"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

The post was good, but the writing was even more impressive.
 

"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.

Ah, most brilliant work, Pook!

I love the way how you expressed AFC:
Nice Guy, desexualized male.

When Maximus (in Gladiator) screams to audience:
"Are you not entertained!?"
I say at this point:
"HELL YEAH!"

Hail masculinity!
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

you depress me pook... My goal is to become a world-changing writer... You stole my dream...:D
 

"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.

just need some advice

:D hey pook love your posts. They are really helpful. I need your advice or anyone else that can help. Well on a sat. nite I got this chicks no at a club. She gave me her cell phone no. So wednesday I sent her a text message saying hey hows it going?... and so on. We started talking a little bit and I was asking her about herself just trying to get to know her. I made sure I was always doing something else (playing PS2) at the same time when I was texting her just so I wouldnt txt her back straight away. Well the next weekend she said she was going clubbing that friday nite and I said yea I was too and I was heading to such and such place. She replied back saying yea she was heading to the same place. When I got to the club i txt her asking her if she was in the club? She replied saying she was at home and couldnt go cos she was in trouble with her dad. (Shes 18 and I am 19) I replied saying that yea I might catch yep with her nxt week. She replied saying that we should meet up sometime. I got back with her on the monday and started txting her again saying hey hows it ? ... and we got talking again a bit. So tuesday nite i rang her and I asked her if she wanted to hang around on wed nite. She said she was busy and said she had some dance practice and she didnt know what time it would finish. I said yea dats cool. So friday I txt her saying what you upto in the weekend and she replied she was out of town for the weekend and is back on sunday nite. I havent txt her since... Well I have seem to have two options I can delete her no. and move on, or I was thinking of asking her if there were any days that she was free and see if she wanted to meet up. If she said nope, then I am definetly moving on.

I got another question for you pook

You know how you said on the post "Kill dat desperation" that a person should always think and treat himself as the great catch or prince charming even though he may not be having chicks running after him. But if the chicks can sniff out the true great catch from the one that just pretending to be one, how do you overcome this?

cheers mate

I guess the main idea is men need to take more risks, but some specific examples would be good.

Due to the chance of this being deleted due to time, Matrix has requested me to bump this for it to stay in the High School bible. Thank you.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Pook makes it all sound so easy ... but then the post ends and it really sinks in how sickeningly far from manhood you really are.

Oh yeah? Then go read someone that makes it sound hard, and tell me then how far from manhood you really fell you are.

And unless you are living in a shell, you must have seen a lot of powerful and popular people, that really have quite a lot of the traits that pook or everyone else here describe. Then what makes you think you can't be like these people?

Actually I have been living in a shell - schizoid personality disorder - boring, lonely, and mediocre ... and fine with it.

The closest thing to a "powerful and popular" person that I've ever met were my grade-school tormentors: rich jocks. They were everything that Pook described, but it made them into pure evil.
Thus, Pook's path of power, pride, and egoism seems, to me, to be a dark and dangerous one, of risking becoming the exploiter and tormentor myself.

I'm also a filthy hater, one of the angry and envious villagers from the post.

I hadn't seen this.

It needs to be stickied in every forum.

And put in the DJ Bible, because if I'm not mistaken, it ISN'T IN THERE.
