"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.
Jovan Belcher suicide
- Thread starter Burroughs
- Start date
"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.

The Chiefs are scared to say anything nice about a man who murdered a woman, because then they draw the wrath of the feminist protestors, plus the NFL is trying so hard to recruit female fans (October pink). That sucks for all of the players who really are grieving over his death; it's as though the NFL is not allowed to acknowledge their grief.
The murdered girlfriend had a 3-month old baby. She would have been a prime candidate for post-partum depression, which may have been why they were fighting. He also had at least one head injury on record and then played the next week. That was a few years ago, though. Poor impulse control is a major side effect of the NFL head trauma disease; that's why so many ex-players commit suicide. In this case, the impulse he couldn't control was the one to shoot his girlfriend.

Big surprise....none of the mainstream media want to discuss the fact that the girl friend may have provoked jovan to anger..
I guess its important to note that to mainstream perceptions women are angelic creatures who never provoke men :crackup: ...oh right 'alpha' men can never be moved by outside forces
apparently the girl friend threatened to take the child away multiple times and stayed out late frequently...frankly 99% of NFL/NBA wives/gfs are trash cans on legs

Whenever I read about something like this my first thought is, what was this guy's mental schema with regards to how he dealt with women in his life? Just like Junior Seau another girl-world casualty:

"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.

The story this morning is that the girlfriend went to a 'Trey Songz' concert Friday night and then to the afterparty with her friends. He didn't want her to go out, which is what they were fighting over. Her friends are saying that Belcher was obsessed with the idea that she must be cheating on him with the Trey Songz guy. It sounds a little like paranoid schizophrenia to me, and an increased risk of schizophrenia has been linked to head trauma.
oh come on...no way am I condoning him shooting her or even hitting her, but 3 months pregnant and out partying, he thinks she might be cheating, 'friends' arent going to say she was taking this singers guy load down her neck are they? diagnosing him with PS because of this incident???Bible_Belt said:
he obviously had bit wrong with his head to even contemplate shooting her but in the coming weeks/months, the truth will filter out about the background

CNN is blaming MANLINESS for the murder / suicide.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Dude was drinking heavily every night, abusing pills, had a head injury. I'd want to get my three-month old baby out of there too. She may have been a typical immature 22 year old, but I don't blame her for leaving him, and she didn't deserve to die.

I wonder if he was on booze and pills when he shot her 9 times. Booze and pills can make you do some crazy things. What kind of pills were they?Findog said:

The b!tch used him and then cheated on him, and it drove him crazy? Maybe she is BPD. Most likely this is it.betheman said:

Belcher was involved in at least two instances of fighting with a woman while at the University of Maine to the extent that the campus police came.
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...e-report-campus-punch-window-cut-arm/1744281/
I also thought the quote from this reuters article to be interesting. If Belcher had always been on steroids, that would explain his amazing athletic prowess and the way he worked his way up to being an NFL starter, although I don't know how easy it is to beat NFL drug testing.

Don Hooton, who founded the Taylor Hooton Foundation to promote steroids education in 2004, seven months after his son, Taylor, committed suicide following his use of anabolic steroids, suspects doping.
"Every time I hear a story like this, my mind runs immediately to anabolic steroids," Hooton said. "Not necessarily to the exclusion of anything else, but because anabolic steroids can affect the mind in these crazy ways.
"I hope when they do the autopsy on this young man, that they look for these substances because it's possible that what we saw was 'Roid Rage'"

"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.
First thing I thought was "Junior Seau."
While I'm generally in the kill-the-girlfriend camp, in this case, it would have been better for the man if he just left her.
I couldn't care less what would be better for the slvt-wh0re. And yes, the penalty for a woman cheating should be death. How would that be unfair to men? Men always feel like killing themselves when their women cheat on them. Did you know that adultery is a felony in the Philippines that is frequently punished by prison time and loss of rights to home and children?
(There is no such thing as being "fair" to women. All men are always trying to fvck all women, and all women are in constant competition with each other. So don't kid yourself. No one is trying to "help" a woman.)

According to a law enforcement official close to the investigation -- and contrary to published reports -- Belcher spent Friday night "partying" with another woman at the Power and Light District, a bar area in downtown K.C. He returned home between 6:30 and 7 a.m., at which point he and Perkins argued.
