"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
The Ultimate Cologne Poll.

"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.

Touch doesn't have the same effect, at least not on my girlfriend.

what i've seen
Hanae Mori....This stuff has a vanilla to chocolate scent with just a bit of spice to put it on an even keel. It is like another scent mentioned in that you need to use quite a bit, and you also gotta let it soak in so your own scent gets through before unleashing this scent on the ladies. There. I said it. Hanae Mori in my opinion could be the next classic. (Polo, Obsession, Drakkar, CKOne, Acqua....)

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Watch it with the Versace Blue Jeans my friend, it's a very very formal and distinctive smell
.I've got it in the collection and it's great but not something I like to wear a lot. It's almost something I'd wear with a tux, since it smells so formal/dressy, but I have gotten compliments on it as not many use this cologne. Again, it's a cologne that really is an acquired taste.

Also, Hugo Boss is Hugo Boss, and not Hugo by Hugo Boss, right?
especially seeing as I've gotten compliments with both (hell pretty much all colognes by Hugo Boss that I wear get compliments).

Seriously.
Baby powder has a scent to it that women react chemically to.... and it's always a *good* reaction

Best cologne
Gidday guys,
This is my first message I've posted anywhere !
In relation to the best cologne, I would have to say that it is Gucci Envy.
When women talk to you for the first time, they get a wiff of it, and want to put their face as close as possible to your ear when they are speaking to you.
Don't put too much on ! Just enough so you can only just smell it yourself.
Good hunting!

"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.

does anyone here have the same skin chemistry as me? i am sure that skin chemistry is ultimately important in picking colognes because i heard about the l'eau d'issey from people and went to try it but it didnt smell good on me at all. the few colognes that do smell good on me are 'bora bora' by forgot who, and 'romance' by ralph lauren. the kenneth cole is ok too, does anyone know other colognes that are similar to the two above?those two match my "style" as you may call it

That was a good point, wheelin. Your advice led me to get some female opinion on the matter.
I was surprised to hear just how many women love the smell of Jean Paul Gaultier on a man. Far and away the most popular cologne out there, at least from a female perspective.
"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 can tell you that the best 2 colognes (sp?) right now that i know are REALLY nice are
Crave
and Nautica Competition
i like crave a lot, and nautica smells nice as well , but is a little less scenty.
DEFINATELY give those 2 a try.

Re: CHROME
I Will second this. Almost EVERY cologne Azzaro makes is great. Chrome has gotten me tons of compliments. In fact, I was sitting in a resturaunt just last week and this hottie waitress came all the way over just to tell me that I smelled so good, and what type of cologne I was using. I of course told her it was my natural smell.
Re: what i've seen
It isnt too spicey, too sporty, too casual or too formal. It's just right to wear for any occassion. But like Thunnus said, you need to let it soak in. I usually put 1 spray on my wrists and rub them together, 1 spray on my upper chest with my shirt off, 1 spray on one of my shirt sleeves and 1 spray over the top of my head. It sounds like a lot but it's a soft fragrance, so you do need 3-4 sprays to make it as potent as a normal cologne....but it's worth the attention it draws.
Man I thought I was the only man in the world that wore this stuff. Hanae Mori has gotten me soooo many compliments. The women at work love to smell me. There is 1 particular girl that asks me ALL the time "wow you smell great, what are you wearing?" and I always tell her the same answer, Hanae Mori, and she says "oh that's right" and giggles.

cologne is a waste of money. use oils. they last all day, are dirt cheap, and you can get the exact effect that you want. mix 'em up even. how do you think these companies make cologne? oils with alcohol (which evaporates).
you can even get the source oils that mimic all of the name brand colognes. just do a search for +"fragrant oils" +men
cinnamon, vanilla, black licorice, sandal wood, are the favorite smells for women.
the black licorice is weird, but chicks dig it for some reason? i mix 70% vanilla 30% cinnamon. nothing but compliments.
i also use AXE (Kilo) body spray. just for daily aroma and not as a cologne substitute.
