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.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Got it. :rockon:Maxtro said:Eh it might be true. It would make sense that women would have a stronger immune system simply because they are the ones that get pregnant and have the babies. If a woman gets sick and dies while pregnant, odds are the baby is going to die as well. It would make sense that nature would want women to stay as healthy as possible.
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.
Could this also help explain why on avg women live longer then men?The Bat said:And it's just the "first line of defense" where women may have an upper hand.
Funny thing about statistics is that they can be distorted to fit whatever agenda you wish.DJDamage said:Could this also help explain why on avg women live longer then men?
Also on a side note its best not to act weak and helpless when you are sick if you are around women, they will not sympathize with you and they will lose respect for you in the long haul.
My comment had nothing to do with "Maning" up actually. Hell if I am feeling sick (bad headache, diarrhea, flu etc) then I ain't going to hang around some chick and complain. I am just going to go home and deal with it by myself, unlike some other guys who want to make their girlfriend's into their mothers and "take care of them".The Bat said:And I agree with you about the second part. If you are still mobile and aren't terminally ill, then "man" up and deal with the illness.
This also bring's the difficulty issue of being sick when you are married. If you looked at some of the comments, you would see that most women do not respect their husband's if they become ill and end up doing nothing but rest as a result. Fvck that! if I am sick then I need some time off to myself (peace and quiet) and I don't need some nagging wife questioning the legitimacy of my illness and equating that to being lazy and being less then a man.
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.
