"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

This was a post I put on another message board. It was in regards to something I heard on Leykis and I equated to my love of cigars. This is the post.

I'm a acolyte of Tom Leykis and live my social life according to the tenets of "Leykis 101." http://members.tripod.com/tomleykis_101/101.html. Anyway, I was listening to his show last week and the sagacious Leykis was commenting on some article from match.com. The article was about balancing football with your relationship. Tom lambasted the guy who wrote the article and said he was a "p*ssy." Most importantly he made this statement. "The more you have to compromise with somebody, the more likely you shouldn't be with that person."

I thought, "damn he's right." I often here about guys who are relegated to smoking cigars outdoors on 20 degree nights or out in the garage to appease their spouses. Personally I would smoke where ever I wanted. Since it's my house and all.

I can see compromising on certain things like what to have for dinner, or whose relatives to visit for Christmas, but cigars is part of my persona, and when I meet a female that might be the first intimate detail she finds out about me, that I'm a cigar aficionado. If she can't accept that or can't stand the smell of cigar smoke, then maybe that's somebody I shouldn't be with.

This is the link to the responses. http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=19160 Most were along the lines of "that's why your single." and "you have to compromise in relationships."

Am I being a d*ck or do are this guys just p*ssy whipped?
 

"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.

IMHO what's more important to you? The relationship or the cigar smoking?

Can you find a partner that can live with that part of your persona?

Smoking outside is more about respect to the other person. In a relationship, you are only pu$$ywhip if you are giving in way more than your partner is. A real man knows the difference between the two.
