"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.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

Both teams can win. Liverpool was also the underdog last year against Milan but they did win!
I hope FC Barcelona will win this final.

I think it will be an amazing game but Barca will just edge it with their flare and confidence. I'd rather Arsenal won, but as long as it's a good final I don't care :D

Henry will play like he's never played before to impress the team he's going to next season
then again so will ronaldinho and etoo for the simple fact that this is the final...

anyways Barcalona are just too good for arsenal... don't see arsenal winning, just see henry scoring, but e'too and ronaldinho scoring more
 

"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.

Not necessarily, he will stay if he thinks Arsenal have a shot at the Premiership title, and now he knows Arsenal will be playing Champions League football next season I think this final may hold more importance that thought previously.

I hope Arsenal win, they have been my favourite team for several years.

However, realistically, it is going to be hard to stop Barca. But this is soccer afterall, and ANYTHING can happen, its not like Arsenal doesnt have what it takes to win the title. Would be incredible to actually see them do it though! I will be cheering for them all the way!

Arsenal have beaten Real Madrid and Juventus. Everyone rates Barcelona, but the Gunners have proven to be a match for anyone.

It would have been a better game if instead of the red card for Lehmann Hauge would have just let the game continue and credit Barca for 1-0...

The linesman that had that barca shirt was replaced...

Anyways altough I dont like the barcelona cvnt because they have the same colours as Dinamo's arch rivals ( red & blue ) I made some good cash from them. On 1-0 for Arsenal I made a bet on Barca winning before extended periods on gamebookers :D
 

"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.

Its called the "Big Derby" round here.

This final isn't the first nor the last game destroyed by the referees (although Hauge did respect the rules in this particular game), and with the world cup just around the corner if these errors keep ruining the atmosphere of the game I guess Fifa will implement video help for the referees in the near future.

Again, Hauge did respect the rules of the game, but in this particular game it was to the deficit of football.

I won a few quid on my 2-1 prediction.

I agree the game was too much for the ref to handle competently. On a side note, I lost me bet :(

I bet Ronaldinho to score first, and it to finish either 2 - 1 or 2 - 2 at the end of normal time. As an Englishman, try and understand my mixed feelings when Sol Campbell headed home Arsenals first, and unfortunately, last.

Never the less, it was an exciting game. Not a patch on last years of course, (I'm an LFC fan), but that game will not be topped for pure drama, for a very very long time, if ever. You couldn't of scripted that better.
