"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.

It's been a few weeks since I last posted pictures, so I figured I'll put up a gallery with the shots I took on Saturday night. I'm currently in the process of becoming a photographer. As I'm still in college, and haven't had the opportunity to work with very many models (which is changing soon hopefully), they didn't all come out as I would have liked.

Right now, I'm working on developing my own style - though with a fashion show, it's hard to do that. Basically, it was me and 2 other photographers running around and taking pictures as the opportunities presented themselves. I added to my portfolio only one of the shots I took, which wasn't even of the show itself - it was from "behind the scenes". Being "new", I was about to take pictures of all of the models changing clothes at the end of the show - until one of the other guys was like "Um, I don't think they would like it if you took pictures of them while they're all naked. The shot I added to my portfolio is a edited version of PICT2093.JPG (removed some of the flash off of the stairs, minor retouching on the face, etc... http://www.jbspencer.com/portfolio - under portrait - color, I believe...)

Anyway, here are the pictures (resized so they don't come up as huge shots):

Let me know what you all think. Obviously this isn't a show comparable to any you'd find in NYC or elsewhere, these were pretty much local girls who just happened to shop at the store putting it on, or had a friend who told them about it...

"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 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.

Canon Powershot A85 here. Excellent camera for its price range.
 

"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.
