"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.

Do NOT let your friends convince you that you aren't worthy of having some chick; that you can't get her.

Now there is a difference between being a scumbag and pursuing a girl when she has clearly given you signs she doesn't want you. But let me use an example to get my point through clearer...

There was this extremely hot girl that I got to know, and after that we just clicked. She was calling me randomly on some nights after getting drunk. When we saw each other there was mad sexual tension, it was palpable. Anyways, getting to the point: she was giving me signs that she was interested. Now, when I told my friends about it, they would say things like "oh she's just really flirty," or "dude you're not gonna fvck that girl." Well, I let it get to me and it ruined the whole thing. I didn't strike when the iron was hot.

Just let that be a lesson to everybody. Just like one of the DJ newsletters said, just go ahead and assume that she (every girl) likes you, and don't listen to your friends because they never have the full story. Why do they do this? Partly because they could be jealous, or just plain ignorant. Either that or they know something that you don't, which in that case perhaps you should find out what that information is.

Find out for yourself, do not let them talk you out of it if you feel in your gut that she's into you. If she's giving you signs of interest, go for it. What's the worst that can happen? You get rejected? At least you know. I'm beating myself up because I listened to my friends; I would have RATHER got shot down. Now like I said before, if they have a valuable piece of information like "Yeah Katie said you were just a friend and you are like her little brother," or "yeah I would never hook up with him," etc. Now that's a different story. Anyways this is getting longwinded and I think you get the point.

And don't forget another important thing that I read from The Player Guide... "You have to be willing to lose a girl to get her." Ingenious I think.
 

"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.

Agreed, and this applies to much more in life than just women. I can't tell you how it irritates me to hear someone say, "you couldn't do _______" or "you aren't capable of _______." People like that can kiss my a$$.

Yeah you're absolutely right. I'm starting up some real estate investing with a friend of mine and you would THINK I would get nothing but encouragement from my friends. Think again.
 

"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.

Agreed. I get really irate at people who only put others down when they try to do something cool.

dude i'm like the sideline coach for all my friends. i'll get them pumped up to do stuff i don't even have the balls to do sometimes. lol.

me and my buddy jason were out eating at this bar/grille and this HB waitress was giving him the eye, but he didn't even notice it. he kept saying how cute she was and he didn't know what to say, so i finally got him talked into asking her for her number. he motioned her over to our table and got the # in seconds flat.
he called me that weekend and said "man, i'm glad you talked me into getting that chick's number, she's a freak!"
but she was a single mom so he never tapped it again. oh well.


oh, where was i.....oh yeah. negative friends can take a long walk on a short pier.
