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.
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.
I've been here working at my company and too busy to check out this forum. We've started over a year ago with no users and are currently one of the largest content platforms in the world and the largest one on the blockchain. It's better that the market is down as it gives us time to actually focus on building something than watch the markets all day. I don't expect the market to enter into a bull market until next year and it will be led by bitcoin of course.I remember a few months ago there were several posters who were talking up bitcoin like there was no tomorrow.
Now that Bitcoin has dropped to 6K and is nearing the point of no return where it costs more to mine the coins than the coins are actually worth(somewhere around 5K), they seem oddly quiet...
When something seems too good to be true it usually is. The technology itself has a lot of promise but it appears bitcoin might be extinct in the near future...
This is not aging well lolI remember a few months ago there were several posters who were talking up bitcoin like there was no tomorrow.

I probably should take a short position in it and make a killing when it crashes again.This is not aging well lol
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.
Just curious, do you still really think this isn't going anywhere? Short term it may correct but it's very obvious to those paying attention it is going much higher. Literally every major financial and tech company is making some move in this space.I probably should take a short position in it and make a killing when it crashes again.
If there is a big pull back I will be really tempted. I got pretty much the remaining amount I wanted in during the 3'sHa! I must have missed this thread when I was posting on my own at the bottom!... 3 K odd... now 9K. lol
Still, i think we'll see a healthy correction here... anyone buying in the 6K range?
I have been buying every pay. When I first started buying crypto I was told buy with an amount you won’t care about losing. I have been doing that and will keep doing that. I am hoping some of these bitcoin/crypto predictions come true but if they don’t I ultimately lost an amount I didn’t care about.Ha!

did you do it?I probably should take a short position in it and make a killing when it crashes again.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
I think it's the right thing to do hahaHilarious if this becomes the 'Bitcoin thread".![]()
Where are the Bitcoin lovers now? I'll be living the high-life in Europe somewhere soon if the rate of the increase continues!I think it's the right thing to do haha
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
haha Yup. At this rate, semi retired, traveling the world within the next few years in my early 40s. If there is institutional fomo, this could get really wild. With everything going on in the world and continued interest rate cuts, the perfect storm could be brewing.Where are the Bitcoin lovers now?

Who is the guy lol He doesn't have any understanding of the tech. I also don't think you understand how usable all this will be in the next year or two either.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
