"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.

The song is about John. He falls for a girl but because of the lack of a relationship with her father, she isn't able to reciprocate the same emotions. He puts in so much effort to help her only to realize in the end that theres nothing he can do for her. after the whole ordeal he understands it isn't his fault..

so he says fathers be good to your daughters because a woman will love other men the way she was loved by her father.

mothers can relate to their daughters so a mother also needs to love her daughter as well.
(common sense both parents need to function and love their children but still very nice to hear)

- I love this song, its very human, very moving and we can all relate to the experience of knowing a woman or women like that.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

interesting analysis

I always thought the song was just gay, but maybe I was wrong. John Mayer himself, tho, is definitely a girly man.

no, can't say that I have...or that I'd ever want to, considering how gay most of his songs sound
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

you haven't heard his bluesy songs. all his old pop-alternative songs were decent for the time... but his latest album is the best.

and for you douchebags who like to analyze songs if they're dj or not: check out the lyrics for "i don't trust myself".

not to mention how the radio plays his top three worst songs on the radio... "dreaming with a broken heart", "waiting on the world to change", and "gravity"

John Mayer is THE MAN.

That guy's got a lot of talent, and YES-----his guitar playing is DEFINITELY far above what's been passing for "lead guitarist criteria" these days. lol

John Mayer is not that great of a guitar player and I'd stick my **** in his butt just to prove a point.

He's gay, period...

Not that theres anything wrong with that...
