"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.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
On the other hand, if you play it like you're the only one you can entirely trust, it can be a good move. You wont go through many troubles of people backstabbing you, etc. and you have to trust yourself before you can trust others anyway.

In todays age it's easy to think the only was to go is to look out for #1 -but when you see people at the extremes of life -as in life or death situations -what really matters is their relationships with others and with God... that's just my observation.
You don't have to blindly trust everyone (especially women you're dating) but trusting people and being a part of something greater than yourself with them is what makes life worth living.
Someone great once said "To believe all men honest is foolish. To believe no men honest is something much, much worse."

A human society is one in which each man holds as an absolute: that every man is an end in himself, and that other men are not his pawns, nor is he theirs.
Or, in the words of John Galt,
"I swear -- by my life and by my love of it -- that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine."
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Well if you want to be selfish and never have to ask help from anyone. Great idea.Originally posted by bob246
Is that the right mentality to have? 'Im all in this by myself, fuk everyone else'
This is got nothing to do with girls just asking if this is a good mentality to have in life.
Don't come crying to me when your leg is broken and you need help.
No, it is not a good mentality to have. The "fuk everyone else" attitude will leave you lonely and is just a defense mechanism from feeling and thinking properly. Just "fuk" the people who don't deserve your friendship and trust. Sincere, innocent people don't deserve it.Originally posted by bob246

People have funny habits. You can ask them for help, and in return you help them. But very few, if any, will stick by you when things go completely downhill. And if they do, its usually because they're worse off than you.
My opinion, take it as that, is simple. Help other people, extend a neighbourly hand, but always remember that the bottom line is YOU.

I have this "all by myself" attitude, but If there's someone needing help I usually help. You never know when you'll need some, and it's a good way to start new friendships.
You can be "all by yourself" without being arrogant or selfish. Otherwise you'll end up all alone.

That's the way I like to look at it:
This is MY story.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
