"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.

Didn't see any posts on here about this, what do you guys think about this situation? I say the entire leadership needs to step down, the entire situation is just grossly irresponsible.
 

"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.

Agreed. No excuse to allow something of this magnitude to occur. Some jobs have room for error but care of a city's water supply would not be one of them.

This reminds me of the Gulf oil spill. Everyone is angry and looking to blame someone, but there is really no one to blame. It is simply a huge accident. They'll learn from it, and that mistake won't be made again, just as in the deep water drilling.

It's absolutely disgusting and annoying. Everyone from the governor to the city officials have a share of the blame to take. If this were to happen in a more affluent city, heads would roll.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

Detroit as an entirety is a disgrace. Something has to be done. A city can't be THAT bad forever can it?

The movie was about the true case of erin brockivach. She sued and won. Now she's a huge advocate for others. Look her up on social media. She broke this flint mi story almost a year ago. Why didn't anyone listen?
