"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.

Was coming from work, didn't get time to have a shower. But this girl was telling people I stink, and I did! But it got me down. I am thinking at the end of the day, if you are putting the effort into dancing properly, you are getting sweaty, and the right woman should probably like that. So I think the women who don't like it should say so to me and not to other random guys in the club such as my friend.
 

"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.

BO is never good man. It shouldn't get you down..just keep some deodorant in your car for next time. Can't fault people though for having a problem if you were stinkin' up the joint that bad.

It's mostly crotch and armpits...easily rectified with a damp paper towel from the restroom. The bigger challenge is, your clothes likely smell worse. A change of clothes is great, if you can manage to keep them handy.

Take it from a homeless guy.

dude why are you homeless?


And OP there is a such thing as a "clean" sweat. Its that sexy chick magnet sweat you get after a fresh shower, a splash of cologne and some dancing at the club. that mix is where the pheromones be and you are good to go...if you have a dirty sweat, ie havent showered in a day and then sweat its gonna be bacteria filled disgusting hotmess stench.

"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.

-If you smelled, why didn't you go home?
-Where has common sense gone?
-No. She is not obligated to tell you that you stink. You already knew. She can tell whoever she wants. I would have too. You should have went home.

Of course people are going to talk behind your back. Always check yourself. You should have gone back home to take a shower or found a way to freshen up at work before going to the club.

You should have just got your wallet out.

According to some on here money is all that matters so you would have been swimming in poon if you just flashed some cash.
 

"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.

Carry baby wipes with you. Unscented. Not only are they good for your issue, but they're also great for getting grease off your hands if you check oil, change a tire, etc.
 

"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.

Homeless guy here....

I carry them in my cargo pants pocket...works great...removes dirt, sweat, deadskin, reduces bacteria, quicker than shower. Saves water. At 99 cents stores, you get a good sized pack of them. Life savers!!!:up:
