"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.

im just curious what some of your opinions are on libraries. I have a long list of books I want to read (self-help and money making) nd I m not sure to buy them or hunt them down at libraries. It seems to me to really internalize all the information in a book one would have to own it so he has unlimited access to it as opposed to the library you cant highlight and its restricted access. This is to people that have read books such as psychocybernetics, unlimited power, the seven pillars of self esteem, rich dad poor dad and books like these. Library or buy them ?
 

"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.

i buy all my books. I like having a fresh copy to myself. I dont want some used copy who knows how many people dragged into the sh1tter with them.

Plus its good for reference and for rereading if you felt inclined to.

Haha, yeah I remember "Bookman".

"You a funny guy?"
"You ever seen a man die, Seinfeld?"


My golden rule is, borrow from the library to test drive it, then if you like it, buy it.

Kind of like dating women.

I used to work as a librarians assistant when I was in College. I rarely buy new books unless it's a cheap paperback. I always look for books in a library first. If theres something in a book you'd like to keep for easy reference every library has a copy machine you can use.

Libraries are a good way to save money. I read all the Lord of the Rings and I'm currently in the Process of Reading the Harry Potter series and I havn't spent a dime.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
