Not sure I'd do her even with her hair, though you really can't tell until you experience the sort of vibe you get from someone in person.
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.
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.
One of the media outlets (can't remember who) did a survey to women (can't remember their ages) asking which they would prefer most; beauty, money or fame. The majority chose fame!Wyldfire said:She keeps entering and then leaving rehab facilities. It's kinda too bad the press won't leave her alone...it's gotta be hard to sort out her issues when she's under a microscope. Sad, really...
I wouldn't want to be famous at all. I'm already attractive, so I'd take the cold, hard cash. I'd pay off all my bills, buy a house and a camp to go to with the kiddos, get all the kids their own cars and pay for their college, pay for more college for me, start Mutual funds for all of my kids and then start a free intensive rehab program for treating addiction for poor and homeless people. Yep, yep...I could do so much more with the moola.Francisco d'Anconia said:One of the media outlets (can't remember who) did a survey to women (can't remember their ages) asking which they would prefer most; beauty, money or fame.

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
So, you claim.Wyldfire said:I'm already attractive, .

That's it. Britney also believes that Pope John Paul II was the devil. Nahhh, she actually thinks that Pope John Paul and Cardinal George Ringo were a couple of guys in a band that played Beatles covers.Wyldfire said:...
Maybe she wants to make a statement like Sinead O'Connor.
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 hope that he gets the damn kid!!! He should, but with how the court system is, I don't know if he will.Francisco d'Anconia said::crackup: You guys know that she signed herself into rehab after getting her buzz. Well, after a single day in (again), she's signed herself out again. K-Fed is trying to get an emergency court hearing to get the kids. Who would have thunk that he was the more stable of the two.
I know, that's the first thing I think of whenever he comes up. And that's the lesser of two evils?comic_relief said:...btw about K-Fed remember when he won the wrestling match against that one wrestler? *slaps head*
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.
Maybe it's just me, but I find that alot of people who work in the civil services, cops especially, get off on playing around with their authority.Bonhomme said:It's more like the courts are often unfair, period. I really think a lot of sicko judges get off on committing injustices. Their way of being God for a day.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
