"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.

What does your room look like? [pics]

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

He will probably merge this in his.
You're a genius. :p

Merged with "What does your room look like? [pics]".

Great idea though! Let's keep this going - everybody here with a digicam (which is 70% of you probably) post some pictures of your room. There's no reason not to, and who knows - you might even get good advice on how to change things so it's more suitable for entertaining the other sex.

Yeah, I'd planned on moving out of here in the next few months but I'm not going to be able to anymore. Hurricane Katrina displaced about 50% of New Orleans' population into Baton Rouge, where they decided to stay. Our town has doubled in size in the past week. There are literally no apartments or hotel rooms to be found in the entire city - even normal houses are selling like crack to an addict. Funny thing is I'd planned on moving out with the girl I've been seeing for the past year or two... "Taking the next step" - which perhaps God was trying to show me would be the wrong thing to do.

Yeah, that's it. God made Hurricane Katrina just to show me that I shouldn't move in with a chick. Sounds like I'm in the same boat as that meteorologist who claimed that the hurricane was created by the Japanese Mafia with a weather machine in retaliation for Hiroshima.

Guys, I know I mixed in Katrina stuff with this thread but please keep future postings about the hurricane to a thread devoted to it... this one is just for you to post the pictures you take of your rooms in... thanks much.

"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.

I live in an apartment with 5 other people and share my room with my girlfriend. I have a laptop, a desk, bed with two matresses, cd player with amplifier and speakers, weights, my martial arts stuff and a whole bunch of books.

A picture is worth a thousand words... and it's not like it's hard to take one...
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

It's pretty messy at the moment but that is nothing like it has been in the past few months. I have recently started cleaning it up a little bit at a time the past few nights and it has gone from a complete mess to just quite messy. I would say in about a weeks time it will be quite tidy and organised. :)

welcome to my world

"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.
