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.
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.
Are you guys really that scared? You think a close is that hard?Originally posted by Soprano
is anyone else watching this episode? its about someone trying to pick up a girl who got murdered lol... they're talking about "neg hits" and "closes" and etc...
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.
wow.. i was just wondering if anyone else saw it...Originally posted by ethnomethodologist

A girl says I had sex with the guy, a guy says I had sex with her, some guy from CSI says he sex closed the girl, some afc says he kiss closed her. Seriously "whats a matter for you" with that?
A guy says neg hits on CSI, what did you call it before? Teasing? People around the world MIGHT just take his idea up on his offer, and you'll already know the science behind a "neg-hit" and the history, before anybody else did, use that to your advantage. I wouldn't say I would even bother though, trying to sound smart and talking neg-hits, kino, C+F in front of girls is getting old to me again, it's like they don't want to hear it. They want to to hear what they've been hearing their whole life, with just a little bit more fun involved. Start talking science to them, and they will call you a geek, start worrying that other people will get angry, they can do a search for "how to tease" on the internet and find a link to sosuave.com, than they can pop in here, and we'll have a brand new afc to deal with... is that what you are really afraid of? Another person crawling down the rabbit hole?
I am really confused, is this actually supposed to be a problem to you, more people understanding something you know about? Just means, you can be that much more unique, by pretending, or joking about neg-hitting.
How bout you bach neg-hits, and bash closing for a little while. Get a leg up, as the competition, see if you can tease us into convincing you that sleeping with us is actually a good idea and not a good idea. GAHD, another rant.
G'bye I go sleep and shut up now.
I never saw it. I want to now though, too bad I probably never will since I haven't watched TV for more than 5 minutes in ike 4 months.Originally posted by Soprano
