I hear your true repressed feelings come out when you're drunk? What does it mean if someone is an ass to you when they're sober but start getting all nice to you once they're drunk..
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'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.
:yes:THE_ADDMAN said:you just answered your own question.
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.

Of course, phsycologists say otherwise.mahon83050 said:This is why I believe Mel Gibson truly is an ANTI-SEMITE!!! His true feelings came out.....
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.
Same here. I have done and said things when Im drunk that I would NEVER do sober. Things that dont even come into my mind when I am sober. You just make up random stuff and blurt it out. I once tried to use a tennis ball as my license to get into a club, honestly beleiveing it was my license, lol. Is that my sober thoughts? Or drink driving numerous times, something that I am 100% against! And thats just the tip of the iceburg! Alcohol changes people, at least when they drink excessive amounts, as I am sure anyone who has done this on 50+ occassions could attest too.TyTe`EyEs said:Truth serum my ass.
I'm not the same person when I'm drunk.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Dude, I just about got sent home from work due to excessive laughter. That is the greatest thing I've ever heard.CLOONEY said:I once tried to use a tennis ball as my license to get into a club, honestly beleiveing it was my license, lol.
lol, yeah my friends and the bouncers found it pretty funny also! Unfortunately, thats one of the least embarassing and dangerous things Ive done in my drunken years!TyTe`EyEs said:Dude, I just about got sent home from work due to excessive laughter. That is the greatest thing I've ever heard.
When I black out from alcohol, I usually just curse people out and try to start fights.
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.
