"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.

What is your opinion on this philosophy? It seems like a dangerous philosophy to have but I find myself agreeing with it.
 

"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.

Can be jolly good fun if not taken seriously.

Nihilism not only dismisses received moral values, but rejects 'morality' outright, viewing it as baseless.


I don't understand the complete rejection of morality. Surely, anyone can think of someone or something immoral: Hitler, Osama, etc.

If you were the victim of a crime, you would feel wronged, but nihilism says that there is no right or wrong, so a nihilist can't ever complain about how other people treat him?
 

"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.

Exactly, that's why nihilist are usually angst-ridden people with too much time on their hands.

There's no problem with recognizing the existence of morality. Even a child can do it. The only important thing to remember is that no religion or God has the market cornered on morality, despite what they will tell you. A Christian will use his God (and Bible) as the benchmark for morality. A Muslim will claim Allah is the benchmark. And so on, and so forth. Different societies around the world also have their various ideas.

It really comes down to actions that cause harm to living things. If an action is harmful to life or something living, then that action is potentially amoral. Then it can get complicated when one action can have both harmful and beneficial consequences (such as war).

I don't know about nihilism on a social scale, but as a personal scale I like it. Destruction of the former self to create something better. Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes.

If you're into big reads try Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra.
 

“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.
