"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
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.

"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.

Yeah it is defintely life-changing
"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.

It's funny as hell. This is my favorite quote:
"I immediately walk over and point out my cousin to Fatty, and she almost
knocks me and a random girl over to get to him and give him a
hug. He gives me a look of, "I ****ing hate you, and hope you
immediately die an agonizing death."
Priceless. If any of you brothers want a pdf copy shoot me an email address.

One more I would strongly suggest to have on hand (and then in mind) is Doctor Paul Dobransky's: King, Warrior, Magician, Lover. It explains succinctly the temperament / relationship between the sexes.
I love psychology. If you can't get it off of Amazon I have the e-book.

I really like black comedy books, look up Kurt Voneguith
The two books that have changed my life big time this year, and they aren't like your run-of-the-mill self-help books too 
Think Like A Champion - **** Devenzio
This is an awesome inner game book for athletes. I picked it up when I was going through a tough and frustrating time while playing sports. I wasn't getting along with my teammates and I wasn't getting much playing time either. This book offers advice for these kind of situations. Covers a wide range of topics like trash-talking, politics, leadership, frustration, being a good teammate, and pride in sports. The section about 'acknowledging your fans' had me awestruck when I first read it.
The Dharma of Star Wars - Matthew Bortolin
Some people don't take Star Wars seriously, which is fine. But for those who do, the reward and insight is invaluable. This book talks about the Buddhist elements in the two Star Wars trilogies. I have read so many self-help books and I can say that none of them made me aware of the importance of compassion and not attaching myself to anger or resentment. I am thankful that this book did. Reading this book has lead me into a deeper interest in these themes occurring elsewhere too. For instance, the Matrix trilogy has very similar themes of compassion over hatred... peace over war. It's very fascinating.

black comedy...sounds interesting
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
"I hope they serve beer in hell", written by Tucker Max, is a collection of hilarious, unbelievable stories of a guy's own self-indulgence coupled with his exploits of the female gender....but it's more than that. Really, it's about attitude, confidence, being a man, not taking yourself(or anyone else) so seriously, having fun, and doing things the "Tucker" way(of course we all aren't naturally like him, but his stories just make you want to say "fvck it....I don't care what anyone thinks!"). At least, that is what I got from it!

Pretty much nailed it. If you want anymore info, here's the intro to his book.
"My name is Tucker Max, and I am an *******.
I get excessively drunk at inappropriate times, disregard social norms, indulge every whim, ignore the consequences of my actions, mock idiots and posers, sleep with more women than is safe or reasonable, and just generally act like a raging ****head.
But, I do contribute to humanity in one very important way. I share my adventures with the world."

Man, that movie sucked. Psuedo poetic assdribble is all it was.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
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.
