Damn, and I was just looking at porn. Ok, you're on. I need to seriously quit.
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.
Sure sure. We will start tomorrow. You didn't lose yet because I thought we were starting tomorrow anyways.Originally posted by Bling

Ok here's what I really did. Basically I just like, try not to turn on the computer unless I REALLY need it. and if I feel even a LITTLE BIT of an urge coming on, I open my door so I'm scared crapless of being busted by my parents lol. Anyhow, just little random things I thought about like that I do. Sometimes I give in though. It's hard. Don't give up and just keep trying. Like day 40 on my 45 day run I was like, there's NO URGE AT ALL. Then I blew it and the urge came back stronger than ever. Anyhow, I'll start with you tomorrow.
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.
The same to you and AFK bling, and let the best man win, well, actually, let's not fail, no giving in. Can't figure out a better way to put it. Oh well, time to catch some sleep.Originally posted by Bling
They say the mental need for it dies after 42 days.
Good luck guys.

Wow. Good to hear, jetsfan. Your post really motivated me to work harder seeing the benefits you got. I only have 2/3 of my time left, so it's time to get my rear into gear.Originally posted by jetsfan
Hello again, it's been a few days, but I'm still doing good. Today I walked 2 miles, lifted weights, and did Tae Bo with Billy Blanks! AFK, the porn thing I've seemed to notice becomes noticeable easier after three days. Ever seen Super Size Me? Morgan says it best there: "After you cross the 3 day hump, you've got it. It gets so much easier." Now granted, he was talking about smoking, but this pretty much seems to work for anything. Good luck guys, I've got to keep going hard myself. I lost 5 pounds this week, and I'm feeling great!

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.
