"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.

Not really a question and not necessarily looking for advice either, just wanted to say something...

I've been extremely busy this past week. I haven't even made time to hang out with my friends, even over the weekend, because I've just been so busy both as a student and busy with multiple jobs. Even so, normally I have time I can make for them throughout the week somewhere. Meant to go out this past weekend with a girl I've been dating for five or six months, didn't get around to even calling or talking to her.

Mostly I just wish I had made more time for some sort of human social interaction. I've been stuck at my office or at my desk and haven't hardly said a word to a single person that wasn't a coworker and work related. I miss my girl and I really miss some of my friends whose calls/contacts I haven't even found time to return or even listen to voicemessages.

This week probably won't be any different. I'm in my office right now and I work 14 straight hours again today.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

14 straight hours? My goodness man. I work 12 hours a day on my job and I feel tired,but I work like 4 days in a row each week,then I have 3 days in a row off. So I'm pretty cool with that. All I can say is just hang in there and tough it out. Maybe next week will be better.

I need to be able to pay for school. This is my last year though, so I'm almost there and won't have to both support myself and pay a bunch of tuition. I've been fine most weeks with juggling my jobs (been doing it nearly a year now)... it's just recently they both have been a bit more demanding than usual. It should settle down a bit after this week though.

I'm getting some days off next week. Haven't had a day off since the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, November 25th. Should be nice and am looking forward to it. The girl and I are going out to Disneyland one day, a good friend of mine will be visiting from out of town for another couple days. (I just need to make it there is all)
 

"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.

Why are you giving up sex for money? Get a loan, then go out and have sex with your girl ASAP. All this work is moot if you can't enjoy yourself.
