"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.

This book looks like total over the top drek full of outlandish bull. And I should have my copy tomorrow. I figured I would give one last try at things before totally giving up hope of finding someone. I am simply Tired of this crap, this seemingly endless loop of failure I have had. I am tired of falling for girls who have no interest or not seeing those who do. Most of all I am tired of just hoping a girl will fall into my lap.

Whether or not I take any of the boon into practice at least I will have something to entertain me for a bit. If nothing else a social experiment.
 

"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.

the game is a good book but don't learn from it. its all outdated. canned material is lame, game now is all about becoming a self actualized, confident man. check out rsdnation.com, i think thats the best game material online.

I forgot to mention I ordered the rules of the game too. I think the biggest hurdle when it comes to this stuff is myself.

And I'll say this (because I think the meme needs to get out there and be repeated), more than ever it is about 'selection' right now. That means letting your lay count take a back seat and only rewarding 'worthy' women with your time and energy (or your cawk!).

It's about personal integrity to an extent, but it's very much about 'correcting' the entitlement attitude and distorted SMV's we're all dealing with out there. It's simple carrot and stick stuff, writ large.

And it does work, you can have an influence. Despite the fact that there are hundreds of other supplicating chumps ready to paw over some used up, charmless Milf, when you say no thanks, not good enough, not for me, that has ripples, that has broader consequences. I've seen it first hand.

Slightly off topic I know, but I'm waving the flag wherever and whenever I can on this one.

Otherwise, Neil Strauss actually does pretty good gonzo journalism, I'd like to see him tackle other sub-cultures - in addition to pua, he's also done survivalists/preppers. I guess the pua stuff pays the bills though.

So I have been reading this thing and can't help that this guy sounds almost like me. The self esteem issues, the over thinking, low voice, etc. In other words, the biggest obstacle, could be ones self.

However, I am unsure if I buy into the stories presented in the book. They still seem a bit outlandish. Things seem counterintuitive to what I think they should be. And perhaps this is my problem.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
