generalization is dangerous in any situation...take what she said with a grain of salt...i think she's typical
"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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
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.

This just made me LMFAO.Drum&Bass said:
I have to say, this thread has been an entertaining read.
RT, I give you my full respect for remaining rational and circumspect in the face of all this. I can sign every word your write and your writing is some of the most intelligent I have come across on this forum. I really enjoy it. Props.
Now that I'm done sucking your d1ck....
Seriously though, this divisiveness solves NOTHING. I understand there is a divide in the schools of thought here but I really don't see how further arguing about it helps us in any way.
We can at least agree on the basics, right?
.....right?
Wow, once in a while a post that really gets the emotions roiling, huh??? :flowers:
Anyways, this is an indictment of human nature, of herd mentality, and it is not, or should be, an accusatory finger pointed against any specific gender. To say it is the fault of men or women only is self-delusional.

"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.
