Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

First of all
I like to congratulate the
2008 World Champion Boston Celtics
defeating a basketball team that wears yellow, from california and have gone fishin in lakes 4-1.
It has been a great season with uncertainty and having faith in a common goal.
Special thanks to God for all his blessings, and Christ Jesus who Loves us.
Like to mention Doc Rivers an excellent coach plus the coaching staff.
Also Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo, Kendrick Perkins, and Paul Pierce.
Its been a long years on the road, but your finally did it. Congratulations Champions you all deserve it.

I think the Lakers also have home court advantage and the Celtics haven't been spectacular in anyway on the road. The celtics are a better team defensively and usually defense wins championships but again I think Kobe has just elevated the Lakers game to another level.
I think the lakers win in 6 games.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

The Lakers may have to go smaller to get more quickness with someone like Luke Walton instead of Radmanovic though otherwise Ray Allen is going to have a huge series especially since Pierce is going to struggle for every point he gets with Kobe on him.
I'm cheering for the Lakers but at least the "dynasty" spurs aren't in it
... everyone on that team is overrated as **** even Duncan, so at least the media will have to do something other than worshipping jesus ginobili. So I'm happy either way but I really hope the Lakers can pull it out.Case Sensitive

Actually I believe Michael Jordan is the Michael Jordan of our time.Bible_Belt said:
Kobe would make a nice ball boy.
"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.
I like perk as a banger but he's not suited for the quicker and more perimeter oriented Lakers frontcourt.wutangfinancial said:
Yeah I think KG has been the 2nd best player in the league for the past 5+ years, him and Kobe would make the MVP race every year if their teams didn't suck all that time.wutangfinancial said:
But Tim Duncan is the best 4 of all time right?
Nobody ever talks about him! And he just quietly does his work and the reason nobody knows how good he is is because he doesn't draw attention to himself. And nobody ever talks about the Spurs yet they have the greatest sports dynasty in the past century with their mind blowing 4 championships in 10 years. Case Sensitive

Kobe may be the best in the league now but comparing him to Jordan is pointless. It's not only an insult to Mike but an insult to Kobe.jahidi said:
Think about it. Once a player becomes TRULY great, the comparisons to other players stop. When Jordan was king, people didn't go around saying he was the "Dr. J" of today (although they did that at the beginning of his career). But when Mike came into his own the comparisons to everyone else stopped. If Kobe truly becomes great, no one will compare him to Jordan anymore. People will just say "he's Kobe Bryant". No comparisons needed.

"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.
Kobe already has become truly great which is why people are asking the question of whether or not he is better than Jordan. That's where the comparisons are coming from: trying to determine who is better, because people/media always want to rank the greats. Of course Jordan is the all time best but that fact that there are people even entertaining the thought that Kobe may be better than Jordan is a testament to Kobe's greatness.Case Sensitive said:
So you're saying Kobe isn't truly great because he's not as good as Michael Jordan? The only time people will stop comparing and say "he's Kobe Bryant" is when he becomes the undisputed best of all time which isn't going to happen. Until then people will compare him to his fellow legends of the game because, again, people like to rank the best players.Case Sensitive said:
This is the disrespect Kobe gets though. Lebron James was practically inducted into the NBA hall of fame when he was in high school and Manu freakin' Ginobili makes an all NBA team and gets worshiped like a god but we can't even talk about Kobe being a legend.

Good job kg for pulling the game out..
Awesome!
"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.
