"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.

Thats something ive realised.

When you're down and got nothing going for you, people seem to like you, as you are a failure and not a success, and they don't really feel threatened by you.

But when you're up and look like you're successful and things are going well for you, people seem to give off bad vibes to you and try to bring you down, whenever they can.

This is mainly people who already knew the old you.

Anyone agree with what im saying? Am i right or am i right?
 

"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.

Yes, this sometimes happens with people who KNEW the old you. Most new people you meet will be attracted to you and respect you for it; as long as they aren't jealous creeps and you don't act super arrogant.

This is because when your life isn't going anywhere and suddenly this guy you know is doing much better, it makes you resentful. You see yourself stagnating in your current mediocrity and devleop jealousy, maybe even anger that he's moving up and you're being left behind. Some people devlop these kinds of feelings.

If you happen to meet people like these, avoid them like the plague. Just being around them will make you a lesser person. They'll try and bring you down to where they are, and that's no where.

There will always be low life losers like these. And then there will be those that are happy to see you succeed. Keep those that are happy for you close. But keep those that will stand by you when you're down even closer. These are the friends that sticks by you even when you've got nothing to give them. Now that's true friendship.

yea...

yes i notice that too. But only jealous bastards allow that to get to them.

in the past when i was more successful and positive about life. i attracted people that took genuine interest in me, in addition they wanted to be my friend.

My unsuccesful & unemployed non social friends on the other hand get jealous, and resent me when im successful/ambitious.

Now im in a slump and when im not successful, i have trouble attracting people cause they know i dont care about anything.

those friends, seem to relate to me better and like me better cause i've become an unsuccessful/unambitious mess like them.

If you have a good attitude about it all, and want to help other people they will respect!
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
