"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

When a gal says this with a laugh and smile (in a good way), is this a good thing? Curious...@she's made a few comments related to her dad and how we'd hit it off, etc. I have never met him... thoughts?
 

"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.

Yeah same thing happened to my bud and a younger broad who made those kind of comments, in short he banged her no time (she's a cutie too) him well let's just say he's a little out of shape and not the best looking lol.

Yes, that is a good thing.

Much better than, " ...That is just like something my parole officer would say."

Next time a girl says that, put on a sly grin and say "well then honey, call me daddy!"
 

"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.

Well a psychologist wrote a book about Bill Clinton basically fvcking Monica Lewinsky because she was so much like his mother. Which raises the question, is there a male equivalent of this? Where a guy would date women who seem like their female influences while growing up. This is assuming that the electra complex thing is even real in the first place. We need a psychologist in here lol
