And you're 34? She's about 14 years too old for you ...She is 38.
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Yes, I´m 34And you're 34? She's about 14 years too old for you ...
The thing is, we never had "the" talk or any talk regarding exclusivity, but she then said she would not meet the guy later because she didnt want me even to think she would contemplate sleeping with another guy while seeing me. Dont know what to make of this, in my mind we are NOT nor ever been exclusive to this point.she's full of **** she was totally gonna try and bang that guy, assuming you were actually concerned with getting an STD then you did everything fine carry on as normal
assuming it was just an excuse for her to not start fvcking another guy, then you're letting your insecurity get the better of you, be less attached and find another plate
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
You are correct, I will just proceed with what I was doing before, just having fun and hooking up.1. It doesnt matter what she thinks, it matters WHAT YOU THINK.
2. She told you about dinner with her teacher to make you jelaous.
3. She probably wanted to fvck him if you did not show any jealousy.
4. You're not in a relationship, ok, so what? if she does something you dont like you just kick her to the curb.
No need to over-analyse so much.
5. I wouldn't trust what she says or does if I were you.
I was concerned with STD´s but at the same time the way that it went it probably showed some insecurity from my side.she's full of **** she was totally gonna try and bang that guy, assuming you were actually concerned with getting an STD then you did everything fine carry on as normal

it almost sounds like she has a clever plan to get you to be exclusive in the worksI was concerned with STD´s but at the same time the way that it went it probably showed some insecurity from my side.
At the time she also asked me if I had any "similar" situations in my past with other girls (in fact asking if was cheated on or something like that) to which I said no, never. But again, we never talked about being in a relationship ourselves.
Did I fumble the football in the way I handled it?It's a **** test when a girl says stuff like that or does it
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.
U may have slipped just a bit but carry on with the attitude that you dont **** around with girls who may bring back a disease, which could be a life ruiner for you.You are correct, I will just proceed with what I was doing before, just having fun and hooking up.
I agree here. He did do well about making it about diseases and his safety, not about his jealousy of another man or he wants to be exclusive.38 years old ehh. It's a **** test when a girl says stuff like that or does it. Case I point. My main girl always says she gets hit on at the bar while dealing blackjack. Comes with the territory. I chuckle, tease her, and move on after she texts me some gibberish. Out of sight out of mind. If she's been bounking you this long she probably does have some feelings towards you. If she values you enough, you could even power move and say, "hey, we're not exclusive, but I won't spend time with a girl that's intimate with other men at the same time". It is an ultimatum, but the ultimate test of frame even as casual partners. If she brings it up even better
I am confused on the wording how would u unknowingly raise a child that is not theirs??@exhausted I m curious about that approach. The current landscape of evolutionary biology and social theory seems to be that women are designed to slvt around but are willing to forgo promiscuity to secure control of a man's resources. For example the latest research shows that the incidence of me and unknowingly raising a child that is not theirs is about 5% not the mythical 20% . So is demanding exclusive sexual access to a plate likely to work?
Note I say likely - principles never apply 100%
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.
Sound advice, thanks.I agree here. He did do well about making it about diseases and his safety, not about his jealousy of another man or he wants to be exclusive.
Spinning plates is good for yourself but do we as men look or behave Alpha if we let on to know to a girl that she bangs other guys and then we accept it and bang them?
I think it is more attractive that we dont put up with that where we look weak or desperate allowing another man to be with any type of woman we are involved with rather a Plate or ltr. Just dont go looking jealous about it but aloof as if oh other guys ok and just move on.
If the man demanding "exclusive sex", not a relationship per se, is better than her other options I don't see why she wouldn't just relinquish control. The reason you see more women sleeping around or so the statistics say, is because women have more choices, and they won't be cast out of society if she's found to be cheating. Women are a product of their environment. Do a lot of women believe in being faithful on paper, in religion, to only one man.....,sure they do. But we all know that is over ridden by the "feels".@exhausted I m curious about that approach.

They have more choices due to the cowards that can use social media to reach out to a broad who is already taken and orbit and secondly woman have no morals or shame to be loyal. They divorce in a heartbeat and are really narcissitic low lifes when u compare them to our parents and grandparents. There is of course the occossional good girl but very hard to find.If the man demanding "exclusive sex", not a relationship per se, is better than her other options I don't see why she wouldn't just relinquish control.

2.State takes care of them
3.More options in men everywhere
