I love the idea of a personal ten. Individual attraction definitely matters.
"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
God there are so many ****ing tangents i don't know where to begin...does anyone even know what the MAIN argument is. I'm just going to respond to the things that caught my eye.

1. Those are contradictions. You basically said 'don't think that much', then you said 'read lots of books', which implies a great deal of thinking. Thus, contradiction.
2. Your statement is the only one that doesn't make sense to me. How you formed your opinion that I am somehow naive, or something, I have no clue. Either way, it doesn't really matter.
This. I think what bryce is trying to say is that there's no way you can argue that Rosie is hotter than Kate...regardless of personal views. However, if you're dating Rosie, don't do it just because you're trying to go against standards or prove something to yourself or society about values/whatever etc.. Rather, date her because she truly makes u happy and is your 10 (which i don't see how she could be your perfect 10, but if she TRULY is then good for you).BPH said:Would you rather f*** Rosie O'Donnell or Kate Upton? And if you try to make an argument for Rosie's personality or some other BS it just shows that you're trying to destroy standards to make your personal choices more acceptable as you seek validation.
Dude i don't think anyone disagrees with you on this one. At least i dont...which makes me think this whole argument is a big misconception. On a personal tangent/side note, I don't want a 10 because I want to impress other people (ego), I want a 10 because of me. It's just like how you want a 10 in personality because that's what will make you happy. A true 10 is what will make me happy. In other words, I don't think I can marry a girl if she's not truly my perfect 10 (in looks and personality). **** other people...it's not about them. This is relateable to the fact that I want a lot of money. I don't want it for other people, I want it because it's what's important to me. That's why I'm working my ass off to get there. And that is my personal tangent/side note that explains that we/i don't disagree with your above statement.LearningSlowly said:I'm not arguing ugly girls are better than hot girls. I'm arguing that physical features are not the most important quality.
No ****. If you're not mature enough to realize that we all have different versions of a perfect 10 then idk where you've been...LearningSlowly said:I love the idea of a personal ten. Individual attraction definitely matters.

Alex, then we also differ because I don't want to be rich. Rather than have outward expressions of wealth, I would rather have inward wealth, which is lasting happiness and living in joyful peace. This can happen while in the company of spiritual people even in the lowest poverty.
The ideas of a skinny girl with big boobs being the ideal for beauty are new ones. I can be attracted to other body types. As to whether I would enjoy the sex with your perfect ten more than my current girlfriend, I can't say, but to speculate would make me unhappy, so instead I will remain in the now.

Reading implies learning not thinking. I explained the difference between the two. I don't believe you to be naive, but close minded. I doubt you have approached as many women as I have and you originally agreed tens were harder, a pure misconception. I'm trying to help you out by expanding your reality. Don't take it to your ego, don't over think this.
Are you saying you can't have inward wealth, lasting happiness, and joyful peace, while also being rich?LearningSlowly said:Alex, then we also differ because I don't want to be rich.

@J right.
"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.

Just saying we have different goals.
I think we have the same goals. I just have the additional goal of wealth. Or maybe, wealth is a means to achieve the other goals (the ones you stated above).LearningSlowly said:Just saying we have different goals.
