Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Lies!!! online dating doesn't get you laid. 90% of the post on this site is about LAMES doing online dating and can't get LAID. " where did I go wrong?" is their main line. You went wrong doing online dating. You went wrong thinking your really dating this woman cause you sent her an email online. You went wrong thinking you have REAL GAME cause you know how to email with smiley faces. You went wrong not hitting THE REAL WORLD to learn GAME. I'm teach guys out here to be REAL MEN!!! The world is in dire need of REAL MEN!! Real men are dinosaurs out here and are about to become extinct!!!jurry said:
No learn how to keep a straight FACE. That doesn't mean looking angry that has nothing to do with it. You probably smile too much which does come off as SWEET. Don't take my word for it take hers. You probably are SWEET. With all that laughing and joking you do!!!FortunateSon said:
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
That's right!! I 100% cosign this message!!!Mauser96 said:
That comes across as boring though! I enjoy a good laugh and a joke, what's wrong with that? I don't associate smiling, laughing and clowing about as being sweet.I_was_born_a_PIMP said:
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.
Everyone on this site is at varying levels in their dealings with women. We all have one thing in common and that is we are all here to either help others learn, learn more ourselves, or combination of both (which is probably most of us). It is for sure me.I_was_born_a_PIMP said:
If your doing so well, why waste your time here? No one is always stable or happy all the time.I_was_born_a_PIMP said:
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.
