"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.

Long story short my girlfriend just ended our relationship, she tried feeding me the "I still have feelings for my ex" speech, i should have known this was coming because this is the second time that we've been back together, i foolishly believed that it could work out, i wanted to believe it and yet the inevitable happened.

Maybe i don't deserve advice for taking her back but right now i'm hurting and don't know what to do.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

No real advice to give other than the standard.

1) Instant No contact (AT ALL)
2) Get rid of her number, facebook, myspace and anything else
3) Take a month off from her, if she contacts you, it needs to be by phone. DO NOT RESPOND TO TEXTS.
4) Work on yourself, heal and move on.


There is nothing here but the same replies from everyone else. The fact is the girl said she still has feelings for her ex. You just became "rebound-man" as you did not do enough for her but she was at least honest enough to admit it. Sadly you don't know when she was thinking about him and moreso if he was trying to get with her behind YOUR back. Let her make the same mistake with him as she did with you. The more you leave her in the dust, when her ex gets done doing what he has to do and it doesnt work out then you will be the fall back plan. Dont be that, let her go because she doesnt deserve to have it that easy. No guy gets it that easy.

You dont need this branch swinger, stop being rick rolled and move on.

Tough love is never easy but you didnt learn the first time either.

For next time, when you're sensing it's about to end...

For now, just walk away and forget it. It's done, and it's gonna hurt like hell for a bit, but it'll be fine. She's nothing special, becuse she thought you were nothing special. Rebound man, that's all.


At all costs, save your pride and let her go.

How old are you?

Thanks guys
I'm only 20, i've been in many relationships but none of them have hurt as much as this, we were so close and intimate but yet i could sense something was "off" but couldn't put my finger on it.

I'm the fool for playing re-bound man twice, no matter how many times people say it won't work out it's hard to listen sometimes, my judgment was clouded by my feelings for her.

I know it's not the end of the world and i'm still young but the situation is crap

so, according to what you just said, it really wasn't that close and intimate, now, was it?

When you get that feeling that something is off, that's like your "spidey senses" telling you something is up. Problem is, most guys ignore that gut feeling until it's way too late, because they get blinded by "love" or lust.

Just walk away, man. find a girl who's not on the rebound and ready for everything you can offer her.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

The problem is you. Her leaving you has amplified your underlying insecurities and this has made you depressed. You're not in love with her. If I put a hotter, nicer chick in front of you right now ,who pushed your ego buttons the right way, you would forget all about this dingbat that just dumped you.
It's been discussed constantly, but you need to hear it again : At this point in your life (20), you should be working on yourself. Imagine the man you want to be. Is this chick part of the picture ? Imagine if you somehow "got her back" you could look at her and think "That's my girl ! The one who's into her ex more than me !"
Get some "plates" going and get out of this stupid one chick syndrome...this way, you are not really breaking up, instead you'll just be transitioning from spending more time w/ one chick as opposed to the other.
Let me tell you a story...when I was around your age, I imagined myself living in a certain neighborhood, driving a black sportscar, and having a bunch of girlfriends. Instead, I married a woman who didn't love me, got divorced, and went through some terrible depression. But guess what ? I realized I wasn't depressed over my ex, I was depressed about ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today, over 20 years later, I LIVE IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD, DRIVE A BLACK SPORTSCAR, AND I HAVE A BUNCH OF GIRLFRIENDS
