no i've just been places where i have seen his entourage do it's thing. he gets down.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
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.
BB, being a long reader and everything of your post, but I have to ask when have you met his entourage? Seeing he is a kid from the Northeast and Harvard and your life have been largely in the middle of the state, I have doubts that you have ran into each other. But, hey, I would imagine it must have an epic story (like running into each other at the same party of something). Please tell (I say this earnestly too).backbreaker said:no i've just been places where i have seen his entourage do it's thing. he gets down.
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.

Agreed, not every guy here is looking to build a harem, quite a lot of them are seeking help in landing just one decent woman out of the millions of *****es out there. If you just want a one-night stand then looks are all that matter but for those seeking a relationship they need to consider all aspects of the woman as a whole package.Lexington said:When you associate with the DJ/PUA community, you tend to think that every guy wants to bang lots of chicks. But a lot of guys are happy with just one decent girl. And there are other things to consider besides just looks.
