"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.

Inside her mind
I see various anwers and different opinons when it comes to drinking while out on the field. Just curious what your opinons are.

Personally I did a test, when I was sober or limited my drink to a super minimum, I noticed there lot of drunk sloppy chicks,

When It was the opposite way I was drunk there were lot of sober chicks, lol

Personally I think having a drink or two is ok, however sometimes a drink turns into 3 then 4 next thing you know, you zoned out. Hence I think being sober is personally the best, unless you out with friends and ain't trying to play the field then you can get blitzed all you want

thoughts?
 

"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.

A few drinks won't hurt. I usually limit myself to three or four drinks, depending on what I am drinking. That gives me just enough buzz to be even more witty and yet still have a pretty clear head and not slurring my words.

agreed with unflushables. A few to get loosened up and stop then, before the whole falling down, slurring, and passing out on top of people part happens

I usually drink when I'm out, but I like day game, cold approaches, and social circles for meeting women over bars and clubs. After a few years all the girls at the bars and clubs look and sound the same, with the same predictable conversations and behavior. Boring !

And drinking to excess rarely has good consequences, whether you're gaming or not. Not that I haven't done that plenty of times too lol.
 

"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.

Just don't get drunk... I see my friends getting pretty hammered around girls and flirting with them. You can tell the girls are getting a little annoyed or turned off.

Mainly, because, they are loud and keep talking and don't know when to shut up. Or the alcohol makes them say stupid things to offend the girl.

I'd suggest just have a few drinks (don't slam it down your throat) and relax. You feel good and you are more aware of what is going on.

Do whatever you want to do.

Feel like getting ripped? go for it.

Feel like staying sober, then don't drink.

It really comes down to what you feel like doing. Anyone who says, "no don't drink ... stay on your game and keep a clear head" is full of it. It's sorta this weird recovering AFC b.s. that says that the second you get drunk you automatically revert to that old AFC and you have no control over it.

If you're truly confident and secure with yourself then drunk or sober shouldn't matter. You are who you are and if you change when you drink, then you're living a lie when your sober. Sorry to break it to ya,

Really moderation and ambiance are the two right answers, but I voted for don't get super drunk. I don't know about one drink an hour, but show some self control.

Unless you're the designated driver, it makes people feel awkward when you aren't participating in the same activity they are (ever notice how drunk people talk to other drunk people, and more sober people tend to talk with the more sober people?)

On the other hand, no woman wants to go home with the ****-faced jackass that is about to hurl all over himself (or her). Stay classy. I generally get more "tipsy" than drunk when I'm trying to pick up girls, but what is really important is if you are enjoying yourself. Follow the pace of the evening, and try to have a good time.

And, for the record.. if you get super wasted while out and get really sloppy and sick you probably shouldn't be drinking at all. The get sick-drunk thing is pretty childish. know your limit.

"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.

Hahahaha, totally agree with you oakraiderz! :D


But it's not necessarily the site itself, it's more an issue of some of the people on this site not having the balls to make up a mind of their own...

I like to have just enough alcohol to get that comatose feeling.
 

"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.
