds a lot too much like makeup. In my opinion, it's 20 minutes a day that could be better spent doing something (anything?) else. Still, anyone else have any opinions?

Yeah, slicked back is definitely too old school for my tastes.

I go with the messy, tossled look when it's longer. Gotta have some good hairgel for it though. A lot of times I just leave it ungelled and messy, and it works.

Girls love it, and guys say it's fcking sick.
It's also because i'm congruent with it.

My friends hair is kind of like that and it looks good on him. Except the bottom half of the sides is cut with #1 clippers . Hes brown and it matches him. But I think it would look stupid on white guys.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Ugh, I always did it because I grew up in a large Italian family. It pissed me off when people were like "wtf, nerdy." I want to grow my hair out but what do I do with it until it gets long enough? My hair is getting too long for spiking and tooshort for good slicking. My bangs when my hair is going straight goes down to my eyebrows.

Ditto, Dante and Crib. Italian, hairing growing down to eyebrows. Don't really know what to do with it. If I don't gel it, it can easily get messed up and look like sh*t. I look better with the long hair though. I'm thinking of letting it grow down OVER my eyebrows. Sometimes I'll do a mild side-part and sweep my bangs over to one side of my head and that looks good. But my hair is so thick that it almost never stays even if I empty a tube of gel into it. I dunno. Any suggestions anyone?
