"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.

So I had a meeting with my shrink yesterday. I see her once every 2 weeks. We got on the subject of men and women or what not and she was telling me that men think they know what women want but they don't, beucase well my boyfriend has a pot belly and he's so confident. I was like well **** woman you're 50 lol. no offense. i mean,s he's actually not ugly at all, and i have a thing for women who dress up business like and she likes to wear really expensive **** me pumps, but she's still 50 lol. and she looks 50. she's not one of those 50 year olds that looks 35 or ****, she's 50. of course your boyfriend has a pot belly you old **** lol.

now she trying to make it sound like that's what she wanted all along
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

She knows that women's heads are fvvcked up and knows you know that. So she is trying to tear down your confidence and make you doubt yourself because the more men that know what you know, the less power women have as a whole.

Hope you aren't paying much. That sounds like a crappy shrink.

I briefly dated a shrink.

It was one of the worst relationships ever. She was highly insecure, jealous, clingy, wouldn't respect my alone time, needed constant attention or she freaked out and sent nasty texts, on and on.

I'm glad that you are finally getting professional help, which you clearly need. Unfortunately, it seems like you are getting it from the wrong source. A 50-year-old broad that wears "fvck me pumps" and talks about her boyfriend and "what women want"? Are you seriously paying money for that? Just find some bored housewife at the mall and chat her up. She'd talk about that sh!t all day for free.

serious mom calling? are you so lacking of arguments to have to use this?

only thing I can question here is why post this? venting? that is ok, but why you see this shrink to have this kind of talk? did you try to talk with other?

she showed me a pic if i had to guess late 30's early 40's

been going to this woman for 3 years we have a pretty good report and we shoot the **** sometimes
 

"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.

Where in the f\_/ck did this come from? What did backbreaker do to you to make you think he "clearly needs" professional help? He is one of the *few* happily married men on this site maybe we can all learn a thing or two from him.

I swear the maturity level on here is going downhill fast. WTF????

Bokanovsky, why don't you go pick on the high schoolers in the HS forum. You are clearly acting like one.

BB, I do have to wonder why you are seeing a therapist/psychologist/psychiatrist/whatever. I know you've talked about it before, but I forgot. I can't imagine paying someone to talk to them for three years, even if I did believe in shrinks (which I don't). Maybe you're becoming too Californian :rolleyes:

I thought BB is the most happy person in this forum, did I miss something during my absent from this forums ?

Either you're a little naive or you haven't read enough of his posts. BB has been trolling this board for over a decade. He's not even a real person - at least not the person he pretends to be on this board. He's been exposed as a fraud by Burroughs and others on a number of occasions. Do a search before you start jumping out of your skin white-knighting for BB.
 

"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.

Can we finally close the book on backbreaker and ban his fairy @ss? If this post, then his subsequent follow ups, haven't proven that he's nothing more than a pimple on this site's asscrack, then nothing will. I'm really just not sure about the moderators' agendas over the past few months/years. Why is this self-absorbed tool allowed to remain?

To all of you Detectives on this site like Bokanovsky and speed_dawg who have done an FBI level background checks on backbreaker, please list/articulate your accusations against him? I and I'm sure many others are curious. Truth be told I haven't background checked him or any poster on SS. I take what people post at face value. Please enlighten us with your investigation. Maybe we can all learn something.

I think the shrink visits have something to do with his previous drug use. Still, I can't imagine going to sessions like that for three years unless I was court ordered to do so. And even then I'd be looking for ways to get out of it. Doesn't sound like much fun to me.

Shrinks operate a lot like the government. They "solve" problems, but in doing so they create/unearth more "problems" that require more problem solving, which create more problems...ad infinitum.

If you've got the cash or insurance, and you're willing to pay, I imagine most shrinks would be glad to keep you coming for a good while.

Just imagine of other businesses operated that way. Like if you took your car in to get it fixed, and he fixed on problem, and purposely created another so you'd keep coming back.

Obviously if people had a specific problem they wanted to fix (like a leaky radiator hose) and the psych kept bring out more junk, they would go somewhere else.

Must be something else going on. (In the general shrink-patient relationship).

Need for validation? Need for approval? Need for emotional maintenance?

I used to teach English in Japan, and a lot of adult students didn't study because they wanted to learn English, they just wanted somebody to talk to on a regular basis, that they knew would always be there and never reject them.

That kind of stability could be comforting to a LOT of people.

Seriously, guys... Just don't read BB's posts if they annoy you, it's that simple.

As I see it, people can start threads for several reasons:

1. To seek advice
2. To give advice
3. To think out loud, write down their thoughts like one does in a diary.

Many of BB's threads fall into the third category. These threads are like rhetorical questions, it seems like the writer is asking for a response but he really isn't. You don't have to read them and you don't have to reply to them, no one is forcing you to do either...

Furthermore, the guy gives good advice here and there and sometimes has interesting thoughts to share. Read and absorb anything that's helpful from his posts and ignore anything that annoys you from his posts, no need to get all worked up!
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.
