"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Hey guys I'm just wondering if I can get some advice here. Here's the story: I've been with this girl for four months and it has been great. She's pretty much let me do my own thing, and I've let her do hers and we just go very well together. We enjoy being together, and I can't think of a better relationship I've been in. Anyways I'm 23 and just graduated from college and so did she. Her family lives far away, and we're about to make a big decision within the next week about where our relationship can go from here. I definitely don't want to do the long distance thing, but we're both looking at different career moves which has a high possibility of separating us. Lately I've tried not to think about it too much, but it does have me worried to a degree. I know I can be single and enjoy it again, but I don't wanna throw away a relationship that has been so awesome.

What should I do?

thanks
 

"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.

Hate to break it to you, but that sounds like something that random internet message boards can't decide for you. Choosing career over relationship (or vice versa) is often a tough decision, and sounds like you should talk to the girl and see what she says.

Trust me this isn't my first or only option. I'm preparing for the worst and hoping for the best, but it is a scary position to be in. A little extra advice never hurt...

Even though you're 23 and done school you are still very young and should put your own life ahead of a woman. Looking back, I would have regretted it very much had I settled with my gf when I was your age. Just something to think about.
