"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.

A friend of mine shown me this a few days ago:

http://www.deathclock.com/

Its not at all reliable, but the thing that stood out is that it asks what type of person you are; 'normal', 'sadistic', 'pedimistic', or 'optimistic'. It seems most of us here have a very positive, laid back view of life, so they would be classed as optimistic. The calculator shows that people who are optimistic, live the longest. Its made me curious to see if we're going to live longer than the average person. I know it sounds ridiculous...
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

but do they live hte longest because they are optimistic, or is it rather that whatever it is about them that makes them live the longest also makes them optimistic?

personally my view is that its not how long you live, its how much you live.

when your time is up, its up. regardless of what some program on the internet tells you.

I thought it was a "optimistic" evaluation rather than whetever we are optimistic. Anyway, see on the other side after 2055 Septemper 14.

Mmm, they say that the first person to live to be 1000 has already been born.
Some leading experts say we are on the verge of being able to stop and even reverse aging.

Give me your sources.

Now for my opinion based on facts:

Telomeres are the ends of chromosomes that shorten as we age, and once they disappear, you are dead since your cells fail to divide.

Trouble is, infinite telomeres results in unrestricted growth. Sounds good? Not really, because that's cancer. It's a delicate balance and we're no where NEAR getting rid of aging. Stem cells hold the best potential.
 

"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.

"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.

I wasn't saying it as fact. I was just saying.

Anyway, ScienceNation on NPR did a show on it.

But like I said, there are groups of scientists that are saying we are on the verge.
I froget their method but I don't beleive it involved stem cells.

But I don't have an opinion on it. I'm not a genetic engineer.

I just calculated my death clock, and if you enter the same information twice different results pop up. Not very reliable to say the least....
