This info is good, alot of it, if not all of it is Darwinism, and contempary Darwinism. Robert Wright has a good book called, The Moral Animal were there is an extremely good section on monogamy and pologomy.
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.
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.
Baloney. Women understanding men, and men not grasping the female, has nothing to do with "their mate selection process". What crap. Yes, I am very well versed in anthropology.but women are much more complicated. they have a much more complicated mate selection strategy, and this is why so many women "get" how men work. but yet so many men fail to "get" how women work. their mate selecting process is very complicated.
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.
EW was banned three years ago. However, it still seems like yesterday when he was trolling the forumsI doubt you know much professionally Elite. Although you made great points. And I totally agree with everything you're saying
Goddammit! There will never be a Part III. Never ever. Look at the date and the "Banned" title under EW's name.Great post. Can't wait to read Part III
Realising that makes me think. We're the hell are we going to. Eventually, our genes will become weaker and weaker and we get more and more dependand on technology. :woo:and it is a fvcking fact that genes are being degraded becuase of technology. Technology is taking evolutionary pressures off the human species.It's allowing people who should not be alive today, be alive. Thus these peoples genes are being added to our gene pool, and degrading it.
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.
