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.

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

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.
I agree, but I really am sorry I was such an assh*le about it before.jophil28 said:Tolle is recycling all the hippy drippy stuff from the 60's and 70's . The" Power Of Now" is just New Age BS re-packaged with the commas in different places - Same ole' Zen style philospophy and just as boring as it was the first time I heard it. I am old enough to remember this stuff from the 70's . It is mostly fanciful nonsense and it re-emerges to suck in the gullible every decade or so. It just comes alomg in new wrapping.
This is the 'New Astrology' , guys.
Women love this this stuff . It is just emotional chocolate.
I disagree. I'm just as cautious about believing anything but irrationally disregarding anything one doesn't understand is narrowminded. Not everything we can't touch or see is chick candy brother.jophil28 said:Tolle is recycling all the hippy drippy stuff from the 60's and 70's .

This is why certain people have a certain "presence" when they walk into a room.
Absolutely.KarmaSutra said:Commander Interceptor,
I bought a copy of this for me and Brother Able and I have to say this is some pretty insightful stuff. It's a different perspective of how the body/mind correlate to happiness or weariness/sickness.
Though I wouldn't categorize Eckhart Tolle as a mystic he certainly believes in what he's experienced and it is that belief which builds his character and makes him a better person in the world.
