"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.

Seriously. I am done. For good.

This girl I've dated for 6 months isn't right. She doesn't have a clue. I've done everything I can to make this work and I'm out of time and energy.

I expect a few things from a girl when I date her and I haven't gotten any of them. Why have I stuck around? The sex isn't even that good.

She never calls to ask how my day is. She never invites me out with friends. I can't even go inside her home. She doesn't get along with her parents. I take her out and she doesn't say a word, not even "thank you". She whines about everything and is completely negative. My friends don't even like her. She kisses me with fish lips and refuses to "make out". She is the most un-affectionate person I've ever dated. She refuses to hold my hand in public.

She blames all of this on the fact that her dad physically abused her until she was 18 yrs old. I feel bad for her because of this but I can't do anything about it. She refuses to change or get help.

I'm trying to save this girl but I can't do this to myself. She sucks at life and I need to move on.

Somebody please give me some advice.
 

"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.

I don't mean to but it just happens sometimes. At first I thought she was a great girl but over time her true colors started to show.

Moe on. HB is made by looks + personality (+ money). She don't have the last two, leave.
You are right. I need to just tell her to go away and move on. I asked my best friend what he thought of her and this is exactly what he said.

"She's cute. Not hot but cute and not cute in a classy way. She has no personality. It's like she's on her own planet. She sucks at life and you can do so much better."

Hahaha. He always tells me how it is.
 

"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.

Unless she lives with you don't have to tell her squat. And if you do "Hun, I assumed you are the type of girl I want to spend the rest of my life with, but you lied. There is no future between us." But but but, you're an a55hole. "I only talk to women I want to fvck, good bye."

Ya ta da da...its Captain Save-A-Hoe...haha

Naw but yea, it should be a girl of whom would benefit you more so than how you would benefit her in the end...course it starts with her first(as always, she's gotta be comfortable with u and trust u) than more to you over time.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Just next her. Since you've already tried your best, there's no point in continuing as the result will remain like this.

N to the E to the X to the T is the way to go.

way too long. 6mths is a huge investment of energy and of your life... you'll never get it back.

but its sex for now, just take it.

She never calls to ask how my day is. She never invites me out with friends. I can't even go inside her home. She doesn't get along with her parents. I take her out and she doesn't say a word, not even "thank you". She whines about everything and is completely negative. My friends don't even like her. She kisses me with fish lips and refuses to "make out". She is the most un-affectionate person I've ever dated. She refuses to hold my hand in public.
Your not worth kissing or holding hands. Might be you, not her... you are not that attractive to her.

She blames all of this on the fact that her dad physically abused her until she was 18 yrs old. I feel bad for her because of this but I can't do anything about it. She refuses to change or get help.
She's lying... just an excuse to make you give her sympathy.. its a very cruel card to use, and just goes to show that she has no respect for her parents.

If you break up with her, you need to let it go.. Not feel sorry for her and take her back. It might be the case that she doesn't care either judging from her attitude that you have described. You will not advance and learn if you stay with her. Its time to make plans to bail and find someone else first, then let her know that it is over. I find that this transition is the best way. You get to have sex until the next bus comes along.

Ouche....I know a girl like that.

Hahaha, she tried to play my friends, but they saw past her.
 

"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.

How to crack a rut.
1. Step back and ask yourself what is going wrong.
2. Evaluate your technique.
3. Reamp, refocus, reattempt.

Once you start hitthing success again, it'll start rolling.

Stop trying to save her. You cant save people from themselves. And just break up with her. Problem solved.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
