"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

What happened to Francisco d'anconia?

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

He was one of the greatest posters on here, ever. He helped me a lot through PM's as well. Never heard from him since.

my personal hero (well him and Westcoaster)... he got me into semi-professional cycling. I have so much respect for those two and miss them greatly. Probably wouldn't be nearly as successful without those two.

Think that's the wrong sosuave member.

Was squirrels sick or something? I remember talking to him a few years ago.
 

"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.

No he isn't. That is not Francisco that is Giovanni or something.

Last I talked to Francisco he said he was dating a Kim Kardashian look alike. He probably got hitched or something.

Theory is squirells died. Probably on a motorcycle. He already had shattered his leg driving reckless on the motorcycle.

With regards to Squirrels.... I did a bit of looking around and it seems he's alive... and with some filthy hot blonde chick :)
That must mean he has respawned with a new username. Anybody know what squirells new username is?

Galt certainly beat him (and Reardon) out when it came to grabbing Dagny.
 

"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.

He is Pook, by the way.
Your internet sleuthing sucks. No he wasn't. Not unless pook was a closet over thinking pessimist who suffered bouts of self doubt, oneitis, oh and changed his actual writing style.

pook cops alot of flack here from frustrated keyboard warriors looking to disagree for the sake of disagreeing, lets not dumb him down and cheapen his writings even further eh? (no hommus)

Was Pook from Baltimore? I am doubting this too. Where is some proof Iqqi?

Iqqi, you are still alive? Wow...Talk about a blast from the past.
