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.
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.
Every woman I've ever met, except for the really old ones (50s and above), at a cosmetics store (like Sephora, like Ulta, etc etc.) is an Uber Biatch. I mean, I catch them looking at me, I Know she's into me (just mid-30s like me), but the next day she'll be miss pouty puff again and "Act" like she doesn't like me or in a "get the fvck outta my face" kinda attitude. Just capital Pissy. ALL women in cosmetic stores are PPPPPPisssy. I mean, what Man would EVER put up with these kinds of creatures over the long haul. If she ain't that rare bird who's worshiping me at my feet, I don't want nothing to do with it/her. It's just a cauldron of oily, syrupy, clay mix, hindrance to my health. These are the kind you Use, you fvck em and leave em. In the realm of women, there are very few keepers. Only a fool would try to "keep" the first woman he sees.perseverance said:Just look at the relationship between women and the comestic industry. The cosmetic industry exploits women's insecurities to sell products and generate billions in what is a highly lucrative industry and women just cannot see it.
So I'd argue that a majority of women are not confident or independent.

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.
This is why you must learn how to be more attractive than most of the other guys out there. When you become more interesting and exciting than her bf, she will dump him for you.Fengal said:Ahhhh this drives me mad. All the girls I am interested in have boyfriends.
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.
Burroughs said:To answer the OP yes..most girls who have their sh!t together, ie aniston/N Portman body types, good education, funny, fun...will have a bf since they are 16..They are simply too many desperate dudes hitting on hb8 with foul personalities that the hb8s with good personalities will be snapped up like 20 dollar Jordan 3s.
Your job if you are unable to land a top tier chick is to elevate your life..not YOUR GAME YOUR LIFE...becoming a better person, $$, hobbies, everything so you can lure her away from the dude she is with...because a TOP TIER CHICK WILL NEVER BE SINGLE AFTER AGE 21
So by this logic, those of us who are on this website, diving into the materials and strategies in order to attract, date, and keep a woman, and date many of them, are not really confident at all since we are seeking self validation from outside sourcesperseverance said:A lot of confident women really aren't all that confident at all. Also if a girl is in a relationship with someone then she is hardly independent is she? She's committed to someone, that hardly equates to independence does it? I know one girl she gets around, she openly admits she is curious for ****, but why? She enjoys sex like everyone else, but she seeks self-validation from outside sources - these men that sleep with her give her the validation that she needs. They make her feel attractive, make her feel desired and wanted.

So I'd argue that a majority of women are not confident or independent.
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.

Don't confuse confidence with manipulation.Fengal said:Ahhhh this drives me mad. All the girls I am interested in have boyfriends. I think its because I'm attracted to their confidence and independence. I really don't know what to do about it...
