"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I tried my best to watch that tv series but could not stand the endless talking and drama...the only series about outlaw criminals who spend more time doing introspection and assuring women than doing criminal stuff.

My surrender came right after the ireland thing, walking dead is on his way to do the same.

Really? I kinda saw men - specifically white men - as always being on top of every other group (especially women) on TV.

That might just be me. But if you made a list of times men are debased on TV, I could probably come up with 2 examples of minorities and women being debased for your 1.

I don't usually disagree with you much, Arcbound, but on this one, I don't think we'll see eye to eye.

This quote raises a spectre in me, that I get seriously irritated by. Fair play to all masculinity, but I really do believe that the liberal media promote only positive/masculine images of minority male groups, certainly here in England.

Its like because we have such race problems, white males have to bend over backwards to be "gentlemen" and accepting and not brutish, or cant ever be patriotic because thats "not on". WELL FUKK THOSE FUKKIN CUUNTZ. It just disturbs me at seeing the pussification of men; very disturbing indeed as I come from a line of soldiers/ warriors who would turn in their graves at seeing their descendants completely wacked out with spin/bull****/manipulating policies from goverments/thinktanks/big business/ "educators".....

How did it get to this.....

How do we get our pride back......

Not into the whole religious thing..

I'm sick of dudes on here saying that there's a defined "masculine" role. Your masculine role is what you make of it. You can be a well-dressed businessman, or a burly lumberjack. Both are considered "masculine".

How can you ever say someone is less masculine for the way they dress? (unless the person is a cross dresser). That seems a bit shallow minded to me.. And what is so "masculine" about having a shallow mind?

I probably dress like the typical "emo" AFC type of guy a lot of people on here would bash. But I've played school sports, made honor roll, won in a fight, worked on a car, do trade work, etc.. A lot of "masculine" things there. It's what you make of it.

As for the whole media thing.. Fvck it! Do you really think every girl out there is trying to be a kim kardashian clone? I've met a lot of really cool charactered women. I know there's a ton of stupid AW shallow women out there, but best way to avoid them is to avoid the bars and clubs. Just do your thing. I find that when I'm doing something I love (going to the coffee shop with friends, going to a bookstore, going to a local show, any type of interesting workshop) I meet the coolest women.

Making your own rules in life as well as always following the golden rule (treat others the way you wish to be treated) is the only truth on how to be a masculine man.
 

"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.

Here's what really sucks.

anyone seen that movie Blitz with Jason Statham? In the beginning of the movie he sees some punks outside his apartment window trying to jack someone's car, so he goes outside and beats the sh!t out of them.

I have loud neighbors. I'd like to just break their door down and mark mcgwire the SH!T out of their subwoofer with my 3-iron. HOWEVER, if I did that i'd get arrested. Fvck that man. I feel like true, real masculinity is so watered down in today's society. Everyone has "rights" so people think they can be shi tty towards other people, especially arrogant stuck up cun t "girls".

That Asianlover guy once wrote how all the true alpha males are in jail. I think that dude was on to something. Society, at least what i've experienced, makes it impossible to be truly alpha. fvck it all man. I think i'm gonna go beat the hell out of my neighbors :)
