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.
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.
Strongly agree with 2 and 4Summary:
1. Be in charge so she can turn her mind off.
2. Have future plans/goal.
3. Control her drama with zen attitude.
4. Control your penis.
5. Bring out her best side, not her toxic side.
6. Initiate giving her positive attention instead of waiting for her to whine about the lack of attention.
7. Know what you want and show clear intentions in that what she likes.
8. Don't be afraid to map out the future for her.
Very interesting. Which were your "before" then "after" behaviour and outcomes in the two different scenarios?5 is true, and so is 3.
I misunderstood manliness to be winning arguments whereas the truth is you avoid arguments - except when boundaries are crossed in which case you enforce them rigorously.
5 is so true. Since I pulled my finger out and started living better, my wife has suddenly started doing the housework more and moreover - respecting me.
I must be doing something right as I'm yet to meet a woman who didn't have her brain turned off most of the time1. Be in charge so she can turn her mind off.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
Hilarious and true at the same time!I must be doing something right as I'm yet to meet a woman who didn't have her brain turned off most of the time![]()
