You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
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.
never justified to beat up a girl but you're right, 99% of guys would leave or pretend not to see it happening...I'd be very wary, maybe intervene 'cos I know I can handle myself in a fight but still, that guy's 250lb...~attrACTION~ said:And, why would anyone who is not involved intervene? I mean, if I was in that bar, I would pretend to not even see it happening.
You get involved you may end up in jail. Don't try to play "captain-save-a-hoe" or save someone who may not deserve being saved. Why risk your life for something that has nothing to do with you? Like Skel said, you don't even know what's going on. All you see is a fight. Maybe it was her fault that she is getting battered.
I've also been in a situation where I tried to "take the law into my own hands" so-to-speak and ended up in court because of it. Yes, the situation is messed up, but I would rather not get involved. Anyone with half a brain would agree.
Let me guess, if you saw a guy beating his "girlfriend" in a public place, you would try to save her?
Looks like you get what I'm saying then.ricorico said:Some people who just got there thought I started it and looked at me like I was some sort of bully.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

welcome to my block list, dumb assdjSlvt said:AK-74 is more like it, or a shotgun. Sure, if you're in a black neighborhood, who cares. But if you're in a nicer white area, and crap like this happens (which it almost never don't), you'd intervine. You don't have to be big, just carry a lot of balls, no trash talking, go for the chin.![]()

I blame the feminists.ricorico said:Did you notice how these 2 guys stood at the bar and did nothing? Unbelievable. Noone stepped in until that 250lb cop seemed to have lost steam. That's when 2 old guys(who probably walked in from outside) tried to help. Those guys that watched it should get and ass kicking themselves.
I would simply leave and find a new bar.~attrACTION~ said:And, why would anyone who is not involved intervene? I mean, if I was in that bar, I would pretend to not even see it happening.
Yup. no chivalry here. This is also what I was thinking.You get involved you may end up in jail. Don't try to play "captain-save-a-hoe" or save someone who may not deserve being saved. Why risk your life for something that has nothing to do with you? Like Skel said, you don't even know what's going on. All you see is a fight. Maybe it was her fault that she is getting battered.
I haven't, but I know someone who has. I'm not repeating their stupid mistake.I've also been in a situation where I tried to "take the law into my own hands" so-to-speak and ended up in court because of it. Yes, the situation is messed up, but I would rather not get involved. Anyone with half a brain would agree.
FVCK NO! Not my problem. Why is she with him anyway? Pretty stupid if you ask me. She gets whats coming for her mistake and I won't be one to take some of the hurt off her shoulders. Dumb broads.Let me guess, if you saw a guy beating his "girlfriend" in a public place, you would try to save her?
It all boils down to conditioning. The white man will stand there and "think", and the black or latino man will "act". The white man (and this is broad generalization) was probably raised in the suburbs, and growing up, the worst thing he had to deal with was being called silly names or getting a black eye from a fistfight. The black or latino man (again, broad generalization) was likely raised inner-city, and grew up around crime and violence. So when a white man is in situations like this, he'll start thinking, "Wow, I'd really like to do something, but I might get hurt, or killed. Worse yet.... I might go to jail." because he's never been in this situation before. The black or latino man will simply react, because he's probably been there before.ricorico said:Why are white men more cowardly than blacks or latinos?
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.
