California is expensive cause of its blue government.
"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Meanwhile in Florida...

"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.

No. California is expensive because of geography.

There are tons of state with the same geography as California that are not as expensive. The only reason it is expensive is because rich people with a superiority complex hauled themselves up on the coastal states and created a monopoly of power. This isn't even an argument. Literally the story of Hollywood.

Nah. What other states have 8,000 mountains less than 50 miles from an 800 mile long coastline?

Mountains are not the selling point of California [not the only one anyway].
"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.

Not the point.
How many domiciles can be built on a mountain?
How many mountains are in Texas?
Actually Texas has more than 40 mountain ranges. Western part of state on mostly remote 90% private land. Didn’t know that until I did a lookup, and guess where I live…
Not as high as others, but some top out in the 8K ft. range.
We’re #7 in coastline length behind #5 Cali…

Point is that geography dictates the supply and demand of available housing. Texas is flat and land rich. California, Manhattan/NYC, and the DMV are not.
Yes, mostly an area driven phenomenon, usually focused on cities or geographic features like a coast or mountains. Put all three close together and it turns into $$$ dynamite.
My kids house in Austin, Tx has increased (edit: $575K in market value since they bought it for 925K two years ago. Our major cities are built out also. The only thing keeping in city house price inflation somewhat under control is our cities are not land locked. Not unknown here for lower incomes to buy as far as 50 miles or farther out of city and commute.
