"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.

Dropped a long term plate, who you thought you actually liked a lot, and then felt liberated?

I mean fnck, one can also be a victim of one’s harem members too. Meaning managing the mess of scheduling etc.
I’d tossed this one aside many times and she’s always come back - I do not expect that to be the case this time.

How strange is it to be able to breathe freely as I am now…

Yes. A little over a year ago I was seeing a plate for about 3 months. Not sure this is necessarily "long-term," but close. She was a good looking (not hot) latina, probably HB 7 I would say. She was getting fairly clingy and wanting me to do more and more with her including meeting her son.

The thing is I liked her. She fvcked great in bed, was laid back and fun at the same time, but the constant pressure to hang out more and try to force me into her son's life was rubbing me the wrong way and making me feel trapped. I finally told her it wasn't going to work out to continue to see her. It wasn't as easy as I would have liked it to be I will admit -- she was very upset.

Thing is, right after she left my apartment following that conversation I felt like my whole world had opened back up again. Not that it was incredibly different with one less plate - but it sure felt like it. Huge relief.

I can relate to that.
Kind of like even when you know she is going to bring you bottomless problems down the line
like a ball of black aura of energy that's surrounding you. After you walk it just dissipates into thin air.
Its definitely a real cosmic tide that you feel leaving you.
You gotta always listen to fate's whisper and be cautious about any woman that enters your realm

I mean, we all know women are going to press for a relationship within 3-4 months if they are into a guy, I am not sure why so many guys are surprise that it happens or that they have somehow done something "wrong" which makes us want to drop them.

Ironically the guys are the ones simply wasting their time and they are the ones who should be relieved, because make no mistake, if you continue to date and bang a woman past a certain point they are never going to be happy just being a plate.

Not saying the guys are doing anything wrong either only wanting to keep things casual, but it's a little strange to act as if they should just be happy with status quo forever.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I’m my case, I’m the OP, she’s a hb8 hard to come across a good longer term plate like her in my area. She’s definitely broken, has tons of issues that grate the fnck out of me, but she’s got a rocking bod, is easy on the eyes and can be fun in bed.

The issue is she’s a female version of a Peter Pan boy, the amount of entitlement she displays because she’s been smoking hot most of her life just annoys the cr4p out of me sometimes.

She has value to me as a DHV in this area as well. In any case, that’s the backstory. She’s been wildly texting and emailing and like always wants to make up. Just not sure I want to this time.

I know that she values me greatly because I’m not like the deadbeats she’s surrounded herself with most of her life, I know I’ve met some of them and DAMN.

But it’s almost like she gets comfortable and starts displaying cruddy behaviors- that’s when I tell her to pound dirt. Then the cycle starts again. She’s the perfect female partner for a couple months, then, bam. Didn’t expect a rebound this time but here it is.

My gut says walk but Mister Happy says pound it.
