"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

Anyone read the book?

A chick once told me that every guy should read it because that's how all women want to be treated in the sack, and Christian Grey was her dream man, and blah, blah, blah (stopped listening).

Anyway, I'm looking for a new book to read and thought this could be it (research).

I understand the main principles of the book, basically how a woman wants to be dominated. I figured there might already be a thread on this, since the book came out a while ago and it was such a big hit for the ladies, but I couldn't find any.

Any thoughts.....
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

always bear in mind, a woman giving a man advice about relationships, the advice is usually worthless

I agree.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

How patient are you?

Chick lit is always poorly written diarrhea, it's just the way it is and always will be, It's not meant to be read by men. Different wiring and all that. If your not prepubescent ,full of estrogen or a moron your not going to get past the first 10 pages anyway without the urge to gouge your eyes out so it's kind of a moot point.

Read some of the great books for men instead.:up:

This is what I was thinking and why I haven't read it yet.

But I'm still thinking it might be a good thing to read, just to know what it's all about....educational purposes ;)
