"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I predict all female readers will immediately 'get' this, and hopefully a few male readers as well.

One of the most common, most overlooked, yet most important components of a developing relationship is being there for her when she wants to open up about important things (not to be confused with day to day complaining).

Do it and she'll fall in love with you.

Your blog is awesome, i wish you posted every day.

I just read this article. I ****ing love it because i never thought about it. Now that i do, i have never 'been there for her'. And i also do not know when the right time is to be there for her. I guess it will come with experience as i will mess up some relationships by being either too much of an emotional tempon and 'not being there for her' enough.

Thanks again, i will now pay attention to such an emotional detail.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

Wahooo! A new one :D After reading a page a night of these for the last couple days I was gutted to come to the end but now I've got another to read.

Cheers for taking the time to right these muscleman, highly appreciated.
Thanks, glad you enjoy them.

I wish I posted every day too, but unfortunately I don't get paid to do it (and have bills), and won't until I have an actual ebook (which is in the works and tentatively scheduled for release at the end of the year).

You're not the only one who has been confused by this, so I'm going to make a follow-up post explaining it a bit more.

Probably should have asked this when it was more relevant, but just thought about it so: what would you say about "being there for her" before you're in an actual relationship? Just as bad as being her emotional tampon, or what?

For example, one girl I'm trying to game posted on facebook that she almost got into a car crash with (I'm guessing) her siblings in the car. Being the guy that I am I was thinking about posting something "comforting" to her. Ultimately decided against it, but what would you say to this? Does it not have the same effect as if you were already in a relationship?

Nope, different things. You haven't had sex yet, there's literally no bond there, so the most you should say is 'that sucks, hope you're all ok'. If/when you're developing a relationship, then it's different.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"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.

The Frailty Of Women

Been a while since I've posted. New job, some interesting life developments (irrelevant for the time being), and spending time with my girlfriend have cut in to my posting. I think I'm back down to Earth now though.

One thing I've noticed in my deeper interactions with her and other women is how frail they really are. They NEED our strength, guidance, and support.

If you see the truth behind the tough girl exterior and act accordingly, there will be no shortage of love in your life.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
