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.
Martial Arts Death Touch

- Start date
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
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.

I think the touchless striking is BS, but the 'touch of death' is a real thing. There is a nerve in the neck that will easily render another person unconscious if hit. The problem is that the target is tiny and easy to miss. To be able to realistically use something like that in a real fight, you need about twenty years of practice.
Not fake, but it is all psychological. Derren Brown does something similar, where he punches the air in front of a person, and they get knocked to the floor.
The psychology behind it is the belief that your body is going to enter a state of shock after this "death touch" will likely cause it to go into a state of shock. Basically the placebo effect. It's all fabricated in the person's mind. The guy's students all believe in his ability to "death touch", so their brain is tricked into entering a state of shock. Derren brown does this in one of his tv shows, very effectively on martial arts trainers. I think behind the scenes, he hypnotises them to be susceptible to the punches, which is in effect what this trainer has done to his students, as they believe he has the power.

"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.
You can kill somebody by smashing the ribcage hard enough that it caves the heart.
Other than that, I don't think there's a death 'touch'.
You can crush the carotid arteries to cut off blood to the brain. That can lead to death.

I completely agree. The fact that the "death touch" didn't work on anyone but his own students is all one needs to know. It's like those crazy revivalist preachers you see tap people's forehead and the person faints to the ground and swears it was God that did it. Lots of other religious practices have things were people lose their minds or enter some altered state of consciousness going through some ritual. But I think they are just psyching themselves out.CaptainJ said:
