"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

usually, you can identify the cult and its members by the lingo:

they never say "guy", "dude" or even "male"... or anything as casual as that.

it is always "MAN" and is uttered with tremendous self-seriousness.

you can hear its rumblings around this site certainly. you can also hear it from time to time in everything from men's health magazine to esquire.
------------------------------------------------------

but this is just as silly as when anyone identifies with anything with deadly seriousness without the benefit of DISTANCE, PERSPECTIVE and HUMOR.

whether its conservatism, liberalism, feminaziism or the promise keepers. blind dedication to anything is a chumps' endeavor....

and why is it that the bottom line is almost always some guy or gal peddling something?

HA!

"life is pain. anyone who tells you different is trying to sell you something."

were truer words ever spoken?

to paraphrase king solomon, everything is shyt. and this - this life - all of this - is all a nutty joke.

--------------------------------------------------

cynicism is your friend.

i'm not advocating not believing in anything or even not believing in yourself.

but be willing to take a step back from whatever it is you believe holds the keys to the kingdom and squint at it every now and then.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

was thinking more about it, and I came to think that maybe it´s not a bad idea to give the cards as a routine, to most girls you approach.

But the ones that you are really interested, I think it´s more safe to go for the digits - you don´t want to miss a HB9 only because she lost your card or just doesn´t pick up the phone and call you!!!

I personally wouldn´t still do it - I enjoy approaching the girl and getting her digits. And who´s the lucky girl than gets to go out with me, I´ll just call her. If something goes wrong, I still have other choices left.

But, everyone has their own style. If you find yours effective, then it´s not AFCish at all!!! I think in most things there are no absolutely right or wrong ways to do it. There is three ways to do things, the bad way, the good way, and then there is my way Or how was it?

"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.

Aye brothers, It seems we have a disbeliever amongst ourselves. I say lets put this heathen six feet under the earth, so that he can never again mar the name of our brotherhood.

Life is Pain...

... and pleasure, and challenge, and fun, and courage, and love, and rage, and shovelling snow, and laying on a beach, and the glory of sexual contact, and the dryness of evenings alone without a choice...

"What you focus on determines what you miss" - me

By the way, "believing in one's self" is a complete and total crock. The madman, the arrogant bastard (that's me!), the girlyman, the success all share one thing in common: They believe in themselves.

Strength comes from understanding that you do NOT know everything, and that there are personal depths that you have not, and may never, explore.

Then again, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm just an arrogant bastard...
