"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

So I'm at a bit of a low point a the moment. I shouldn't be. I've got a couple of plates spinning at the moment, banged one of them on Sunday and the other wants me to go visit soon.

I could, if I wanted, write about how plate spinning helps to keep your options open; you don't get hung up on one woman, if one disappears you have others to fall back on etc. I see this written a lot on here and although I can understand it to some extent I'd drop it all for one high quality woman to be in an exclusive relationship with. This is my issue at the moment - I haven't found a high quality woman in ages.

My question to regular posters is this: do you really believe all the stuff you post on here?

I think sometimes when you're on fire there's a temptation to post/gloat/tell others how they should be doing what you're doing...I'm not sure I believe everyone on here though.

I'm not slating anyone in particular and I always turn to this site in moments of crisis like this, but I doubt some of the stuff I read sometimes....
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

My advice tends to be practical and simple. I will never tell someone that they should go on a skydiving "action date", take salsa lessons or learn a foreign language. Usually, the solution to someone's "problem" involves an improvement in:

1) verbal communication skills (in your native tongue),

2) physical appearance, i.e. style, grooming and hygiene, and/or getting closer to one's ideal weight based on their height,

3) social value,

4) confidence (the lack of confidence is solved by improving any or all of the three things listed above).

There are more practical ways to achieve personal improvement than skydiving. My advice would be to take that same amount of money and buy a decent wardrobe with it. Now don't misunderstand me... I'm not saying that the road to self-improvement is always easy (that bag of Doritos looks GOOD), but the plan itself really isn't so complicated.

I wouldn't advise anyone until I've experience in the subject either but I've seen some obvious troll posts. Also many people ask some questions that are just a matter of common sense, these infuriate me to some degree but you have to accept that they may not be as experienced.

I think most things can be answered simply with one phrase...man the f*** up!

I think the whole plate-spinning concept is good because you have to remember that a lot of people visiting these boards are coming from a place where they're not very good with women.

The whole theory teaches guys to not give too much attention to a single woman/develop oneitis and that there should always be more options.

The problem, however, is that as you go about this, you'll often find that some women are in fact higher value than others. It doesn't matter if you're spinning four plates if one of them is a legit 9 in your eyes and the others are ~5. So yes, sometimes plate-spinning isn't the answer. Yes it'll get you laid, but if you're looking for something more then I personally think it comes down to persistence and patience. Spinning plates will just keep your skills sharp in the mean-time.

That's the way I see it anyway..

And yea, I'd take everything you read on these boards with a pinch of salt. There are a lot of bitter men on here that skew the information so I wouldn't take it as gospel truth, ha.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.
