"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

She was on the bed with 3 black dudes running a train on her and I sat there watching and asking her not to leave me...
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Sadly I got you all beat by Longshot.

I moved 1300 miles to get back with an ex. And when I got back home I had to find out from her sister that she started dating another guy.

I still wanna puke because of it but I'm better off now than if I would have stayed where I was.

Ill accept my beta of the year award now lol

A girl I was interested in texted me on my birthday saying "happy birthday." I texted her back a long paragraph about how happy it made me feel to wake up to her happy birthday text, how glad I was she was in my life, etc. Then I APOLOGIZED for taking an hour to respond.

This all seemed like normal behavior to me at the time, but now it just makes me cringe

Clinging onto a toxic relationship for 10 months when I should have walked out in the 1st month when she dumped me and chose drugs over me. I thought I could change her. That was the most beta thing I ever did in my life.

Although I did change her a little but now she's even worse than I actually found her at.
 

"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.

When a woman I liked started pulling away, I chased her more suggesting dinner etc. I decided to threaten a break up thinking she would be scared to lose me but she actually agreed that it was a good idea. I poured my heart out and even suggested a meeting to plead my case but thankfully I decided against it when she agreed to meet. Now I know when they pull back, you pull back further and when they become disrespectful you dump immediately.

High School gf, aka love of my life.

Got off the phone with her after one of our long nightly chat sessions. Right afterwards, "our song" comes on the radio, some gay a$$ pop song by a female singer. I call her back immediately and tell her to turn on the radio because our song is on.

"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.

I was in a toxic relationship with my recent ex... at this time I never heard of cluster b or narcassist woman, so didnt have a clue what I was dealing with...

She broke up with me twice, and on both times, I dropped everything, jumped in my car and drove over to her place to convince her otherwise... damn I feel like such a beta phaggot just thinking about it... I once nearly ****ing cried, while telling her, how much she means to me... jeeez...


In the end we broke up, and thanx to this site... I have a completely different mindset now... I went hardcore no contact on her ass... and she spent nearly 6 months, begging me to get back with her...

Asked a live-in girlfriend to slow dance with me, after she had broken up with me a month earlier and I stayed living with her because I thought I could salvage the relationship. It was my last night living together with her and she obliged. We danced for 2 songs.

I was on some serious phaggey time then.

Ironically, a friend introduced me to PUA a week or so before the break up (Thank GOD!) so I was able to pick myself up and dust myself off. That was almost 4 year ago.

That event is what really opened my eyes to the world

It at the time felt like the worst thing that could ever happen to me. Now I think it may have been the best
