"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.

Does anyone ever wonder what happened to an ex years after you last heard of them

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

There's one I occasionally wonder about. I dated her about 13 years ago. She told me she had a chemical imbalance in her brain and was on drugs for it. I watched her moods change at almost an instant when she'd pop a pill. She went all fvcked up when she wouldn't take her meds for a couple of days and would call me bawling uncontrollably.

I could almost see this chick being one to take her own life. I never heard from her nor saw her again after we broke up.

I only have 4 ex's...ex wife.....don't care....one married...and one I don't know and don't care.

LAst one I dated when I was 17. I got in touch with her on FB a few years ago. She lives in Sweden and has never been married. I talk with her on the phone from time to time. I might visit her this summer. I will bunk at her apt in Stockholm. I also have other friends I want to see. If I smash with her that's great if not Idc. I won't be trying. If I stay sober I can pick up a drunk swedish girl at a bar if I so desire. F ucking wont be at the top of my list.

Over the past 11 years I probably have close to 15 exes. I keep in contact with a couple of them and then the others I have ran into at least once over the years out and about. Of those, I have said brief hellos to some and exchanged a few "how are yous" and basically civil words. Then there are a few who I ran the other way to avoid them. I actually ran into one a couple of months ago during my lunch break at a restaurant, the 3rd worst one of all of them... I literally ran out of the place so fast I about tripped over my own feet, just so I didn't have to see her. There is another who I know works at this new grocery store that just opened near where I live. I really want to go see the new store but as long as I know she works there I will never step foot in the place...
 

"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.

My first girlfriend is still single, according to Facebook she seems to be doing good. I wonder if she ever gets another boyfriend. If I bumped into her it would be nice to have a casual chat.

The one I dated a year ago I saw working at a supermarket. I avoided her, not sure if she saw and recognized me. Any interaction would be very awkward, I don't think she moved on after dumping me. This one I keep strictly NC. I wonder if she'll become normal.
