"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.

Isn't it great how after a particularly excellent One-Night-Stand® I find my oneitis has a bit of an acute inflammation.

4 - 8 hours after getting up the morning-after, having had a seriously fun night-before, I find myself sitting in work checking my mobile every 50 seconds for that text.
That text, being the one from this fantastic woman i've been with, telling me how much she likes me and how she cannot wait to see me again. Because this woman is The-One™.
When i'm not checking my mobile, i'm either thinking about checking my mobile or i'm wondering if there is a network problem - and if thats the case i better check my mobile to see if i'm still connected.
Hehe.

I have to physically stop myself from sending some soppy, sloppy text putting her on a pedestal made of solid gold and showering her in white lillies (because I know she likes white lillies, and I get her what she likes).

I feel like walking into my boss's office:
"Chief, you wanted to see me?" jimhardy

"Productivity doesn't seem to be at its optimum today jimhardy, is there a problem?" Boss

"I'm sorry boss, its my oneitis. Its really acting up today. I know I haven't got those reports done, but I have redrafted the text i'm going to send her 5 times, would you like to hear it?" Jimhardy

Haha.

I get home, nip to the gym and then make myself something tasty.
Shower, shave, slip into something comfortable; the oneitis has played itself out, and I'm taking out that little hottie whose number I got the other day.

If its another awesome night, well lads, rinse and repeat!

Anyone else have a little chronic oneitis? :D

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

haha, great post bro. I think it's great that you can come on here and joke about your oneitis. We've all been there, but not many will admit to it.

Rinse and repeat... <--- luv it.

So when will it ever be feasible to succumb to oneitis? If you continue to run from it does that mean you never want to have someone special and always on the look for the next best thing? Just curious...

Oblivious is a woman, so therefore her views on attraction are completely different than that of a man.
 

"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.

I do think that you kind of missed my point - possibly due to my wording, as I was going for as humourous as possible - probably due to the fact that you are a woman/guy who's never been in that sort of situation.

I was essentially saying that after every great night, I enjoy moving through my emotions of intense lust and attachment through to nochalance and satisfaction and readiness to meet someone new.
I just think its great how I, and i'm sure i'm not alone, move through such a range of emotions in 24 hours - its a tribute to how predatory we males are. The following night I would have my lips on some other woman's neck, when 12 hours previously I wouldn't have noticed if Scarlett Johansson had asked me if i'd like any favours whilst she served me coffee in silk lingerie.*

I wonder if it would sound like something serious to a boss at work to excuse lack of work... "Oneitis"... hmm they'd never figure it out and figure itd too disgusting or serious to ask.

Good post and I agree.....it's amazing how quickly you can swing from infactuation with one woman to pure lust with a completely different woman all in the space of 24hrs.

Who says men aren't emotional creatures?:D
