"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.

Gents,

Could you please share your experiences dealing with women who have trust issues?
Would you be kind and describe how they act during early stages of dating? Are they a lot of headache in the long run? Is this something they can fix easily?

Please share real life experiences.
 

"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.

My ex had trust issues. It was a pain is the ass and I don't know if she could have "fixed it." The issues probably stemmed from her dad having an affair and then her mom projecting things onto her. So counseling and therapy would likely be needed.

She didn't come right out and say she had problems with trust. It was revealed over time. At first it seemed playful. For example: I would call a friend and she would jokingly ask if it was my other girlfriend on the line.

Her insecurities progressively got worse. It got to a point where she would actively look for evidence of infidelity without probable cause. One time she found a bobby pin on the rug in my apartment. How it got there I have no idea, but she freaked out and accused me of having girls over.

It might feel good at first to know that a girl is into you enough to reveal her jealousy and make sure you’re “hers.” A little female jealousy is probably a good thing. But to always be under another’s suspicion is unfair, frustrating, and unhealthy for any relationship.

Exactly what Hiker said. Girls with trust issues will ultimately sabotage the relationship. They will try and make you feel bad for going to happy hour with your coworkers. They won't want you to hang out with your buddies.

Every time they act out you correct them and let it be known you will not tolerate the crap. Give them a chance to change their behavior. If they never progress then you dump them.

Trust is the foundation of any relationship, if you don't have it, you don't have a relationship worth building.

I'll be the odd one out here. If I thought my girl fully trusted me I'm doing it wrong. I'm not saying she should be a blithering nervous wreck every time you go out with your mates but I wouldn't want her getting too comfortable and depriving her of the chick drama she craves of being kept on her toes. I don't think any woman wants to 100% trust her man in all honesty. That comes from the "equalist" school of thought and as we all know that's B.S.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
