"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.

Terrible at sports - turn off for women?

Don't get me wrong, I'm good at some sports like table tennis and hockey but I am absolutely "terrible" at playing basketball. Once in my gym class whenever i get the basketball the only option is to pass it back to someone else. I am just genetically uncapable of playing basketball.

Once this guy was intending to pass the ball to me but I didn't notice and the ball fell into the hands of the opponent; everybody started to laugh... I began to wonder if being non-sporty is a sign of being not masculine...

I usually see big tall sporty guys successful with girls; am I just too unlucky to be bad at sports? My fitness is below average and I tried to improve but it hasn't worked. How does looking muscular and sporty influence on my attraction game?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

I'd rather be in shape and fit than have an amazing jump shot but be 25 pounds overweight.

But, I've also yet to meet a woman that really cares how good the guy she's talking to is at a particular sport unless he's playing either collegiality or professionally.

Just lift and jog. This should give you the sport body type you're looking for. Don't worry about any sport in particular.

Just stay in good physical condition and work out.

A woman does not need to know that you suck at sports, just don't let her beat you in sports because that would be like handing her your balls.

I once made the mistake of playing mini-golf on my first date with this chick who happened to be really good in mini-golfing and she kicked my ass. Suffice to say that this was the last time I saw her.

P.S - Always tell your boyz that you were drunk and that's why she beat you.

Oh and by the way guys I was drunk that day..... I really was I swear.

You can be bad at sports, if you are good at making love.. :)

Anyway, Mystery doesn't know Sh1t about sports.. still he is world's best pUa right?

All you gotta have is a strong identity...which you project to others in the best way possible.

My personal advice would be to go to gym everyday, and stay fit. That's all you need...
 

"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.

If you're good at some sports, then who cares if you're bad at basketball? There are lots of athletic people like myself who excel at some sports and are brutal at others.

Either way, as far as women are concerned, I think having a muscular, athletic looking body is much more important than being good at baseball or something. Those "tall sporty muscular guys" probably have that advantage over you with women because of their good looks and not because of their three point percentage (unless they're really good at their sport and are playing at a high level).

You're below average in fitness but anyone can get that physique if they work out and eat properly and consistently; it doesn't take a ton of coordination or athleticism.

Women won't even know that you're bad at sports anyway unless you're trying to fuuck your coed basketball teammates.
