I think it's more than confidence. Can a guy have swagger wearing a button down shirt and nice shoes? Or does it require a baseball cap pulled to the side and jewelry?
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

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.
You're not serious right? Where the hell did you come up with that definition? You obviously have very little grasp on American culture. And you think Kanye is "every suburban American boy's hero"? He's a joke now, some people still like his music but nobody respects him as a person. American people are very into Lil Wayne, not so much Kanye.BigJimbo said:Swagger is an urban American slang term for men who like larger middle-aged woman (?) who wear trashy clothing (i.e. Kanye West). I don't have any and pray to God that it never gets close to me.
Every suburban American boy's hero and his...uh...

If you guys find that beast attractive I give up.
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.
LOL. And some of us are into neither because we are adults. Swagger is just your personal confident style. Which is why you hear the word "my" usually preceding it. So on the morning when you feel like a million bucks and dress like your version of a million bucks and walk like your version of a million bucks, that's your swagger.Exhumed said:American people are very into Lil Wayne, not so much Kanye.
