"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

I want your guys' opinion on these two shoes by Lacoste...

I will mostly be wearing distressed jeans, and I want some shoes that will just look good with them.

Here are the 2 shoes I can't decide on!

and

I want all-white shoes since they have such a nice and clean look and go with just about anything... My style is a bit preppy btw.

Anyone ever own either of these shoes? I'd like some suggestions, thanks!
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Second once. Also second choice of gmillar. Actually I like that Nike better.


BUT...


White shoes?


It would depend on your outfit, but white shoes are for running my man. Get gray or black.


My personal choice would be black.

I already own a pair of those Nike's and I have a pair of K-Swiss Classics in black. The Nike one is too big and bulky for my taste. I do like the second choice of gmiller! and you're right ViciousDADogg, it would have to go with my outfit, and white goes with my outfit. Although I'll probably get another dark blue low cut converse canvas sneakers as well.

Oh and Luke!!, you make a lot of sense. The logo in the middle of the sneaker does look tacky.

Thanks for all the input guys! All very helpful!

IMO all of those look kinda chavvy, no offence...

not sure about prices over there but for around £60 you can pick up K-Swiss, some of which're much nicer (and more conservative)

check out the Salvatore Ferragamo website, I got some nice sneakers from them. I think they're called "surrey" - they definitely still sell them over here...

if you have a bit more cash to play around with, get some gucci sneakers with the black + white pattern - girls like them...
 

“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.

Which one of the Lacoste shoes do you prefer more? The first or the second?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I have been through 4 decades of so-called "fashion" - (this is part of the homo/hor Matrix!!) - you must show us your jeans to determine what is best - since your shoes are closest to your pants!! Why base your decision on one pantaloon?

Those are the nastiest, ugliest shoes I've seen this side of "Sketchers". :down:

OP: the first shoes are classier. IMO, holes in shoes (like the lacoste logo in the 2nd pair) just make them look vltra tacky.

FWIW, this is very similar to what I rock. It suits my style. No grandpa-holes here.
 

"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.

Kswiss and Timbaland is for DJs! White shoes are for highschool and college kids. If you're over 25 you need to be wearing Timbaland boots. If you're going to buy shoes go to the maker's site, it's so much cheaper and it's usually free shipping.

You might be the last one in on this, but Timbalands got played out in the late 90's, at least here in the states.

Padron Reserve maduro in hand while finishing my b

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
