"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Women still look to men to solve problems

So this is not a b1tch or a rant against women. Just thought I'd warn you. :rolleyes:

One of the chicks I bang semi-regularly works in a place that suffered a full-day blackout recently, like the whole city. She related this story......

When the blackout happened, she and some female co-workers had to move a bunch of perishable produce to one of their houses on ice to keep it from going bad.

So she and two other girls she worked with all got this done, which involved some logistics of buying a huge amount of ice, getting some containers, packing the food, traveling with it, etc.

After they were done one of the girls exclaimed, "See, we didn't even need a man to help us. We did it all ourselves!"

Anyway, I thought it was really cute. Apparently many women still look to men to "direct" them during times of crisis and/or times when logistical stuff has to happen. I was a little amazed that women would be amazed that they could pull it off without a man these days, but apparently they were.

Thought I'd share. :D
 

"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.

Men handle the big stuff while they micromanage little stuff like mismatching socks or arranging apple-picking outings.

Emulating the usual, shallow, shamelessly practical Zarky the original:

What does this have anything to do with getting into the pants of hot chicks?

Am I in the dairy section of our forum?

What's this garbage Zarky ?

Ok, Scara , sorry I am being too caustic.
Thanks for the advice, I will take it.
 

"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.

ah, but it does help, if you think about it. I think these insights are important. Broad-based rants that "all women X" and "women always Y" and "these days women are so Z" aren't very helpful... but knowing that when they're alone, many women are amazed by their capacity to do problem solving without a man present to me says volumes about my ability to convince them to bone me. :up:
