"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.

"Texting kills relationships". Say what you want about it. This is just one example, and there are plenty more like it. On the other hand, there are plenty of examples of texting, or technology as a whole, strengthening relationships as well.

Either way you look at it, I thought this was an very good article. At first, I expected some typical read, and I more or less got that outcome, but I found it to be very true. I'm on the computer 24/7 because of what I do, but like the author found out:

Technology was making it too easy for us to disengage from each other

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

Good article.

I'm an IT Manager, and feel the same way. Texting should be used to make contact with the girl, but then you really need to escalate to the meet-up.

Here's a trick.

Take her on a date, and ask her to place her phone on the table beside yours. Then tell her "The first person to touch their phone has to pick up the tab".

That way you get her undivided attention and a smile. It also tells her that you're interested in HER, and that you expect her to also give you her undivided attention.

At the very least, you'll get a free meal out of it. :)

It seems those of us in the IT field realize this more than anyone else. I'm a programmer, and the more I'm on a computer/phone/etc, the more I want to get away from it all. I love technology, but nothing beats being outside with and around people.
