"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Im thinking about getting my right ear cartilage pierced in the near future. I already have 2 piercings and they're both on my left earlobe(the second is right above it) and they're studs. What do you guys think about cartilage piercings?? What kind should I get: hoop, stud, industrial?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

I got one for a while, it got infected a few times, chicks said it was cool, I ended up taking out all my piercings because I didn't want them to get ripped out in boxing or mma training. I had a ring about 16g I think in my top cartilage. I have always liked your sig by the way.

How long did it take for it to heal? And how long did it take for the pain to go away? thanks btw.

I got my ear pierced (the lobe), you're supposed to keep the initial piercing in your ear, and you need to put alcohol or something to clean your ear out, on your fresh piercing to avoid infection. It took about two months till I could wear earrings only when I wanted.

When you play sports, put tape over the place where it was pierced when you have your first piercing done.

Once you take your "starter piercing" out, make sure you put an earring in every day, because it will originally heal fast.

It hurt worse than a normal piercing, but it healed up quickly but like I said it would get infected sometimes, or if I would sleep on it it would hurt the next day. It pretty much only hurt right when they pierced it and if I would move it around or adjust it. I never took mine out though until I took it out for good. I think they are cool though, got some compliments from chicks at the time about it.
 

"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've got an... umm... I think it's called an industrial, in my one ear. It's two peircings in the cartilage connected with one bar. Anyway, it took forever to heal, and years and years later I've still got a lump of scar tissue above where it comes out the back.
