"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.

people nowadays don't seem to respect older people as they used to do in past so i wonder how can i get them to respect me in the same way they might respect their teachers or parents or something like that?
 

"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.

Pro gamer I take it you are a gamer. In that case I will suggest you quit as soon as possible just like cigarettes even one pack a week is bad for your health. And if I were you I would look to get a remote job.

You shouldn't be worried about respect from other people.

The most important thing is self respect..when you sense people not respecting you, they've probably sensed that YOU don't respect yourself. Thus it becomes a downward spiral. And eventually it will show through you literally not respecting yourself by not chasing excellence.

You gotta stop GAF about what "they " think of you bro..by the way, what's your definition of respect or being respected? Again, if you respect yourself it will show in every thing you do. E.g i will respect a well dressed man over a dusty old fart sweat smelling dude.


Respect is always earned and never given...

If you expect people to respect you just because you're 'older', you will be disappointed.

People in general respect me because they don't want to get too acquainted with my violent side.
Hi Amsterdam,
Konrad Lorenz,known as the Father of Modern Ethology wrote once...Something to the effect that....Of all the known Primates,(Ape like creatures),Man is the only species that copies the behaviour of the young!
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Your looks, money and status decide how attractive you are to women.

Your size, proportions, accomplishments and life style decide how worthy of respect you are.
