"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.

Why do friends ****block??

tell you the truth, if they ****block, then they're not really your true friends.
i know a couple of AFC guys (wouldnt really call them friends, hangout w/them once in a while), if they ever had a chance/were near me if i were around a girl or # close on her.....I'D KNOW for a fact they'd fvckin c0ckbl0ck me in an instant and try ot put me down to make me look bad.

these type of guys you couldnt trust them even if your life depended on them.

I look at it this way, whenever i'd go do a # close, i'd either do it alone or with a different group of friends. # close is not always 100% successful, plus the fact that ****s like those are around you at a time like that is pointless.
if i had my own company, i bet they'd do all they could to make me go bankrupt. they'd rather see my demise than see me be more successful than them.

i dont even have to test them, and based on their personalities and attitude. i can already foresee if they're future c0ckblocks.

but the question is why?? why the fvck u gonna ruin another guy's game when you do nothin to improve your own.
 

"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.

So very wrong

True friends will help each other with the ladies.
Good luck finding those "true friends"! lol

All the guys I talk to, if you bring up the subject of "wingman" or helping each other out with girls ...it's all negative and downhill from there.

jealousy

Jealousy, pure and simple.
I think it goes back to the idea that there's only one alpha male in the group, and the fact that you're macking HB's proves that you're the ace.

I agree. Jealousy and they think that they have a chance after CB'g you.

I know a guy that will trash you when your back is turned. I mean, we'd be at a bar. I'd be talking to a couple of hotties. Doing pretty good. As soon as I go for a beer, he starts bad mouthing me to the girls. (the girls told me later). I'm like what the F? Does he think that it makes him look better to bad mouth me? It didn't ! The girls didn't want to have anything to do with the guy after that. They thought if he's willing to bad mouth me, no telling what he'd do to them...

He's not a friend. He's some guy from the gym... I stay away from him now... What goes trough these idiots heads?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Chicks hate bad-mouthing

I was talking to a girl at a party whose bf was there. She liked me, I was not obviously trying to mack her but was being laidback and confident.
My mate came up and he really likes the girl, problem was he was drunk. So he starts bad-mouthing her bf saying stuff like, "he said blah blah music sounded like clown music", "He has no taste in music", "He's no good for someone like you"

After he left, we were laughing about him trying to badmouth the bf. She resented that. I never even mentioned the bf, and she liked me for it. (started kinoing me later cause I started acting c+F, felt kinda awkward but pimplike at the same time!)

not only chicks, i believe most ppl hate it in general. if that someone talks about him behind their back, what makes you think they wont talk about you next time?

but yea usually no one wants to be a part of the gossip.

just mind your own damn business, that's basically how everyone wants it. or expects of you.

so i nthe old saying...what goes around comes around.

i think they do it so you cant outcompete them. even if they dont succeed, they'd rather not have you succeed either. and as you all said, jealousy.

they think they're successful when they try to badmouth you, but the fact is they just make themselves look worse and a fool!!

It is definately jealousy.

I was recently alone with a girl in her room when 2 of her female friends burst in (college dorm) *and would not leave*. Even after both myself and my girl stopped talking to them they just sat there, not moving.

It was very obvious to them what was about to happen, I was feeling my girl up while they were there. Then after they left one even came back! Plain and simple: they wanted want my girl was going to get. The blocking doesn't stop there: while I was making out with her when we where *finally* alone the one friend kept calling every 5 minutes. We ignored the calls of course. The whole blocking lasted a good 3 hours.

Don't suggest I shouldn've tried for a three/foursome, both the other girls were not attractive. I hear your frustration.

They do as such because deep down inside they are women. Women are irrational and emotional by nature.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.
