"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.

I am on day 15 of kicking a 10 year Skoal habit. ****ing can a day. I'm staying strong but my mind is trying to trick me, sneaking thoughts that after 2 weeks it would be ok to just have a pinch.

This is a health issue, tobacco use of any kind is a dangerous and nasty habit.

Anyone here battled with this, and when does it get easier? When do the physical cravings fade out?

I sure could use a motivating success story or two, please! :)
 

"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.

Start treating yourself to really good food. I'll be surprised if you don't suddenly start finding the flavours so much more appealing after you stopped smoking.

EDIT: Wait, that's chewing stuff, right? Should have the same effect on your tastebuds though.

I used to chew a little bit but never had a problem quitting. It is addictive, though. I guess I never chewed frequently enough to get hooked hard.

I agree with Espi---tobacco has been proven over and over again to be carcinogenic and cause various chronic and often terminal health problems. That's all the reason I needed.

I used to smoke when I was a teen as well...quit that after 2.5 years. Never looked back.
