Women who carry mace.

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.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
I can understand many of the things you said up there, but what's so bad about vegetarians?Originally posted by So Many Ways
Major turnoffs/deal breakers:
1. Tattoos/body piercings, especially the broads that get someones name tattooed on their body and titty tattoos, disgusting. This is my number 1 turnoff.
2. Fat, for obvious reasons. If I see a fat chick naked, it's just...ugh
3. Single mothers, i ain't tryin to play daddy to kids that ain't mine, i don't want kids of my own for that matter
4. Overly religious/Christian fundamentalist. I have very strong views on organized religion which I'd rather not get into here.
5. Chicks who make themselves look ugly on purpose. It's hard to explain, but you know the type of broads that wear those thick black plastic glasses or dye their hair some weird color or cut it real short or do some other things to their appearance that just ruins any attractive or feminine appeal they once had. I never really did understand that. I hope I make sense here. It's somewhat related to turnofffnumber 1.
6. Chicks with excessive funk such as bad breath, body odor, just poor hygiene in general.
7. Bad Attitude/No sense of humor. I think that's fairly obvious.
Here are other turnoffs that aren't as severe as the 7 mentioned above
Big bolted on tits. There's a silicon epidemic going on in southern california.
Chicks who don't drink, ever.
Vegetarians
Chicks with tons of guy friends
Airheads/space cadets
Clingy/Needy chicks
****teases
Women who have issues with my choice of friends
Well, it's matter of being into the same things. I once dated a woman who didn't drink, ever and was a vegetarian at the same time. After that experience, I told myself never again. She was cool and all, but it was quickly becoming an issue.Originally posted by Abbott

You're the only person I know of who's said that, so I just had to ask.

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.
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.

Understand that I'm in Minnesota and:
- Overly soft, shapely and feminine here look like the Michelin Man and are known in other states as "Snow Cows."
- Dating overly emotional and sentimental women takes a lot of work bolstering her self esteem.
- Overly submissive women tend to get boring possibly causing guys to stray. That submissivness is known as "Minnesota Nice" around here but it's just a lame front for passive agression.
- Over complimentary women don't seem sincere, plus in the back of your mind you wonder if she just wants something.
