"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.

If feel that people, are threatened, and insecure. Why is this? Is it, because I am too much competition against them. I am too cool?

Also, if I have a big ego, why didn't people mention it. I asked people, if they think I am humble, and they say yes. Also, people never say, I am an ego maniac. People, when they know me, think I am a good guy.
Asking people if they think you are humble is never a good thing. If you were truly humble the thought would not have even crossed your mind. As for peoples response, asking an awkward question like that would naturally lead to a white lie answer.
 

"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.

This thread reeks of low confidence, try to talk less about yourself and how good you are and how bad all people around you are.

Low social skills seems to be your problem m8.

I am a little German.

Crossboss, what country do you hail from? Are you by any chance a native German? I'm just curious because you use commas to introduce every subordinate clause.
I am half-white, mixed white. I am German, Irish, and Danish.

having seen ur profile pic (and being bluntly honest)
id say your reality and every one else's reality may not exactly be matching up.....
 

"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.

Looks

Does my profile picture, show that I am not as good looking, or as I think? Or do I look arrogant?

It's true, not to many people really care what you look like, if you share a connection its way more likely that you can get into convo together..

I agree, to some extent, a lot of the experts in the pick-up world, says looks have very little to do with your success, and say that you don't need looks or money, to get a girl.

** im being honest and construdctive**

coz ur smiling you look friendly and nice
but you are average looking and look a bit "cuddly" i.e. could lose a few pounds (which would also sharpen your jawline out a bit - defo making your face a little more classically 'attractive')

thats my opinion make of it what you want

(almost all guys are "average" coz its soo subjective to individual women's tastes, only maybe 5% are amazing looking, and 5% are really really ugly)

Looks and money will help.

People aren't going to want to start chatting to you just because you're rich and good looking though. Whilst, "I'm here with your friend" is hardly going to get you the cold shoulder!
 

"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.

Well, that clear's it up. Hopefully, I can get a couple of other opinions, on my looks. However, if what you say is true, then the reaction I get from people, is probably normal. The people, who say I look, good, well, they are white lies.

Men can't really judge men...

But (and I mean this in a kind way) you're not in the best of shape.

Do you usually talk about yourself as much as you are here? If so, stop. That would help ALOT. Nothing gets you more friends than being a good listener.

And judging by your pic you look average. If you walk around thinking you are amazing looking you might be acting like you think as much. And people will find that arrogant especially when, unfortunately, it's just not true.

"Talk less listen more." Always sage advice.

but if you got down the gym did it all properly, so low body fat, and good physique, got some good looking clothes, etc...

added to an approachable attitude and a good inner core of confidence (and good "Game") you will do well

"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.

Cinamon & King sam are spot on. *rep for you both.

to OP: We all can use improvement. that being said... lose 15 lbs and it will also chisel out your jawline/face. You have the framework already. not only will you look even better than you are, but your confidence will grow and you will get more women.

Thanks, guys

What do you mean, by my jawline? Is it too, fat? I think, that if I get lean, that should help. What I, don't get, is why a lot of girls, that I have hung out, with, think I have potential.
