"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.

I just saw an interesting video that I found both funny and somewhat sad. Give it a look and discuss. I don't know if it has been posted here before but if it has, forgive me.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I'm suprised the feminists aren't all over this commercial like a fly on sh1t. However I think its pretty AFC, that he would run instead of getting a piece of azz, then kicking her to the curb.

But funny none the less and will likely get people to be interested in its product.

You may be right, but my guess is he didn't have a rubber and didn't want to end up here posting how he ruined his life for a piece of azz.

I love the ending line, "A moment of clarity". It is very appropriate. It seems like one of the things lacking to many posters here is "clarity: IMHO
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

What would a typical AFC do in such a situation? Jump to save her, perhaps.

I agree. The guy isn't an AFC. That's why he's the smartest man in the world. :crackup:

An American male would have saved her and then once she was on solid ground she would push him off the cliff!!! And this is what he would deserve for being Capt'N-Sav-A-Ho!!!

HahaHA, THAT VIDEO WAS FUNNY - ACTUALLY HE WAS THE all time leader of Jeopardy in dollars won in the history of the game -- I remember watching him.

Technically he was right - that is why the audience was laughing so hard!! He should have challenged.

I laughed when I watched it on Jeopardy and I laughed now when I watched it on youtube.
 

"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.
