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.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Yeah, after awhile if sex is their only bargaining chip, they're deficient in other areas.I'm turning 35 and not so much as I did before, I try and see women more as assets.
Yes, so long as they young & attractive. Just today I was in a Clerk of Court's office, and there was this hot chick and her fiancé getting their marriage license. Even then, I looked upon her a sexual object.When you look at a woman.. Do you look at her as a sex object first?
Just curious. Not going to lie, I still look at women as sex objects first. It's just how I'm wired I guess.
It's OVER for Can'tEvenDateUglyCels.Women often will preemptively dump a guy who is dating down. I tried dating a few I wasn’t really attracted to. Every time, they picked up on the low interest and dumped me first.
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.
Depends. I've seen some 42 year old women look amazing. Granted, this was in NYC, but still drop dead gorgeous. I'm sure though, with make up, I wouldn't be surprised if she looked different. For sh!ts and giggles, I looked at one of those getting ready make up videos. It truly is amazing what fake up can do nowadays. It's crazy.Loaded question.
It depends on how old she is. and the man’s situation.
I dont think many guys would look at 42 year old single mother as sex objects, but they will look at them for maid services; to cook and clean for them
Same guys would smash a 26 year old woman in 2 seconds.
Other guys who want a family would take their time with the 26 year old, work on her to build something.
Any man who is married and has kids, would look at any hot women under 30 as sex object, no questions asked.
When I look at women. Yeah they are all sex objects, as in when I'm just going about my day, talking to random people e.t.c.When you look at a woman.. Do you look at her as a sex object first?
Just curious. Not going to lie, I still look at women as sex objects first. It's just how I'm wired I guess.
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’ve arrived where you are already and I’m 31 lol. Put up with the high maintenance thing in my twenties wouldn’t consider it now. Bull**** meter goes off and I’m out right away, don’t tolerate it for casual sex eitherAt 31 I did. At 41 there’s a little more space. I’m more judgmental. I’m usually thinking about how old she is, whether or not she’s my type. And whether or not she’s the high maintenance type. The stuff I used to put up with at 31 I cannot imagine putting up with at 41.
But of course this is probably just a product of being more jaded, lowered testosterone, and perhaps having more options than I did at 31.
But honestly it has to be more hormonal than anything. In my 30’s there was no such thing as a needy and neurotic attractive woman. At 41, I can usually see it a mile away because I no longer have those rose colored goggles on amplified with raging hormones.
