"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.

If both people are very confident than the relationship may not last that long.
Interesting, definitely worth thinking about.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

On the topic of marriage, that is a hoax, and all men should avoid it. There are no benefits to it, besides miniscule tax cuts. You could be better serving yourself learning about investing than getting tax breaks by giving away your freedom.

I have to side with the optimists.

LTRs are, or at least should be, centered on love.

Being in love rocks -- if only for the constant, fantastic sex :)


It (love and the sex) wears out though after maybe 6 months.

I'm on the fence about whether an LTR is worth it after that. But the side of the fence with all the women I haven't fcked always looks pretty enticing at that point.

I'm glad that you are realizing that LTRs are for the most part completely useless with modern women.

It is a fact is only 1 out of every 50 women you date is good enough to be in a relationship with.

It is just a sad fact that modern women are complete trash. They are mostly hores and very confused with their roles as females.

I can only suggest that you focus on women from other cultures who still have respect for men.

I'm not trying to be negative here I'm just telling you the truth.

The most positive thing I can tell you is that there ARE good women out there. You just have to get off your fat ass and find them. Just don't be afraid to do some work.

Agreed.

However, the one with more insecurities can end it based just on that reason. That they are too insecure to stay in the relationship. I know guys and girls who have done this before!
 

"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.

I just got out of a relationship of almost 2 years... A lot of what's said in this post is true. Being that I was with someone for a while and have had another LTR prior, this is how i feel


Never stop searching for true love :)

This is true, I've been on the receiving end of this type of relationship. Woman thinks things are going well, TOO WELL! She feels she isn't deserving of such good fortune and believes she's going to eventually fvck things up so she breaks it off before she does! WTF???!!!:confused:

But this was long ago before I learned how to qualify women. I've learned to stay away from women with self esteem problems.
