"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.

I swipe left on those now I’m so sick of seeing these travel photos. If 4/5 of her photos are all International Travels, I swipe left instantly I dont gaf how hot she might look.

are we going to be having our first date riding mopeds in Morocco, or doing selfies from a donkey ride in some tourist trap in Peru, or are we meeting locally? Like for a coffee

i used to think traveling was fun but all the dating profiles has really bittered me up to the idea anymore.

show me a profile with a woman locally who is okay with being settled down and that is a huge bonus

if all she can muster is a bunch of Vacation Photos and “im a foodie!” She gets swiped left.
 

"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.

And if that's what's on tap for the first date, what would the 2nd date be? Remember it's gotta be fancier.

I’ve always wanted to ask those women how they paid for their trips. Bet you wouldn’t get the truth.
Or how young the boys were...
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I can't do it anymore myself...too many trips that are all a blur, both professionally and for leisure. Here and abroad. I'm broken down all-around, period. But whatever you do, I do not recommend anyone to travel outside of their country right now, unless you want to get kidnapped and become a lowly bargaining chip for some other entity.

The travel pics signal high maintenance woman to me. I had an ex like this wanting to take multiple expensive trips each year on my dime. After 2 trips I was fed up with it. Another one that really turns me off is the ****tail dress wine sipping pic that a lot of women have. As soon as I see that I instantly know she's not my type.

I mean I travel some and it’s expensive. I’m going to bora bora this summer and it’s easily gonna be $8000-10,000.
Went to Europe with a buddy of mine and had a blast. We both split everything down the middle. Had way more fun with him than traveling with a woman.
 

"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.

Whatever happened to that chick you were gonna take on a cruise?
I went on the cruise with her and her parents because I’d already paid for my way, made the most of the trip and had fun. Then ghosted her once we got back. She’s tried to get in touch a couple times since then over the last couple years but I just ignored her. She even tried to contact me through a friend of hers Facebook account pretending to be the friend, but I could tell it was her by the way she was writing lol

I love this story. I have some questions. Was your plan to ghost her all along? Did you butter her up real good on the cruise?

Exactly

if you question them about their little traveling habits they become defensive

these traveling girls also use it as a way to throw a wrench in your date i only date guys whoTravel a lot!”

These women have no plans to settle down and nest like a female

That's cool. They'll be going first wave to Taiwan anyways.
 

"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.

It’s because mostly they have no idea of how to fill their empty souls and yes many of them have empty souls.

They are interminably restless and run across the world incessantly, running away from their pathetic reality. And they usually are on OLD to find some dude that will take them on vacation, even if she has no use for him otherwise. If the target dude pushes for sex she makes the calculation if she’ll do it or not based on how valuable the trip is to her.

They have no idea of who they are outside of some real or invented trauma they made up to justify their whole existence. They are terrified to find out who they truly are and run away from difficult situations the moment they make you them uncomfortable, and it’s why relationships with them don’t last.

i think it has more to do about money. Somebody else is fitting the bill on these vacations

recently i met another Travel Girl and we were talking about rents in the city
She got all defensive talking about rent prices,
Eventually near the end of the conversation she says she lives rent free and her grandma pays her bills
And she had plans for an international vacation
I doubt she even worked a job
Her profile was a bunch of weirdo vacation pics from all over the place
i am glad we no longer chat

getting rid of these vacation girls is the best thing to do.
Obviously they screw guys and make bad decisions in every country like something nasty they are

I'm not the only one here who is experiencing these interactions lately with females that's coming off as contrived on their behalf I see.

I rather travel by myself or with a buddy(make sure they arent broke) I find traveling with buddies is more fun,we don't have to do everything togther. With a woman you have no choice hehe

Left swipe every time I see:

-Must have passport
-TSA Precheck required
-Love to travel
-I've been to 21 different countries
-I love random last minute trips
-Give me travel tips
-My love language is Travel
-I know I've found the one when he wants to sell everything and travel the world
-Must love to travel and have the ability to travel(<--code for pay for yours and pay for mine, I'm too cheap to pay)

I guarantee the majority of those trips were paid for by some dude. There's a reason ugly girls don't post travel pics.
