"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.

This question is rhetorical, but many people do not realize all the things they have and when they don't realize how important it is until they lose it (like electricity =P, or for real, life) Thanksgiving ended and what are you thankful for?

i'm thankful for all the challenges that lines itself up to test me in this world. it only gets harder as i become stronger.
 

"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.

GREAT THREAD...I was listening to an audio of "The Secret" today and it talks about how being greatful is the first step to getting what you want. I personally think gratitude is a highly underrated characteristic of a DJ, there is nothing AFC about sincere gratitude for what you have.

My car, my bank account, my comfy bed, my skin, my new black jacket, my chance to go to school, my neverending will to improve, my mother, my freedom, and my work ethic, the new Borat movie, my best friend, choices, gyms. etc, etc.

I am truely thankful and grateful for the free gift of eternal life the Lord Christ Jesus of Nazereth hath given me.

And the Gift of Faith to allow me to accept The Lord Jesus Christ of Nazereth as my personal saviour from my sins.

Thou Im a Sinner, deserving nothing, The Lord God hath given me infinite riches, bestowing mercy upon me, and allowing me to enjoy all of his creation, earth, moon, stars, and forests, and all his creatures, birds, dogs, squirrels, and care from a Loving Father, Mother, a nice house and car, and a job.

"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.

I'm thankful for having two loving parents. I've come real close to losing them and that made me realize just how important they are to me.

Great topic.

I'm thankful for my looks, my modesty and the gift of life :up:
 

"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.

I'm thankful to God for giving me the opportunity of living. I'm thankful to my parents for giving me birth. I'm thankful to Fate for giving me intelligence. I'm thankful to my Motherland for the sense of belonging I feel for it. I'm thankful to my friends for being sincere and making me feel worthy.

I'm thankful that:

1) I found this place and learned about masculinity, our feminized society, my sh1tty upbringing, the differences between men and women, and have been able to solve several of my character flaws at a relatively young age. Had I not found this place, I may have lived the rest of my life as a total chump.

2) The speed at which change can take place in this world when you will it to happen.

3) I was born into an era in time where we have access to information like never before.

4) There are people out there who are willing to take a significant amount of time out of their lives to share their ideas and provide resources to help you succeed. This applies to both people I've learned from on the web and people I've made connections with in real life.
 

"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.
