"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.

I got dumped by a girl because I was too overattached.

In the end, I summarized many of my previous behaviours (even before meeting her) to find out if I did something wrong.

So, These are some interesting points I found out:
I relied on her to be in peace. Even further, my emotional stability depended of her. When I was with her everything was peace, but a little after I felt alone again.
When I was without her, I was desperate of finding someone. The desperation was in my face even when I tried to hide it.
I was always escaping myself with social networks.
When I'm with my friends, I was too concerned of what they think of me. Meanwhile some other friends do what they want and are accepted like that.

I have my friends, dads, a psychologist, a job, a career and enough money to buy things I like. But none of that ever made me feel in peace and secure about myself.

I had hope for a relationship to make me feel secure, and now even that fell down.
Yes, sure another woman will make me feel better. But not complete, I lost hope of feeling complete with a woman.


Now I'm using the breakup to find myself and get used to be alone. I think that will even make me deal with relationships way better like I do now.
We all say "You can't love someone if you don't love yourself" and "You need how to be alone to be with someone", but do we ever learn that? What about being really alone? Without even knowing if you will get chances with another woman. In the long run, yes, of course. But nobody guarantees you that next week or even next month you'll be with someone.
 

"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.

I'm glad this is an issue you're learning about. But if it makes you unhappy, you can always go out and meet new girls, it works great.

I'm not referring to be alone in physical terms.
I'm saying you can have a good moment with a girl, in contrast to a LTR where you know you have a partner to talk and have a good time.

Between that, you will be alone. And you have to deal with it.

Yeah I know. I'm just saying that loneliness can push you to get out of the house and go meet new people. You'll still have to be lonely sometimes, even during an LTR. My girlfriend and I are very independent, which makes our time together even better.
