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.

There's a long way to go before women give up the "you can have it all" feminist mantra. Women have been fed the "you can have it all" tripe for 50-60 years. "You Go Girl!" stuff has been around since Gloria Steinem made a name for herself in the Second Wave Feminism of the 1960s-1980s.my opinion: It would appear that this the start of the end of the destructive "you can have it all" femynist meme; perhaps chicks will become more pliable as proper wives?getpocket.com

With today's environment they will get adrenal fatigue (long-term exhaustion) due to stress if they continue on the work/consumerist treadmill at their accustomed paces. "Burnout" isn't just psychological, it's physical as well.There's a long way to go before women give up the "you can have it all" feminist mantra.

If you think back to 1900-1969, it was mainly men in the workforce with some unmarried and childless women in some traditionally feminine roles, such as nurse, administrative assistant, K-12 teacher, and medical assistant type roles. Men overwhelmingly dominated both blue collar/physical labor type roles and white collar/mental labor type roles.
When women entered the workforce, not too many of them were focused on blue collar/physical labor type roles. They instead moved from their administrative assistant type roles (think the secretarial pool in "Mad Men") into higher level individual contributor roles into middle to upper management roles in some cases.
What women didn't realize about white collar work is that it is exhausting in a different way compared to manual labor. White collar work involves long hours, stress, and often substance abuse. @LARaiders85 made a good thread about how white collar work impacts your well being. Women don't like the impact of it either, even less than men.

Your corporate high status job (banking, wall street, finance, law, medicine, accounting) is destroying your SMV
If you are here then you value being attractive to women and having options in your choice of women, whatever the ultimate goal might be. Here is why the short term boost to your SMV from a well paying, high status job is the opposite of consistent, long term success with women: Looks: 1. Long...www.sosuave.net
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
