In your own opinion, what percentage of women that you personally know are crazy?
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.
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.
fvck yeah that are. lol Sh|t I thought I was one of the more jaded guys on SS and I voted the 81-90%. Gave em a little credit. I counted my non-crazy mother as 50 women.. jk lol Maybe I'm not the most jaded after all. Looking forward to seeing these results.SamTheHobit said:B1tches be crazy!!
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
GS750 said:I think about 40% are just too crazy to deal with. By crazy I mean Bipolar, BPD, clinically depressed, narcissistic, hardcore AW, major issues, etc. The rest are just kind of crazy, but manageable.
Okay Doctor. What's your opinion on the matter? Please share.narcissist said:As a psychology specialist I can tell you right now that your pevelance rates are way off. Profusely exaggerated.
WTF?narcissist said:As a homosexual psychology specialist I can tell you right now that your pevelance homosexual rates are way off. Profusely exaggerated. I'm actually gay.
WTFGS750 said:Okay Doctor I'm a homosexual too. What's your opinion on the homosexual matter? Please share.
WTF is wrong with you?logicallefty said:In your own opinion, what percentage of women that you personally know are crazy? I'm a lefty who voted for Obama and I'm actually a gay homosexual.
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.
I mean no disrespect. But im sure you came to that percentage by means of anecdotal evidence (personal experience).GS750 said:Okay Doctor. What's your opinion on the matter? Please share.
Nah, none taken. It was an exaggeration, I have no idea how many of them are legitimately nuts. Your guess is as good as mine.narcissist said:I mean no disrespect. But im sure you came to that percentage by means of anecdotal evidence (personal experience).
If you use statistically valid sample studies you find that prevelance of those mental disorders for women are way less than you speculated.
It's not really my opinion, it's merely subscribing to scientific rigour. I go where the evidence lies.
But yeah no disrespect bro! Not trying to slight you in any way, I just think it's a huge issue when people frivolously ascribe mental disorders to a large group of people. It's spreading misinformation about a topic that is already misunderstood and stigmatized. When people generalize statistics of mental disorders to one gender without really doing research, it affects the societal zeitgeist or overall perception of abnormal psychology.
Ps. Disregard the irony of my username. I have actually been diagnosed in the past with npd by a practicing psychiatrist. I realize I am glamorizing the disorder with my username, but i realize it's no laughing matter. It affects many people in a negative way, myself included. And if I could change my username i would
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Bro, I've met enough crazy b!tches for the both of us, and then some..Eph said:100% of women are crazy, it's just a matter of finding the ones you can deal with. Also by crazy, I don't mean seriously, mentally fvcked up. So, if that's the kind of crazy we're talking, I'm lucky enough to not have met (or at least notice) any batsh!t crazy b!tches.
