"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.

I'd like to let this out of my system:

Why can't things be normal? Why must we play games in order to get what we want?

I just want for once, a normal relationship - drama free, stress free...smoothness. No lies, no betrayal, no messiness. People are ALWAYS worrying about STUPID power.

It seems impossible. For every game that is played, I must waste energy and worry "if I behave normally, will they win the game? "

I'm tired of everything. I have enough in my life and this just adds to it.

Every time I need my special person, they are not there. Instead they are playing a filthy game. If I voice my concern, they get offended and tell me I'm being weird. Then it feels like I can't speak my mind. :mad:


I vowed that I will BREAK these games in two and NOTHING will stop me.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Are you KIDDING? For anyone who wants what they can't have, they must have some serious issue - mostly self-esteem issue too.

I think it's more the person and what would better suit them, someone who also enjoys games.

i hear ya noodles! its like society cant be upfront and ask for what they want, instead they beat around the bush giving false breadcrumbs and fluff
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Heh... Beyond the usual attraction- and game-related stuff... most people simply suck. Doesn't matter if you befriend or date them, or even become acquaintances, or walk by them. Most are competitive, fake, selfish, controlling, two-faced, and want the power; to be top dog, in control, and "better" than everyone else. Of course, it's the realities of society that causes this. People get screwed over, find out what works, and go with it... lest they get screwed over again and again. It's too harsh and fake out there to be "nice" and real.

Also, most people who act this way fit a certain mold - which, ironically enough, is found most attractive and sought after. People don't seek after (and certainly don't respect) the average, plain, nice, boring folk. Instead, they CHOOSE to get caught up in the games, drama, status, and competition of the fake, assertive types.

Of course, everyone would LIKE things to be normal, easy, mutual, respectful, and stress-free, but that's not reality. But it can be - if that's what you associate with.

interesting to see that 99% of game-hating threads' authors are girls.

People don't want their freedom threatened or their lives significantly changed even if they are attracted to someone.

I think both men and women know deep down relationships are a big life change and a lot of work. We are reluctant to get into one unless the person is really worth it.

Games help cover up the uncomfortable "Should I or shouldn't I?" feelings you get when you meet someone.

OMG .. c'mon guy's its not like this with everyone. It depends who the heck you meet. There's good sane people out there GEEEZZ.. smh
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
