"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.

Woman has sex with her husband for 365 days straight.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Internet has allowed so much bs and hate to spread. I guess instead of complaints we can commit to putting a different message there.
now we're talking; there's enough leaders reading your post that have the influence and strength to effect this positive change.

Let's engineer the future!

that is the good and bad about freedom, you get the good and bad and learn to filter, only morons try to control it to only put "the good things"(aka control it to spin the tale like they want and anything they don't like is bad)

but most bad things today is because goverments are doing everything to tight the leash and keep everyone in control, we see how well its going

All you hear is bad cause it grabs more attention. A peice of negative information is 5-10 times more powerful in terms of attention grabbing than a peice of positive information.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

Haven't looked at her but it seems like she was fat in 2017.

I don't think I'd want to have sex with someone 365 days in a row. There are many good reasons not to have sex every single day for a year.

There are stats online that are showing married couples under age 60 are having less sex now than during the 1980s.

In the last decade, as I've listened to married co-workers describe their lives, I could read between the lines and figure out that their relationships didn't appear to have a lot of sex. No co-worker outright said it, but it wasn't difficult to determine that their bedrooms weren't very active.

Willing to bet the better looking and better shape both partners are in determines a lot of it. I mean who wants to have sex with a woman you don't find attractive sexually if she has gained 50-60 lbs? Same for her even tho she won't say it, she is thinking it.

If both partners are attractive and in good shape, their bedrooms are most likely pretty active

Physical fitness is the main change when comparing married couples under 60 in the 1980s to 2010s-present.

The only other changes are increased technology options and changes in parenting styles.

The median/average age of the US population has changed a lot since 1989, but that variable is eliminated when comparing people under age 60 in both samples. In the 2010s-present, there are now a lot of aging Boomers over 60 who are physically compromised.

Not sure when this was originally posted but this was a movement like a decade ago.

When I was married my ex tried it, I thought I was in heaven, she lasted like 2-3 weeks before the drop off. Oh well.

Nothing special about 365 day sex. I got stuff to do.
 

"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.
