"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.

up until now her emails have been so hateful and downgrading. two days ago i got this and no idea what she means. is it closure, is it i miss you, is it to make herself feel better? i will see her thursday night for the first time in almost 2 months. the break-up was bad, pretty much her throwing me to the streets without any caution. what does she mean?

Hi Clay,

Happy Holidays. I hope you're doing well. You sure missed out on the 12 inches of snow we got earlier this week. Lucky you to be in Atlanta where it's 50 degrees out...mother ****er. haha. I keed!

Been thinking a lot about the past few months and where my head is at. Let me tell you, I have let go of a lot of my anger. With that being said, a ton of great memories and loving moments have rushed inside me and I find myself crying when I reminisce. I feel so many things at once. I believe it's also because I'm slowly beginning to accept who I am and what my part was in this whole thing. I don't blame anyone but myself for the bad things I've said and done that hurt everyone.

I had a dream about you a couple nights ago, which was also the night where I thought about you and all the good memories came. We were sitting on some green grass outside just pondering and being where we were. Then we both noticed a few butterflies flying about us...as if they were just hanging...mingling with us in our thoughts. Then all of a sudden, it seemed like an explosion of butterflies (they looked like monarchs) swarmed everywhere. There was a thick wall of orange and black wings fluttering before my eyes...like we were immersed in them. I didn't know what to do...I thought they were mashing into us and I think I could taste the bitterness of their wings and insides. I felt overwhelmed so we headed indoors. The butterflies were all over me...like they were embedded into my head and body. You immediately jumped in the shower and I waited but once you were all washed off...I didn't shower. I think we got in a small argument about how you didn't take the time to leave the shower on for me or something stupid like that. I was the one who instigated it so I never showered. I don't remember much after that. It was a really profound dream.

Goes to show, I still think about you from time to time and instead of being angry when I think about you, I remember you as Clay. Just being who you are. You are a great guy. I can see that now that the fog and pain have dissipated. Even though I say mean things, it comes from my own personal fear...not you. It's my responsibility and for all the times I've said mean things to you, I am really sorry. It's no excuse for me to say mean things even when I say them as a defense mechanism. I'm paying for them already...thanks Karma.
The unique things about you are GOLD. You believe in yourself and you WILL make it!
 

"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.
