"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 still do and i am 28 years old, but - i study , own a car , got a job and its very hard to pay rent where i live , almost impossible to hold a car , pay for education and have a full time job.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

What do you expect us to think? we think that you have your reason to do it and we are not gonna make fun of your or piss you off for that.

However you cannot expect such tolerance from chicks, you either belong to a particular role model or you "lose points", I suggest you to dont even bother to tell the truth from the beginning and even less trying to justify you.
Tell them after you had sex and and do in a totally unapologetic way with the "take it or leave it b1tch" attitude.

Do not expect any sympathy from girls.

I think that it's becoming less of an issue these days with so many people moving back home for whatever reason, however there still is a stigma as chicks may assume that your mother still washes/cooks/cleans for you and that you can't take care of yourself.

I've only been asked this question once myself and I told her "Because it takes a lot less time to save up for a house when you don't have to pay rent." and left it at that. She didn't dig any further.

dude, i don't care if you live in a dumpster. if your game is good you'll get girls, if not then you could live in a mansion and be sexless. You get the idea? It doesn't matter.

If you dont care what girls think about the situation why bother making a thread about it?

Do you really not care or are you just telling yourself you shouldnt care?

I know a lot of people who live with their parents and have girlfriends. It's common in my country, very very common.

Someone could say also - I don't have a car, no girl would like me/be with me.
It's just your brain deceiving you, there's always a way.
You better focus on things you can change, and who knows...In a year or two you might just have your own place. (but then you'll discover something different to stress about).

If a girl asks me if i still live with my parents or alone i tell the truth , i explain the situation and why i still live with them. if a girl is not accepting this its her problem. some accept it and some are not - why a guy needs to live on his own and to a girl is ok?:D

I think society pressures us into believing we HAVE to be at a certain point in our lives or have certain possessions to be considered "socially-adjusted" or "acceptable." For example, by 18 we have to have lost our virginity, by 21 we have to be in a relationship with a girlfriend, by 24 we have to move out of our parents house, etc, etc. If not, we are considered "losers".

Fvck this mentality. I think this is all BS. Compete with yourself, not others. All these expectations and labels are society's way of contributing to collective social stability and don't benefit the individual whatsoever.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

This is kind of a cultural thing, isn't it? In the US, most kids are expected to be out on their own by age 18, or shortly thereafter. Maybe after college. I can see this changing as the standard of living in the US declines.

In the past, in agricultural families especially, several generations would live together in the same house. I'm not sure that was such a bad system.

I saw way too many of my friends try to leave the nest before they were truly ready only to either get stuck in a career they hate and are in too much debt to leave it in order to go back to school or had to return home humiliated with their tail between their legs. I knew for the first half of my 20's that I hadn't truly figured out what I wanted to do and certainly wasn't ready to go off on my own yet after seeing what had happened to so many others.

And it's a good thing that I decided to return to college instead of moving out and staying on the previous career path, otherwise I would have had the double-whammy of being in a job that was quickly being killed by outsourcing plus buying a property right before the housing bubble collapsed.

Now I'm more educated, have a much more lucrative and stable career, and have a chance to buy a house at a much lower price than it would have cost back in 2008. Pretty much everyone admits looking back that I made the best call I could have made at the time.

Depends on the reason.

At least though, a man living at home should have a job and contribute to the running of the house.

There are some inner battles involved. On one hand the man in you screams for self-reliance, on the other your logic knows that you cannot afford to live on your own.

Just keep this situation simple - you MUST be doing all you can to work towards self-reliance. If you are living with your parents, be honest about it to the girl if she asks you or if you invite her over. It IS in your plans to get your own place.

She will test your resolve, be strong.

"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.

Difficult to tell you how a girl is going to react emotionally to a man living with his parents in older age. Some girls will love it, some girls will hate it. We can't tell you how a girl is going to react to such a statement.

Generally girls at that age, who are level headed, look for men who are stable, have a career, can support a family, protect them. It's no big secret.

I have friends who are millionaires in their 30s and have trouble with women, I have other friends who have no job and convince women to leave their home country, family, and friends, and marry them and have kids in their own country. It all depends how good of a salesman you are and whether you can close or not. No one cares about the specifics.

Canada, eh?
I ll be splitting a mortgage for a house with my parents next year. Neither of us could afford a house by themsleves given the property prices in Vancouver. It surely beats the apartment dwelling.
