"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.
know the diff between stopping power and lethality?

"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.

But the answer you're looking for is something like big bullets versus small caliber rounds. Poking small holes in people, at least one at a time unlike a shotgun, won't knock people down. It's lethal because they'll bleed out and die eventually, but that can take a little while.

People argue the stopping power/lethality of 5.56x45 and 7.62x39 all day.
What is generally recognized is 5.56 is more accurate but US troops have always been reporting that even if they hit a target with a 5.56 round, he tends to get up and walk away (how far he gets is a different matter).
7.62 within effective range tends to just blow a hole right through the target, delivering more kinetic energy per square inch through the torso, than 5.56 which tends to go into an axis spin and fragment upon entering the body.
Stopping power, in this discussion, can be defined as the kinetic energy delivered to the REAR of the target, just before the round exits the body. 5.56 on average tends to deliver less kinetic energy to the rear of the target than 7.62.
As I said at the top, thats all irrelevant when you get hit by either.
Without immediate medical treatment, a shot to the abdomen by a 7.62 or 5.56 (or .22LR) will kill you within 4 days once your intestinal tract is punctured.
This stopping power crap can be debated all day in the ivory towers of the internet forums, but the dimensions of the bullet are irrelevant when they are flying past your face.
edit: I rarely go hunting but when I do, I find the animal (deer, hog) is only flattened when using .30-06 or .308. We have used .270s and the animals tended to get shocked to the ground then immediately get up and flee. It didnt get very far but it still got up after it was hit. For hunters, you probably know that the animal fleeing isn't good, since the fleeing results in lactic acid spreading through the meat and making it less tasty.

No, the diff between stopping power and lethality is the TIME frame involved. I can "cause your death" by injecting you with AIDS blood, but it might take years for your heart to finally stop from the disease. I can stop you instantly with a ball bat applied across your gut, but normally, anyway, you will be ok in a couple of days.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

If the belief is reasonable, then yes you do. Although in a few states such as NY/NJ, there is a 'duty to retreat,' which means you have to try to run away first, unless you are in your own home when attacked. Generally speaking, the more liberal the state you live in, the less self-defense rights that you have. Shoot a mugger in Texas and you're a hero. Do it in NYC and they'll put you in jail with the mugger.

My state has a 'stand your ground' law. Here, even criminals can get off by claiming self-defense.Bible_Belt said:

Stopping power refers to how quickly a guy fvcking drops after you shoot him. Like when a round hits him and he drops vs like 5 rounds hit him and he still moving, perhaps trying to find his gun and fire back at you.
Lethality refers to statistics on how many survive a wound vs how many die. Russian military 5.54 cartridge for example is more lethal than NATO military 5.56, but NATO round has more stopping power.
