"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.

Ever hear a woman tell her girlfriend "men are dogs?" Well, I beg to differ, you see men's lives are actually worth less than dogs.

Mary Winkler premeditatively shoots and kills her (allegedly abusive) husband in cold blood. Result: She serves 63 day in prison.

Michael Vick runs a dogfighting ring, shoots and kills a dog. Result: 1.5 to 2.5 years in prison.

Not exactly a stat you'll find on feministing.com.
 

"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.

You forgot to mention that her husband was not a man, just some weak male who abused her.
The two people involved we're both unhealthy. That's just sad.
I hope the woman will better her ways and gets some more time to spend in prison.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

This proves men are better than women. Vick gets off with only 1.5 years for being a serial dog killer, while Mary Winkler got almost a life for killing one man.

Oh sh!t! This guy's right! We forgot about that part in the Constitution that says:

"Congress shall pass no law preventing a woman who claims she was abused to kill her alleged abuser outside of self-defense."

Awww snap, we forgot about the 10.5th Amendment!

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

how long were they married?
why would a woman choose to stay with a man who abused her?
it was 2006 not 1956, there are many places a gal could find help if she wanted out of an abusive relationship. church, family, friends, coworkers, shelters, low housing communities, cabinet for families and children, fellowships of concern, call the police and get a restraining order, go before a judge.... the list can go on and on.
did this abuse ever bother her enough to tell a soul about it?
can the 2 older children testify to this abuse?(not that they would put them on the stand to testify against either parent but still...)
she says her harmed the children by trying to suffocate them more than one time to get them to shut up... why did she continue to stay with him and raise those kids with him if he tried it ONE time?

if i was her, and the first time he ever hurt me or the children, i would have gotten my children out of there then. if i was being held hostage , i would wait for him to go to sleep and then i would have taken my bat across his knee caps and broke those damn knee caps and then i would have called the police and pressed charges.

so for any woman to secretly put up with "abuse" in 2006 from her husband the preacher is a crock of bull in my opinion.

LSE and mot taking responsibility for the circumstances of your life. It's no excuse so I do believe the woman should be punished appropriately. But I wouldn't care so much about her husband who was killed, that's all.
