"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.

Would you be happy for your daughter to be treated the way you treat women?

Unfortunately, you don't get to pick the gender of the offspring.

But you can pick the mother. And you can choose what behavior you exhibit.

Pick carefully.

What @SeymourCake said is key. Your daughter's expectations of a man are imprinted from you. Raise her with guidance, discipline & love & she will learn appropriate behavior, self discipline & self respect.
 

"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.

I would like my daughters to be with a man who treats his women like me. The only part I won't like is him enabling some real spoiled behaviors that makes her a worse person.

Yes, my daughter is wired like any other female. I'd rather her have a man with frame like mine treat her like I treat women so she stays with him. I dont like the alternative that's inevitable; having him be a blue pill beta she cheats on and catches some STD and/or dumps him and ruins his life and/or becomes a single mommy.

My daughter will be 13 next week and I bust on her all the time. Been doing it her whole life. One day she was really really sick and I went into care giver mode. I called her 'honey' which I never ever do. She said 'ewww dad don't call me that it doesn't sound right coming from you'. I said 'Ok sh!thead I won't!' She said 'that's better'

Yeah, but how you going to stop it if that's what she wants to do. Some women cheat on their Alpha men to one up them.
You stop it by seeing the bad signs she develops towards you and dump her before she gets a chance to cheat on you. Women give signs and clues that tell a man what he needs to know. it took me a lot of pain and hardship of being both cheated on and dumped to develop the skills to recognize these signs.
