Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I use Avast. Totally free for individual use, not the resource hog of something like Norton and gets more praises from security geeks than some of the best commercial programs. There's no reason to even think about buying virus software anymore.

AVG is OK for what it does. Get McAfee or Trend micro.
Both McAfee and PC-cillin gobble up too much resources for any usefullness they provide.

Stay away from them.

I use AVG because it will not run consecutively and incessantly in the background.
 

"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.

Simply not true. The McAfee consumer stuff is annoyinly chatty but the Enterprise stuff (get it from CDW) is amazingly good and fairly light FOR WHAT IT DOES. Simple AV scanning isn't enough anymore.

In case you know more than I do, keep in mind I write AV software, and have code shipping from at least 2 different AV vendors as I write this.

What is your personal level of expertise in this domain?

NOD32 or Kaspersky.
AVG for free.

I've tried almost every anti-virus and you better bring so arguments to the table if you don't think NOD32 and Kaspersky are the best anti-viruses - I know my s**t.

Kaspersky isn't very good at securing your system with the AV alone. NOD32 from ESET is the best in the world most likely but they don't have a very strong salea nd support organization around their product for USA customers.

For American consumers Trend Micro and McAfee (Enterprise) are the best bet. For what it's worth my code is only running in ONE of those. The other product I helped write is stronger in Europe.

Realistically the only thing I would STOP using is Norton. If you have that uninstall and get something else.


I've ridden in almost every airliner on the market, I guess next time a carrier needs to buy new planes they should buy what I like. :rolleyes:



EDIT:
Look at the latest CU AntiVirus testing.
