"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.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

If by advice you mean "life-changing essays", then Pook's your man. The man will not do your homework, but he will put you on the right track.

When it comes to fixing your inner-game Pook is your man, no doubt. His "articles" are profound and some are truly masterful. Classics!

WOMS is also great reading! When I first started reading it, i couldn't put it away. I printed it all out and read it from start to end. Amazing stuff!

And when the sexual frustration hits you at it's worst, there is nothing better to read than the Gunwitch method. Pure persistence! Make the ho say no ;)

I couldn't decide between Sr. Fingers and Anti-Dump - I picked Sr. Fingers, because he got me started. Anti-Dump I didn't even learn to appreciate until I realized I was having trouble finding quality women.

Once you get to a point where you are competent with your skills, you can follow anti-dump to weed out the disinterested, gold diggers, cheaters, sluts, etc. After thinking about it, I should have picked him. Sr. Fingers compiles advice well - but Anti-Dumps advice is truly unique.
 

"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 love Pook's content, but hate his longwinded and patronising delivery. It puts me off reading his posts sometimes.

They've all given good advice but I actually got some with Gunwitch's method once so I'm picking him, even though I haven't used it in a while (as in my c*ck)

bleeeih pook writes 5234114141241241 pages just to make a one ****ing single point.

IMO, he's overrated and most of the **** he's been writing is pure mental mastrubation.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

MotU and Matt ala Casanova were great posters when I first started reading here. I don't know where they went or what happened, but for me, they were better than anybody above except Fingers.
