"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.

Last night my neighbor came by. He's a really average guy. Not very good looking but does well. He's divorced. I like him, but like I said, he's really no "catch" for anything other than his money.

Anyway, comes over with his HB. She's way hot but a little strange in my book. No question she could do better. Gold digger? Maybe.

She's pretty much moved in with him come to find out.

Talked to the wife this am and she said HB told her that my average friend told HB that "the house is yours now as much as it is mine." WTF! This guy owns it outright and they are really high end places! Why?

Just for some pvssy? Middle aged AFC behavior?

After they left, I just shook my fvckin' head and hit the rack.

To each his own. :crazy:
 

"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.

Very sad. Such is the disease that plagues modern man.

Even in my most AFC days I would never utter those words.

it's like my wife's hot friend who just got a divroce. married for 10 years or o to this guy, guy makes about 180-200k a year, works his ASS off, woman doesn't so much as lift a finger. I made a post here berfore about how we ent over there for dinner one day and she sat there, waited for him to get home, and then he had to cook dinner. called her his "princess". **** made me want to throw up in my nouth. my wife better be laying in bed with ebola if i ever come home after working 12 hours and dinner is not on the stove or being cooked and she doesn't work.

anyway, she files for a divorce. i am quite sure she has been stashing money away, she has her own apartment, and is still living the exact same lifestyle now. she has a new BF.


anyway, but the thing is, the dude, already has another broad living with him. he's already talking about marriage. she's been there 3 months.

I am sympathetic towards guys who are young and just are brought up wrong. i was lke that.

but a guy who was married for 10 years, has seen the **** first hand, gets burned and goes right back and does the same ****.. the man just doesn't want the pill and i'm not going to waste any time worrying about it.

Wait til he actually marries her without a prenup.
Yep. Suspect it will happen.

Just gonna keep my mouth shut. At his age, he should know better.
 

"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.

May not be total AFC. Could be he's trying to balance his alpha/beta behavior. Letting her think the house is her's to do with as she pleases is a bit much, but I could see letting her have free reign over the kitchen or bathroom. So I could see he was doing what Athol Kay advises about trying to find balance, but if that was his play then he just totally mucked it up IMO.

I don't know Nutz. I was just bewildered last night. I do however think he actually is AFC. Maybe just lonely. Who knows.

One thing I forgot to mention was that she's probably 10-15 yrs younger than him. Under the circumstances, I would consider this alone to be a red flag. My best guess is that she's hit her expiration date and ready to settle simply for a guy who has money. Just sad.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think it would be pretty easy to figure out if a woman wanted me just for my money.

You guys need to realize the statistical facet of things ...

There will always be guys like this, in fact they need to exist for us to exist.

But I won't go into that.

It's too mathematical for the average Suaver ;)
 

"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.

The ONLY way you'd know if she's after your money is if you mentioned it or she knows about it. IF you keep quiet about what you do for a bit...until you've talked to her for a bit. IF she was blowing you off and then turned interested....

When half the town knows you, it's a bit harder. That's why you have sex before mentioning prenup

Dear 5String,
Sad huh?......"the house is yours now as much as it is mine."well looked at objectively,in this Country if you let 'em move in that is the reality...Interesting one on my Dance Scene...Guy maybe mid fifties,has young Ladies living in his home to help pay the Bills...Well he had a Young Phillipino Girl say 22 living there and inevitably he started banging her...Well eventually,they fell out and she wasn't laughing at the same jokes as him,she has filed a Family Law claim on him,wants half the House...She won't get it,but will certainly get 25% of its value,the House is worth US $450.000,that's a cool hundred grand...Her legal costs will be more than half this!

Well, so much for the "get a Filipino girl" theory.
 

"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.
