"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Hi all,

I'm 26 (turning 27 late June) and I'm seeking to start my programming, developer career. I am studying a Computer Science with Maths degree part time which I will complete at 29.

Realistically, I'll probably get my first job in 6-7 months time and that too only on £20k/$280000 as my first salary although with experience I can move onto higher paying jobs after as .NET/Java developer.

Who knows, once I get that first job, women may look at me differently.

I'm scared if women look down on my first salary and they do not trust my ambitions to move ahead in my career and earn good salaries 2-3 years after I start my career. I could be out competed with those men in well paid accounting and finance jobs.

The career I'm going into is quite well paid and I'm very ambitious to earn well.

Appreciate your comments
 

"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.

You have nothing to prove to anyone else, including women.

You have a job, you have a passion... passion is contagious... it excite the listener.... hence: you are good.

Stability is a turn on

Work on your health, anxiety approach and the girls will be yours

Girls hate the middle. If you aren't a lawyer, Doctor, surgeon, ceo, rich business owner, pilot, or fireman then a woman won't give two ****s about what you do.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Abundance is a state of mind. Women feed off your state of mind, not what actually is.

Bro I can tell by your post you're a bit self conscious and have some confidence issues. Is that fair to say?

Ok, because ^that^ will be by far your biggest problem with women. Doesn't matter if you're a student making $0 or $30k.

So the good news is, your concerns are nothing to worry about. The bad news is, you're worrying about them.

Stop worrying about things that could happen in situations that haven't happened, and just go how out and meet women. You will gain confidence. Everyone has to start somewhere. In the meantime chill, one step at a time.

I went from being a student to making 65k a year and it hasn't done **** yet. In addition, I got flaked on by a single mom with two serving jobs this weekend. She knew what job I had too haha.

If you don't have something, don't talk about it. Only show off your good parts.

A rich guy might be able to get women because he flaunts his wealth, but so what? That doesn't mean he's in a healthy relationship and that doesn't mean you have to be rich to get girls. If you present yourself well and have good game she's not gonna know and if you end up really clicking it shouldn't even matter to her.

Yea a lot of these girls are gold diggers but that's honestly their problem, not yours. That's her future BFs problem. You can play those girls however you want but how could you take them seriously? It's super easy to make a girl think you're rich, but the question you should be asking is how can she benefit your life? I like it when a girl shows me signs she's a gold digger because it means I can play her with no remorse.

If a woman judges you by salary then she is a gold digger and you don't want her in your life anyways. I have a buddy that owns 4 subway restaurants and is doing quite well. When he meets women he tells them "he works at subway," to see who is the gold digger or who is actually interested in him.
 

"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.
