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.
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.
But my shrink recommends taking it before a stressful situation (I also have panic attacks)real2 said:Even after plastic surgery, thousands of women still don't overcome their insecurity about themselves.
Overcome your inhibitions with practice!!
General anxiety is faced by absolutely everyone on this planet at one point or another; valium is just a temporary quick-fix.
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.
True . Its hard . But i force myself to do it . 3 seconds .real2 said:Harder said than done!!
Even for myself sometimes, and I'm pro at some DJ techniques :cheer:
So what do you do after you've tried to bring your self to do this hundreds of times but still fail to act?Daddy The Pimp said:True . Its hard . But i force myself to do it . 3 seconds .
3 , 2 , 1 and im IN . I just spit my prepared opener , hook them and keep the conversation going through routines and other sh1t . Than change to natural conversations .
This technique is GOOD because it reduces AA . Doesnt let your mind thinking about negative things , dont let the fear grow inside you . Within 3 seconds , you're IN .
So , before going out , prepare some openers . And the moment you see the girl you're attracted , dont think about it . Just go in . Force yourself in . This is the best way to defeat AA and dont let your fear hold you back .
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.

Yeah that's great advice, everyone who suffers from anxiety and mental blocks should just kill themselves.Daddy The Pimp said:No fvcking way to fail . If you dont have control over your body , go kill yourself .
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.

Weed dose not reduce anxiety.Rhoto said:lr2spllplzkthx.![]()
OP -But why not just smoke weed? It's cheaper and less addictive.
I partially agree with this, but disagree greatly too. I don't have time to discuss it at this moment, but I will check back if this thread doesn't devolve.wolf116 said:Weed dose not reduce anxiety.

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.
