"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Only this week have I truly grasped the true meaning of the much famed post 'kill that desperation.'

Desperation is defined a state of despair, which leads to rash or extreme behaviour.

Desperation is not exclusive to dating, it applies to all aspects of life. It is critical to eliminate this from your life completely, desperation in any form is comparable to a cancer spreading throughout your body. It warps your sense of self and causes you to become a person that you are not.

There is a distinct difference between wanting something and being desperate for it.

The key to eliminating desperation is realising that there are very few actual needs in life, most things are wants.

Anything aside from food, shelter & water is a want, a want that you can do something about.

When Pook talks about being the great catch, he is talking about realising that women are not a necessity in your life, the world will not end if the girl you are obsessing over shoots you down. In your world, YOU are the only constant.

You may elimate desperation from your love life, but that is not enough. Are you desperate for success in the business world? Are you desperate to have a large circle of friends?

You need to rid that desperation from your life. It is a state of mind and changing how you think.

It is accepting that Don Juans are not made of their dollars or who they hang with but who they truly are.

The moment you aren't willing to walk away from anything in life is the moment you leave yourself vulnerable.

Not being desperate isn't to be confused with abandoning your dreams.

I want to be run successful business's, but I can live without acheiving this.

I want a good relationship, but I can live happily being single.

Not being dependent on having what I class as a perfect life truly enables me to explore what I want.

To be desperate is to sell your soul to the devil!

A lot of posters problems would evaporate if they could truly remove desperation from their lives!
 

"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.

Good job, playa99. Sounds like you're cultivating self-acceptance/self-reliance by realizing how desperation leads to irrational thinking/decisions. Keep learning, man.
