"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.

Many times the question has been asked, tips on getting a strong jawline, toned/tight face, but nothing concrete so far.

Recently, I've been hanging out with a group of swimmers and I notice 80% of them have a very nice facial build. Do you think that's just a coincidence, or is swimming something we should look into?
 

"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.

Swimmers just tend to be cut and lean. Therefore there's less of that pudgy fat on their face so you can see their facial structure more clearly.

I don't think testosterone plays a big role in defining your facial structure because many bodybuilders i know don't have a nice face.

Exercise certainly plays a part in toning which is what i'm trying to discuss. In previous threads, it was concluded that exercising will lower your bf and give you a more lean face, but you can't selectively tone down your facial fats.

Many athletes I see still have a rather pudgy face, most swimmers on the other hand do not. Coincidence?

Yes.


There is no link between swimming and masculine jawline. What are you supposing causes it? Chlorine?

Testosterone and bodyfat percentage alone will determine the prominence of your jaw line.
 

"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.
