"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.

"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.

I know its a novel idea, but did you ever think that its something he has to grow into himself? Stop trying to "open his eyes".

Waking people up from apathy is a waste of your time. Yes, he's your brother, but he'll learn. When he can't get the girl he wants, when he's tired of feeling insecure, maybe then he'll be ready to make sacrifices.

You can only support people, thinking you can change them to be like you is just silly.

spot on...

My bro doesnlt even hit the gym and you know what he doesn't care.

Yeah I take the mick out of him now and again for being skinny, but its not like its my job to motivate him to get into the gym if he doesn';t want to.

Focus on your goals, not his.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

^ These 2 guyz are dumbsh1ts.

Get a girl friend of yours to fake havin a crush on him and have her tell him to work out if he wants to date her LOL That might get him in the gym for a bit eh?

Also, maybe just go to the gym with him? He won't do it by himself but if big bro is there pumpin weights with him he might think differently. Unless of course your mum as pussified him to the point of no return, LOL

One thing that you can do is to treat your brother a little better. If you don't treat him with respect, he loses self esteem and he won't want to improve himself. Be a good brother and invite him to come work out with you. Give him positive feedback and make it a fun experience for him. Be nice to him and make it a routine to go working out with your brother. If you can make it an enjoyable experience, he'll start to feel motivated to do it.

Exactly, and then start competitions based on stuff like who can improve the most, he'll win usually since both percentage wise and just counting the weight he added to his lifts will be higher at first. Now thats motivation.

At least your brother knows he's skinny. My brother is 6'1" 140 lbs and he thinks he's buff because he keeps his BF% at 8% :rolleyes: Meanwhile his bench is stuck at 135 lbs and he wonders why lol
