"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.

Today I turned 20. Give me one piece of advice

"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.

Don't blow it inside a chick. No matter what the circumstances are, it's always better to pull out and blow it all over her, even if it's on her face.

Don't let anyone -- or any woman -- hold you back from chasing what you want most in life. Be it career sucess, fitness success, financial success -- whatever, focus on what matters most of all: YOU. Then everything else will follow in time.

"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.

Put women last on your list of importance ALWAYS. 9/10 all they'll do is hold you back - like a dead weight on your shoulders.

Don't talk so much. A lot of young guys, and I was one of them, come off as spazzes because they're nervous or trying to be funny or trying to qualify themselves. Silence can sometimes be uncomfortable, but embrace it and let the other person be uncomfortable. Let them fill the gaps by yammering on about themselves. It makes you both a good listener and mysterious.

Look at all the cool cowboys in movies. Talk as much and at the same tempo as them.

The best years of dating happen in your 30s. Use your 20s to focus on getting your life in order.
:up: Counting on that. I've made a lot of sacrifices in my 20s for the sake of pursuing a career where many are called but few are chosen. Only now starting to see progress. All the while many of my friends and cousins have been buying houses - I've gone through periods where I didn't know how I'd make rent. They'd have relatively predictable schedules, travel, and party - I'd spend a lot of my time at home by myself working on my dream and missed out on LOTS of social opportunities. They're all getting married now, feels like there's at least 3 weddings a year lately and more coming...

I am sure there'll be happy and there's nothing wrong with the careers and income they will have to go along with their white picket fences. I've just always had aspirations that go a little higher and have been willing to spend my 20s in the **** so that the rest of my life could be the one I always dreamed of having (or at least come close).

And if it doesn't work out that way I'll just blame SoSuave ;)

The world is never exactly as you see it, changing perspectives might lead to new discoveries.

I lived in a bubble a long time, and it really hurts when reality come crashing down.
 

"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.

Minimize your debt (which will also increase your credit score), invest in equities, and do not get married.

I've got more. Never focus on the obstacles, focus on your goals and deal with problems when they appear. No need to construct problems that doesn't exist yet, this is the safe route which will fvck you up. Figure out where you are, and where you're going from there. If your past is dealt with in a way you're satisfied with, then never look back for anything except useful references to solve problems now.

Never ever underestimate the power of silence and peace.

Create a budget and stick to it (include some sort of savings payment every month and get ahead as well as you can). As your income increases pay your savings account. Say out of debt. Cash is king.

"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.
