"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.

I have reached a road stop.

I'm physically and emotionally burned out. Dating girls after girls use to be fun but now it seems very tiresome. All the drama is getting to me. I feel like I need peace and solitude for a while. But then when I attempt to be alone, I always come across a nice female who interest me and the process starts up again. I think part of the problem is I date younger females, the types that leave an older man like me drained. I thought about pursuing someone my age but those my age tend to have issues or extra baggages and the good ones are already married; Not to mention I'm more attracted to younger females. I thought about taking a break from the game to rejuvinate my strength and my focus. But then I'm not getting any younger, I'm in my 30's; if I take a break, I feel like I would waste alot of valuable time or a chance to meet the "one". Speaking of the "one", I'm not sure if she'll ever cross my path and I'm not even sure how she would be. I believe there is someone for everyone. But meeting them is the hard part. I feel I don't have any more energy to keep searching. She might have to find me. All I know is I have reach a road stop. I need to take some time to think and reflect on where I should go from here. I feel like escaping on a motorcycle even though I don't know how to ride one. And riding it out toward the horizon, heading somewhere, anywhere, except here. Only if it was that simple. But life binds us to our reality.
 

"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.

Then take a week or two away from the drama and THINK.

Then realize it's probably the sad arse life you've got that is messing you up, and not this "date after date" thing.

Get a grip on your REAL LIFE first.

My real life is what keeps my head screw tight. I have a great job and surrounded by loving family and warm friends. It is not that. It is coming to the realization on why do I need all this female drama when I can have a good time being around my circle of friends. It's like a conflict between my independent self and my dependent self that wages on. And finally that battle inside which took place on the field of womem has left me with little energy left for myself. Something only one who has gone through can relate.

Dating does get old, I agree. Yet I know some guys that MUST do it constantly b/c they HATE to be alone for 1 minute. I think that is pathetic personally. Women should never be your goal, they won't assure happiness.

Learn to ride, buy a bike, and take off. BTW, you know when I pull the hottest chicks of my life? I'm sure this will come as no surprise...but it is when the last thing I focus on is women. This applies to hot girls only.

Average looking babes will flake and of course, hate you.

Did you know this about yourself before you typed out this diatribe? :rolleyes:

Re-read what you just typed above bro, and the answer is right there.
 

"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'm happy to see someone who feels me. I thought about letting all this game go. As you say, learn to ride, buy a bike, and take off and hopefully a special beautiful girl would ask me for a ride. It seems very risky. But makes alot of sense. I dont know if I can pull this off. I have never attempted to escape the social norm and embrass the rebel that resides in me all this time. Reasonable doubt and fear still linger in my mind, holding me back. But I must overcome it and find the real me. A question I ask myself far many times and have yet to answer.
