"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
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 Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I look for a smooth ride and power in a car. I have enough funds to $60 - 70K.
Unless you are well off financially, there's no need to spend $60-70k on a car

But I will say, buying a CAR, not one to just get from a to b, but a REAL, 50k plus car, without having some serious equity in your house, is asking for it.
that is the difference between making a living, even a good one, and building WEALtH.
Of course I do. I wouldn't buy a car without a house.Latinoman said:Do you own a house?
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
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.

Well, we were talking specifically about diesel vs. gasoline (engines) and the cost of gas. As far as maintenance is concerned, it has been well documented that diesel's require less maintenance. There's no big secret why; they have fewer parts and are just less complicated.Latinoman said:Maintenance still the factor. European cars are considerably more expensive than American or Japanese when it comes to maintenance and repairs.
The overall car I have no comment on.
