Master Don Juan
why not get off of the consol and in to the real world. You will find out that the real world has a lot higher screen resoloution then your video games 
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.
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.

firstly if thats so much then half of it (yours) is still a lot and 5-6 posts a day is not all that time consuming when you think about it.Originally posted by Interpol

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 know people whos whole life is computer games, some one form school i spoke to his hobby is computer games he says he plays 3-5hours a night on the computer, this post toom me a minute or 2 to write 5-6 posts would mean 10 minutes a day on sosuave, so ok its a bit more then that but its still not all that much. (although i could not tell you how much because i multi task, switch form 1 thing to another, like right now apart from this, msn and looking up things of intrest on the internet such as researching the tsunami i am also fixing my bike.)
well yeah they can, i play on my PS2 from time to time, i just found it horryfying when someone i know siad they spend 5 hours a night on computer games.Originally posted by Interpol

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.
