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.
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.

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.

Amen to that.You guys are taking this way to seriously. Way more seriously than I have, and I actually took the time to understand the math.

Non-Cooperative Game theory maybe, which is used in economics. The idea is to analyze choice rather than variables, it won john nash a nobel prize in the 90's. It is actually very applicable in social instances, especially with coopertive (wingman and the like) and non coopertive situations (a bunch of chumps ruining it for you).Originally posted by karusel
Sometimes you can prove what you want to prove without that actually being true. Relationships can't be explained by math, there are just much too many variables that you neglect in your calculations.

Pardon the binary, but since man and women can be viewed as positive and negative entities interacting in a discontinuous, yet paridoxically enclosed environment, we felt it was justified.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
On a serious note a real computer geek would not fall for this being binary. Binary doesn't look like this.Originally posted by icepick

I found an equation of my own...
First, we all know that women take time and money.
Woman = Time * Money
The cliche says, 'time is money'
Time = Money
Therefore,
Woman = Money * Money = Money^2 (Or squared)
And because money is the root of all evil
Money = Sqrt(Evil)
Therefore,
Woman = (Sqrt(Evil))^2
And we are forced to conclude that
Woman = Evil
However, because we make the root squared we must give the absolute value
Woman = |evil|
Or Woman = Absolute Evil
Beat that b!tch!! *snaps fingers aggressively*
