"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Its because Xbox 360 has a big lead in the gaming wars right now, cuz thier release is like next week, thats why theyre gonna do well. Im not even sure if the Ps3 or the Revolution have a release date yet but theyre coming out a few months later then the 360. But I hope PS 3 or Revolution hit 1st or 2nd, I never liked the Xbox.
 

"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.

"Have you heard of Xenogears, M.F.? I would arguably say that I will never play a better RPG in my life. To this day, if anybody mentions a good RPG, I'll always recommend this one in return. It's for the PS1 (made by Squaresoft-"Enix") and it's real storyline driven. "

I have, but I have not gotten around to purchasing it yet. Right now my copy of Fire Emblem is floating around my truck somewhere, but I'm going to find and beat it one of these days.

As a side note, if you own Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, beat it before you play Fire Emblem. FE completely ruined FFTA for me due to the vast difficulty level difference, and now FFTA just seems stupidly easy. Alternatively, if you have trouble with strategy RPGs and FFTA seemed tough, FE will make you want to kill yourself.

In the console wars that's not always a good thing.

Sega CD v.s. Playstation - Sega CD comes out first. It's a complete failure.

N64 v.s. Dreamcast v.s. Playstation 2 - Dreamcast comes out first. The company folds and limits itself to only making video games.

Gamecube v.s. XBox - Gamecube comes out first. Fails.

True. Though with the Christmas rush, it'll be interesting to see how big of a lead they get and if they attract more people, or if people return the XBox for a different system.

Sony has earned my eternal contempt for their whole root kit fiasco, so I'll pass on the PS3.
 

"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.

Actually, GC came out 3 days after the Xbox.
