"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.

since girls want a guy that they can produce offspring with, does telling them that I dont like little kids make them less interested??
 

"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.

Wait, is this forum only dedicated to those guys who want to just go around and get laid and never get in a serious, dedicated relationship?

Tell her yes, but you haven't found a perfect girl to have kids with yet.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I'm sort of in between on this. I agree that discussing children is not an early topic for dating/getting to know someone. But that does not mean is should never come up. Its not a basis for qualifying or disqualifying someone to go out with. That would be a weird thing to do, no?

If the relationship is going in a serious direction (months after it starts), that's a different story.

So keep it light & funny out of the box.

Besides, how old are you? You could (& probably will) change as you age. I didn't want or think much of kids when I was younger. But I have three now and wouldn't trade them for anything. And by the time we started having kids, I was great with the idea.

im only 20, but this question randomly popped into my head the other day. i had to ask it before i forgot it. i agree i might change my view as i get older, but i was wondering if the question DID come up now and i said i dont like kids, would that make her even slightly less interested.

I say NO.


You have to understand that "attraction" is ingrained.


It's a function of the human body that gets activated when certain conditions are met.


Since it's a bodily function,that means it isn't a choice.


If you're meeting the conditions that cause attraction in a woman,then she'll be attracted AUTOMATICALLY,and the "fact" that you don't like kids won't change that,.




If I cut my finger,it heals...AUTOMATICALLY...by itself.


It's not a decision I make,it's a bodily function.



If I go outside when it's 100 degrees,my body will start to sweat...AUTOMATICALLY...by itself,whether I like it or not.


The body healing itself when it's cut,and sweating when it's in excessive heat are things THE BODY DOES ON IT'S OWN under certain specific conditions.



Well,attraction is also a bodily function that gets activated when certain conditions are met.




You meet those conditions in a woman,and as long as those conditions are present,you can say whatever you want,and she'll still be attracted to you.



And if she has the choice between following her emotions and the attraction she feels towards you,versus the logical "fact" that you don't like small children,well which do you think she'll follow?



More than likely,what will happen is if she wants kids,and is attracted to you,but you tell her you don't like kids,she'll just try to change you into wanting kids instead of losing interest.



If she's an older woman who wants kids and she's attracted to you,she'll probably put up with it as long as she can,then if she sees that you just aren't going to change your mind,then against everything in her heart,mind,and emotions,she may leave the relationship.



Her leaving the relationship doesn't mean she's not still attracted to you,only that she went against her emotions and feelings of wanting to stay with you,which is RARE.



It would have to be an EXTREME CIRCUMSTANCE for a woman to go against her emotions.



So to me,no,telling her you don't like kids won't make her lose interest,IF she's attracted to you.


If she isn't attracted,then she'll use the "you not liking kids" as an excuse to end things.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I'm gonna tell you this from a father's point of view. Before I had kids I never wanted any, never felt comfortable around kids and didn't care for other people's children at all. Now that I have one of my own I love kids, they are great.

I think the best anwser is "someday, when I'm financially stable and I find the right woman". Because that might be true someday. Good luck.
