"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

This is pretty much the best post on the forums and should probably be one of the first things to be put in the DJ bible
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Genesis 1:26

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:
and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle,
and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Clever twist of the "ONE". Good example of taking something that's usually a detrimental frame of mind and applying it for good use!

Its good to find a woman with the same characteristics as the "one".

Otherwise, you have the "one", at 12:30pm in the bathroom with some lubriciant and napkins. Truly the "one".
 

"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.

I loved this post. Wow. Awesome.
 

"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.

Fantastic bump/necro. :D

Survivor is right. After I met my nemesis, the one Oneitis whom I thought to be The One, I did some deep soul searching.

The most important conclusion I was able to draw from my analysis of myself and my behavior, wants, needs, thoughts, beliefs, and everything else when I suffered that major and (definately) last unanswered Oneitis, was that everything I thought she was, was merely me, my wants, needs and ideals projected onto her.

In essence: In order to get The One, you must become The One. Curious to learn what woman will follow her way up with me when I do.

This should be the basis on which the DJ bible is built really. Why isn't this stickied somewhere in the bible? ;)

Yes, you have to worry about yourself first and foremost. Most marriages are no picnics. Every man always claims he has the best bride, but a couple of years into the marriage he starts complaining about her. I've only maybe two or three happy couples in my life.
 

"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.
