"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.

Crazed gunman entered Cole Hall (big lecture hall) and opened fire at Northern Illinois University, with a shotgun, glock, and pistol, killing 5 and wounding a dozen more before taking his own life.

This one hits a little close to home as I am an NIU alumnus and had more than a few classes at Cole Hall, and have friends still there. This is also about 2 weeks after there was a 5-victim murder in Tinley Park (a Chicago suburb) involving an NIU alumnus who was also a friend of mine.

Even the cornfields and suburbs aren't safe anymore, it's very creepy. Very shocking, especially considering how close these events were near each other, even if they were unrelated.

Still trying to get in touch with friends on campus to make sure it wasn't anyone I knew...
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Glad you're alive bro.

My condolences ahead of time if it turns out you've lost anyone to this maniac.

Still all of these school shootings I think have a deeper meaning than just someone being nutty in the head and going off.

I think there is something deeply wrong with our culture and society that creates these monsters.

This is a tragedy. The next tragedy will be the attempt to burn the Constitution by claiming people shouldn't own guns, for reasons such as this.

"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.

I'm sending you my condolences as a VT Hokie. I actually went to high school with the VT shooter and 2 of the victims. It was just too close to home.

Even odds that the dude posted on here before. This place is a breeding ground for such souls.

Appears that the dude in Finland still has the lead in number of kills at a school this year. That dude actually shot a bunch of video and created a webpage. I guess the Finns really are Net savvy folk. And yes, Finland (like much of Europe) has a love affair with guns. Part of Finnish culture.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

If everyone in the classroom had guns, they'd see the guy start firing wildly into the crowd, then everyone would simultaneously quickly reach into their jacket pockets, pull out their loaded berettas, and shoot the guy down from long range before he managed to kill anybody. Its that easy!


Really the only way for that argument to be viable and actually effective in a situation to prevent any loss of life is if every american had both a) loaded guns and b) the ability to predict the future.

I think there is something more to all these shootings other than just another nut loosing it and killing everyone. It seems to be happening alot now. Its something about the world,not blaming the world,cause everyone is responsible for there own actions. This is just all the inevitably bad stuff that is going to happen. You see No Country For Old Men? The Chigurgh character,is a metaphor for alot of this...
 

"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.

Guns for everyone then. That'll work, people are basically good and trustworthy and won't use them when they're drunk or anything. Do the homeless get to have guns too?

Um, the kid wanted to die, as most of these gunman who do this type of thing do. Putting more guns into peoples hands will only feed the problem.
 

"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.
