Changed your life with women?HOMBRE said:Actually, I've had other forums change my life. I can't speak for this one since I'm new.
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.

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.
Absolutely with women..no doubt about that. With men too. But yeah, with women especially. I used to not like women much...kind of like most of you I'd guess.My Name is Nobody said:Changed your life with women?

"Utilize" your love. Interesting way of putting it. So did you figure out how to "utilize" it? Your love I mean.My Name is Nobody said:I've always loved women, I just didn't know how to utilize my love.
Yeah I have learned that the way to utilize your love is NOT being an AFC.HOMBRE said:"Utilize" your love. Interesting way of putting it. So did you figure out how to "utilize" it? Your love I mean.
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.
We can certainly try, but at the end of it all, iqqi has to WANT to fix her problem... and that's even if she believes she has a problem.If we're going to interject ourselves into other people's lives why can't we step up and help iqqi with her problem?
Amen. I'm not talking about an intervention. If iqqi doesn't ask for help then none will be given.Desdinova said:We can certainly try, but at the end of it all, iqqi has to WANT to fix her problem... and that's even if she believes she has a problem.
You know how many times I was tempted to help out drunk AWs? Too many to count. I really felt bad for them, but what could I do? Give them a ride home so they could sleep it off? Let them puke in my truck?
It's really fukkin sad to see, but the person with the problem needs to want help. That's why our "mission" over at Loveshack was successful, it's full of people who want help.
Your mission was a complete and dismal failure.Desdinova said:We can certainly try, but at the end of it all, iqqi has to WANT to fix her problem... and that's even if she believes she has a problem.

This is the clarity I've come to expect from wise Brothers such as Zen.ZenGodMod said:We all shouldn't have reacted to, responded against or attached ourself to iqqi's statements, it just fueled her and entertained drama more then it helped anyone.
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 think Hombre might be a woman.HOMBRE said:Your mission was a complete and dismal failure.
What's an AW? And what's an AFC again? I can't keep up with all these retarded abbreviations, sorry.
Men, we should be celebrating our victory, not fighting amongst ourselves. We live to fight another day...KontrollerX said:If keto wishes to supplant me as KX he must face me in direct combat to the death!

LOL.
No sh!t. Try not to make it so obvious next time, HOMBRE.Charmed said:Hombre is a woman
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.
Abso-fvcking-lutely! With bagpipes and kilts with nothing underneath but sweaty sac and farts!Mr.Positive said:Men, we should be celebrating our victory, not fighting amongst ourselves. We live to fight another day...

Damnit...I love being a man too!! I'm fired up right now, and I've got bagpipes blaring as I type this...you know, we ought to form the first sosuave pipes and drums band.KarmaSutra said:Abso-fvcking-lutely! With bagpipes and kilts with nothing underneath but sweaty sac and farts!
Hot damn I love being a man!
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
