"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.

"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.

Colts are 3 1/2 point favorites over the Saints as of right now. This is an early line and is likely to move but how does everyone feel about the spread so far? Too much, to little, just right??

Check in sports fans.

I think to make it more intense the line should be 3, but I don't mind an extra half a point. It's right where it needs to be. I like the Saints and Colts my two favorite teams. I'll be rooting for the Saints to get their first.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

I'm not even a football fan but I want the colts to crush the saints... I'm just upset about the Vikings, it was just unfortunate about the last play in the forth and the coin flip...

PLEASE punish those cheaters...!!

24 hours later and the colts are now 5 1/2 point favorites over the saints. I'm not sure how many of you know about sports betting but som very wealthy people must have dropped a whole lot of money on Indy yesterday for the line to have moved that much in just one day. Two points is a huge move for such a small period of time.

"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.

My room mate made 80 bucks betting on the Saints. Sad thing is she doesn't know anything about football and I've been telling her all week she shouldn't have bet against Manning. Here is my foot entering my mouth.

I picked up a $100 and my roommate won $300 on our superbowl squares. I was rooting for the Saints, but only placed a bet on the points. Part of me really didn't think the Saints would pull out a win.

My friend made out good in this game. He had 200 dollars of total bets. I don't remember all of his bets because most of them were losers but one of them stands out. He bet that the saints would win straight up, that the saints would recover an onside kick, and the saints would get a two point conversion all on one ticket. I'm not sure how much he placed but he got all his money back and some change on top. The rest of his bets were just as ludicrous as this one as well. One of them had like multiple safeties but paid like 2000 to 1. Still it was all really funny.

On another note, I don't think I've been to a super bowl party that was that small yet had that many types of dip before.
