"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I’d take my chances being an nfl/nba player gaming chicks than an average pua guy lol. They don’t really need to go out approaching girls because girls find them.
True. But also remember many are gold diggers. Even your 300lb NFL players get hot wives when they're big blocking tubs of lard that if they were not a pro player they'd only land a land whales.

We shouldn't be comparing sports players and celebs to us SS forum members. They're 1 percent of the population. Seriously no matter how hard you work on yourself you're not going to pickup women like a Tiger Woods or Auston Matthews or Albert Pujols now that he's single.

They live in another World than we do, associate with totally different people too. Both men and women.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

This is true. Pujols underachieved in the 2000s by marrying a woman who was already a single mom. He married her before he got to the pros.

Even when relationships exceed 5 years, as Tom Brady's did, women start to get bored in monogamy.
My friends are being to change their behaviour and let them wife's to have an occasional sex experience.

Tom Brady did get roasted badly about taking an L with Gisele.

Inside her mind
Cannot believe how far from reality most posters are going with this and bringing up stuff that has nothing to do with anything regarding the issues.
Most posters are keyboard jockies with limited experience or have a idealized view of women and relationships which just isn't realistic. People have to remember Giselle Bunchen met Tom when Tom left Bridget Moynahan

stranded for her while she was prego!!!
I'm honestly shocked Giselle and Tom lasted that long
 

"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.

Oh boy, where do I even start with this. For one, Tom Brady is by far one of my favorite athletes on the planet and what he has done in the NFL will never be rivaled by anyone else that comes along. Tom is by far the GOAT football player and even his situation with his wife is not that bad because apparently, she makes more money than he does!

However, as much as I love the work he has done on the field, I do think that Brady always gave off that simpish nice guy image. People don't realize it but he was a late bloomer. Even though he played football at Michigan, he was taken in the 6th round of the NFL draft and didn't grow into his looks until after winning a couple of Superbowls. Of course a guy like that happily wives up a supermodel. Even on the field and overall, he gave off too much of a clean guy sort of image. I think it had to do with the classy organization that the Patriots tried to make themselves out to be (despite Spy Gate and Deflate Gate lol).

I'll contrast him to someone like Cristiano Ronaldo who was also an ugly duckling before peaking at United but had his fair share of fun before getting married with a kid. The other one is obviously one of the game GOATs himself, Leonardo DiCaprio.

I get into it all the time with dudes on here who say "just work on yourself and it will come, no need to game". That is BS and some celebs are a testament to that. Just because you have money and status does not mean you will slay that much.

It is why, despite how much guys hate him, what Dan Bilzerian has done has been amazing.
Good point but if tom isnt alpha I dont know who is.

Guys that dominate the red pill consensus hate guys like Brady. Brady is indisputably the best there ever was at his position, he is a gazillionaire and is a commander of men and has a soft touch. Dudes can’t wrap their head around it because they are not remotely at that level
 

"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.

Ah yes, your going to tell us about Brady's level from the comfort of some backwater forum and then posture you are somewhat on Brady's level to attain this understanding everybody else doesn't have.

I didn't hate on Brady by the way, I was hating on his roast and rightfully so, it's cringe celebrity worship

This clearly hit a nerve that I didn’t intend to hit. By all means if you want to point to 50 year aged married men on YouTube that beg viewers for algorithm clicks as examples of masculine achievement over Tom Brady please don’t ever get the impression I intended to dissuade you. Also if I ever get to the level of posts on this ‘backwater forum’ that you have achieved, promise to take me to Peter Lugers?

99.99999999999% of men will never be able to about to what Tom Brady has accomplished and he can't even tame toxic femininity. This is guy is 6ft 4, a millionaire, Chad looking, white guy, a household name, Top NFL QB, and he still took a big L. Guys don't feel down when a girl starts bull shvtting because it's inevitable at this point.
I am by no means a top tier guy and I am not that negative in my outlook. If I sense that she is losing respect for me then I dump her. It's about taking charge of your life and living to your standards.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Let me explain it to you.


Beta and alpa really do exist. But its jargon, used to catogorize and yet simplify things. If you know you know, just like there's the nage waza in judo. If you dont know you won't care.

There's the beta man. The man who tries to please everyone and never feels good enough. He also never takes risks or action. Sometimes such a man is lucky, and he eases through life. Always dependent upon other people's initiatives. But God forbid he ever takes a dive in life! If he does fall back, he'll end up as a bumb. The modern beta might even take the incel route completely voluntary.

Then we have the alpha. The alpha takes charge and always demands the best from himself and other. He is unapologetic about who he is, thus he naturally tends to dominate especially beta men. The beta both fear and hate him. The beta somehow senses that the women he wants, actually wants the Alpha. The alpha takes risks, falls hard, gets back up and tries again until he's successful. The alpha knows that people don't wanna name him as such, but that doesn't matter because he doesn't need validation from other people.

Evert DJ should strive to be a monster alpha. Makes life so much easier..

Alpha/ beta stuff is funny always to me. But there is truth in it. I have seen most traits so far of putting me in the alpha camp from what online says. Though I think it is only one part of me. How I live affects how I carry myself. My trials made me stronger and my experiences carved me into a better man. I use to be a boy who did not grow up even in college. So if anything, I think alpha is just another word for being as masculine as you can.

Nope. If you describe someone as mature, you think that they are fully developed and balanced in their personality and emotional behavior. They are emotionally mature and should behave responsibly.
Developed and balanced are not in commonality in that situation. There are plenty of mature people that have wild emotions. Mature just means stopping of growth. It has nothing to do with emotional control. Nor does saying balanced personality mean anything. Literally that statement doesn't mean anything.
 

"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.
