"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.

I kind of wonder why there isn't a thread on this movie here. It covers several basic DJ principles, even if it doesn't go into advanced mackology.

There are 4 important male characters in the movie, 3 of whom try to help one of them, who is a virgin, to learn sexual skills and get laid. They are:

Andy, main character, 40 year-old virgin
Jay, Black player,
David, AFC with serious oneitis.
Cal, a dude who gets laid frequently via going after easy chicks.

While it's a comedy, I think it hits on some of the important scenarios, even if the guy didn't always do the "DJ" move at the time.

For example, in one scenario, the lead female throws the "no sex" test at him. He throws it back at her, she escalates, it gets out of control, and they end up with a 20 dates before sex agreement. Definitely not a DJ move on his part, but I've had the "no-sex" test thrown at me before, and it is something that anyone aspiring to DJ or PUA status has to deal with.

Did anyone see any good advice in it, or just have any useful comments based on it?
 

"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.

Because it's hilarious to see Steve Carrell get hair brutally ripped off his chest :)

On a more serious note, some really hairy dudes wax stuff. My one high school spanish teacher used to wax his back cause it was hairy, and he pulls girls like no one's business. I know this cause we went to Spain with spanish club and went out to clubs, it was astounding to see the man mack on so many women.

It's just a style choice. Too much hair can be unappealing to some women. Some go for lots of hair, so it's just a thing.
 

"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.
