"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.

You know which guys I'm referring to, the average guy who managed to score a HB8-10 girlfriend.

1/3 of their statuses are about how much they love her, how perfect she is, how lucky they are etc.

Some even post numerous pics of her posing blatantly to show off her good looks.

Of course all these posts generate a bunch of "likes"

How is it these girls put up with that kind of behavior from their boyfriends? I'd imagine it'd become obnoxious and creepy over time.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Guys are obviously doing it to show off (just like some guys show off their cars, boats, motorcycles, etc.) Some women actually like being shown off. However, it's a balancing act. Overdoing it will make you look clingy and desperate.

They rank right up there with the never-has-been parents who like to show off their genetic defective children on Facebook. Guess what? No one cares! I guess if you can't change it, let the guys who act pathetic around women make such un-original comments as "God! She's so HOT!" etc etc. It only makes the rest of us who don't put women on a pedestal look 100 times better.

The problem is, while it makes you more attractive to not be like those guys, this groveling attitude also breeds bad habits in women. The man who behaves normally, and not like some beggar, can have women in his life. The more difficult part is finding one that is well-behaved or training a woman to be better behaved once you have her. The easy part is the having. The harder part is the behavioral issues once you have them.

Guys want to show off what they have to their friends. Some chicks like the attention and think it's sweet at first. They will soon get tired of it al lwhen they start banging the "bad boy" types they used to.

I had a friend who suddenly started commenting on every little thread his wife put up. She would put up how dreamy Davey Havok from AFI looked in a new music video and he would comment about how how he agreed on how handsome the guy was or some such nonsense. I was about to pull a Burroughs and playfully warn him of his sudden case of Faggot-ness, but then it hit me: Why is he making these kiss a$$ comments to his wife on FB unless he wasn't able to talk to her directly?

I immediately clicked his page. Relationship status: Single clicked her page, she had moved to another state and was engaged with a new man! She even lost weight (she was lumpy before but got huge after marriage, now she looks like a different woman). After a few months I had to delete her just from principle.

He's finally moved on and is dating again (yes with a woman), but now I have another male friend who is going through a horrible engagement fallout that is being played out on BookFace. I'm thinking of making a page strictly for networking only because seeing friends relationships implode online, and them recording their depression faze with every new posts is draining.
 

"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.
