"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

"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.

"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.

"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.

Think about your close friends...Do they make fun of you? Yes, because they care....So when ever she makes fun of you agree with her, but agree with confidence...
Her: "youre retarded"
you: (with confidence and smiling while saying this)
"Yeah I know right? I dont think its a good idea for you to hang out with me...you might catch it....
Just think of something and dont get mad...
My friends make fun of me, tease me all the time and I do the same to them because I care about them..... By agreeing you are now in control and you can make it go in any direction....
Plus this can lead into bantering....role playing etc...
Later on when she does something funny or something stupid say "I thought I was retarded" (While smiling and sarcastic tone)
And when you do something stupid funny you can even make fun of yourself.... BUt do it with confidence!
thanks phatboi good answer i lke it and will use it have good day comic_relief

I could just imagine the role playing of the retard.phatboi408 said:
"Fine, I get to be the retard this time. But your the retard next time."
Personally, I had a discussion about this very thing with my girlfriend about agreeing with a person if they are making fun of you. I said that you should take responsibility for it and then turn the joke around on them.
I always call my girlfriend "the brains of the operation." and she feels good about herself, but I always neg her about it. Like if she does something, "I can't believe that you are the brains of the operation. What does that make me the retard or something."

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
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.

It's all in love.
Though one time when I was younger, a girl I was dating said I looked like I had down syndrome and it really hurt my feelings.
But sometimes depending on my haircut my eyes do look too close together and I think I kind of do.

How would you react if she called you a giraffe?intel123 said:
Are you one? No. It's a ridiculous sentiment, so treat it as such. You wouldn't feel the need to prove that you were, in fact, not a giraffe. So don't worry about proving that you're not a retarded nerd.
