"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.

Women discuss hypergamy as a normal dating strategy, but also that it has consequences

"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.

I didn't realize "trading up" was so far in the conscious minds of women. Straight from the horses mouth. Prepare accordingly, gentlemen.
They were very responsible, looked more attractive as they spoke. I was thinking they would be patting women on the backs for tearing through men.

Just the mindset of women. They always want better! Nothings ever good enough.
At least those two admitted it's a poor strategy. You see the men figure out what you do and no self respecting man would try to support such a female. He'd fvck and protect his wallet.

Really sharp girls for being quite young. I agree with about everything they said. The Netflix and Chill/swipe left swipe right/FWB/NSA culture has destroyed monogamy and even traditional marriage. There was a time when a man and woman actually tried to make a relationship work, but finding an appropriate partner now is almost nil. Quite sad and kind of depressing.

"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.

Monogamy has been going down hill for decades, POF and Tinder just helped it slide along further, I don't it was the catalyst

I heard this saying the other day, I thought it had some truth to it, although the atheists might find it offensive, or idiotic, or whatever:
"When they took God out of the classroom, the devil went in".
You could apply that to the country as well.

I was watching a documentary on Buddy Holly last night. Bear in mind this was the 1950s. He saw a girl he had barely met and asked her on a date. During the date, he handed her a rose and asked her to marry him. The next day he asked permission from her aunt, and informed his family. Two months later they were married.

It struck me that with asking this girl to marry him (practically on first sight), that his odds of success were better in the 50s, than a man living today who does everything in his power to fully screen and vet a potential mate.

Unfortunately of course, they were only married six months before Holly was killed in a plane crash on February 3, 1959.

^^ You'd ALWAYS go to the father or keeper of the gal of your affection and ask for permission to marry her. This is practice from beyond memory, certainly from the books I've read of late (about 12, 400 to 500 pages each on historical fictional romance). 1500s (back in England), 1600s (in the colonies set up in Virginia, North Carolina, etc), 1700s (native-born Americans), 1800s (Civil War and new inventions), 1900s (substantial advancements in tech) until the 1970s, 1980s. My parents married practically the exact same age as well as same month. It was common during their time and before for marriage straight out of high school, people chose and people just went with it Quick. Not much pickiness just realization among many that we don't Live Forever and we don't never not Age.
 

"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.

'Trading up' was literally unthinkable a generation or so ago. The common paradigm was marriage... or spinsterhood.:D

Well you had to marry for sex. This effectively forced people together at a young age. Ideally, they would grow and develop together in a new family unit.

But today sex is so 'normalized' that it requires no sanction such as marriage. It's become almost as banal as brushing your teeth. :D

I wonder what caused things to change so much in under 3 generations.

so get high musculature and good job then pump and dump girls who think they are securing a good catch - hypergamy is not that bad
 

"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.
