"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I saw this movie here in our local mall.

What I first thought about it was it definitely had the vibe of the original. Tom riding his motorcycles, riding motorcyles with babes, the crew singing at bars, playing sports at the beach and Maverick being a ****y hot shot taking risks and annoying his higher ups.

Another cool aspect about this movie is the less Wokeness that it has. You don't see diversity for the sake of diversity and third wave feminism being shoved in your face. It's like your back in the 80's again pretty much. There's one female pilot and she's actually pretty cool and fitted in the storyline very well.

All in all this is a solid movie. Good for a date or something you can see with your buddy.

I give this one an - A.
 

"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.

Heard great reviews about it across the board. Will definitely add to my Disney+ watchlist when it pops there after July 8th.

I felt the same way, it was well written with no bs feminism embedded. No fake girl heroes or bumbling idiot beta boys. It's definitely like going back in time.
 

"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.

Too bad that drones are getting so good that the weight of the pilot is enough to make him obsolete (the pilot could be the gamerbro commanding the craft from nearby base).

Thats what I thought too…there will come a time where we no longer need real life pilots…it’s all video game style
