LMFAOI must admit I got off on turning it off and watching her suffer like a squirming crack addict with no crack, especially at the end when things got really bad between us.
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.

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.
Read the part in bold that you wrote. Do you still wonder where your sisters got their laziness and discouragement of house chores from? Working isn't an excuse to not take an active part in running a home, working is to be done for the home and not at the expense of it anyways. Not saying women should do everything, just that they should do their fair share of housework. Meaning this isn't about gender roles, it's about how people in general can function and live together.You're right about my parents not being in sync. To be honest, I have no idea how they got married, they're complete opposites. My mom isn't super sloppy or anything, it's mostly cuz she hates doing all of the normal motherly stuff (cooking, cleaning, etc.) and cuz she works. I don't know where my sisters get their laziness from tbh. I'm no Mr. Clean, but I clean up. My brother is spartan clean lol. But I may have some forms of leverage over them, I'll keep that in mind.
Yeah, at this point it is. It's mostly the attitude though that says "you're nothing, and I'm better than you" that sometimes gets me wondering like "who the hell are you to treat me, or ANYONE like that when your lazy ass can't do **** but complain about your weight or some other stupid ****". It's the arrogance associated with them that bothers me. I honestly don't know how they're going to get married lol.Similar situation as yours, it works wonders when the internet or their electronics are down. If I had a way to jam cell phone signals it would be grand.
It is seriously disappointing how easy it is for women to exponentially spiral out of control.
As far as what LiveYourDream said, easier said then done living with people like this at home effects your own life, you can ignore them etc etc keep yourself busy but at the end of the day you can not sleep peacefully in your own bed.
OP you need leverage. Heavy leverage that can't be pulled and will be respected. Idk about your parents but at the very least they need to get on board and you and your brother need to take control.
We don't need another 2 out of control women in the world.
Also it's no longer about respect, you do not need their respect, they don't even know how to phantom respect. They don't even know what it is. You need obedience.
Yeah I see what you're saying. If everyone cleaned up after themselves, we wouldn't have too many issues. I'm thinking of possible leverage over them as of right now. The thing is, I still use the Internet myself. And not for social media purposes either (I got rid of all that stupid crap). But perhaps when I'm not using it.Read the part in bold that you wrote.

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
Yes you should, because it was funny!LMFAOshould not be laughing but jeez lol!
Ha! Good luck with that! Spending 3 hours with them will drain you mentally so much that you will need to go thru rehab for 2 weeksGive the 18 yr old my number, now you got half your problem solved .or give it to @KingofPuss .. Give the 13 yr old to @yungballa (young don juan in the making!) and then your problems are solved.
We'll take care of it![]()
Haha.. I was only kidding but yeah man.. I can imagine your struggle! I bet it's great motivation to work hard, get away and live an independent lifeHa! Good luck with that! Spending 3 hours with them will drain you mentally so much that you will need to go thru rehab for 2 weeks
Not gonna lie, it actually isHaha.. I was only kidding but yeah man.. I can imagine your struggle! I bet it's great motivation to work hard, get away and live an independent life
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.
My Dad especially says that some mistakes should not be made at all or else it will affect you forever. I've been telling him to let them fail since I was 13 so that they will learn now better than later. But he wouldn't listen.In time they will learn... In time when they leave your parents homes and have to live out in the real world they will have to learn that nobody will serve them anything on a sliver platter. Let them make that mistake. No man is going to be interested in a slob, so they are only hurting themselves and their options in the future. They will set their expectations and their entitlement so high that they are bound to get shattered when they fall back down to earth. And you will be there saying "I told you so" when they do.
