“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Chili's

I do not concur. Chain restaurants offer consistency. Something that independently owned places do not always give you.Stud said:Just about every chain restaurant is overrated. Find a locally owned and operated restaurant if you want good food.
I would suggest anyone traveling overseas to go with chain restaurants. Breks in Italy, Lido's in Latvia, Yolki-Palki in Moscow, anything from Mirovaya Karta in Kiev, Double Coffees in Latvia, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, Estonia, or Cili Pizzas in Latvia, Lithuania, or Ukraine. Those are all good safe choices. McDonalds out of America can be quite nice as well. Just go to one on a weekend night and try to get a seat. Those places are popping with all kinds of folks. Nothing like the American version. I have taken a number of beautiful young things out on dates to McDonalds! There is a McDonalds right by the Kreshchatik Metro in Kiev. Try it on a Sunday night. Yes, Sunday night. Better than any American bar I have ever been to. Don't ask why, but Sunday night.

chili's literary uses sex to sale food. The food is not great. it's not bad but it's not great. But a bunch of 19-20 year old tight ass perky tits waitresses, you can sale just about anything.

Most of those middle-market sitdown corporate chains have really crappy food.
Exceptions? Texas Roadhouse is all I can think of.

Just because a woman listens to you and acts interested in what you say doesn't mean she really is. She might just be acting polite, while silently wishing that the date would hurry up and end, or that you would go away... and never come back.

Word. Most chains like Applebee's or TGIF's go through workers and cooks like every day so you never know when your food is sh1t or tastes good.Julius_Seizeher said:Most of those middle-market sitdown corporate chains have really crappy food.

I just wrote a long post about my hate of chain restaurants and lost the entire thing. That is all.
I love restaurants and lived the restaurant life. I worked in the industry for a number of years over the past decade, in a handful of restaurants, and I've had roommates who were co-workers. I enjoyed many nights hanging out and having drinks with co-workers after a long tough shift. I've heard all their gripes and complaints over their customers and management, along with their genuine praise of good dishes. There are definitely differences between working in a corporate restaurant and independently owned restaurant, but I would say there's not much of a real difference from a consumer perspective. Corporatization does tend to lead to higher prices and having too many store locations, but there's a greater emphasis on consistency and the quality of the food itself can still be pretty darn good, depending on how much you're willing to pay for the dining experience.
When you dine out, you're really paying for the experience (along with the mundane costs of business). Waiters and waitresses are performers, memorizing every ingredient in every menu item, memorizing descriptions, memorizing the wine list, all the steps of service, and imbuing their performances with their personality and professionalism, in an suitably sociable environment. Restaurants are a communal social ritual. While people can and do cook good meals in their homes for a fraction of the cost, restaurants are fulfilling of people's need to be socially ritualistic animals. Combine this with differences in socioeconomics, whether certain restaurants are overrated is relative to their social class.
Chili's is a one star restaurant (I think). It's at the bottom of the food chain except for zero star restaurants which are mom & pop. So, I would beg to differ with Chili's being 'overrated' since it's ranked at the near bottom of restaurants. The five star ranking system is inversely exponential in such that four and five star restaurants are as rare as a black swan, and three stars is the best most people will ever be able to dine in. Find restaurants which are Zagat rated and you should be reliably satisfied, regardless whether it's independently or corporately owned.
With that said, I personally prefer ethnic foods like Japanese, Greek, Turkish, and ethnic restaurants are generally independently owned.

I've never tried Texas Roadhouse but I can think of Brio Tuscan Grille, Bucca di Beppo, PF Changs, and Elephant Bar, which I think are all two star restaurants.Julius_Seizeher:

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.
You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.
