"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

This applies to any guy who is in a relationship with a girl, whether it be married, just an LTR, or an engagement.

The only real sign you need to see that you're in a good, if not great relationship, is the following:

You don't even have any thoughts about asking anyone for any kind of ADVICE on your relationship

If the bold above is not true for you, then you are not ready for a relationship, and should only be using women for sex at this time - otherwise you will be sucked into disaster, and that is my 100% personal guarantee.
 

"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 agree with this, to a point. There can be gray areas and they may be entirely irrelevant to the relationship, sometimes it helps to have an outsider look at a scenario unbiasedly and help put it into perspective.

Case in point - I was in a relationship when I was in high school and my girlfriend had more sexual partners than me. She had been with three guys, all long term boyfriends, including me. She was my first. Looking back now its funny how I thought that being with three guys was a huge, disgusting number, but that was just because I was inexperienced and insecure. The relationship itself was great, she was great. If I hadnt of asked for advice from a few close friends and had them put it into perspective, I don't know what would've happened. My jealousy/insecurity might have ruined one of my best relationships.

But see, that is the whole point my friend.

You were in high school, and inexperienced - you had no business being in a relationship, and because you had to ask your friends for advice, that was proof that you weren't experienced enough and ready to handle an actual relationship.

A man needs to be strong and confident in what he is doing before he ever, EVER commits to any one girl.

Your case was a dime a dozen - there is no boy in high school who should EVER commit to any girl, it's just insane ignorance

I get what you're saying, however, how would a man get the experience needed to find and handle an actual relationship if he hadn't been through a
few imperfect ones? Managing and being comfortable in a relationship is a lot different than laying random girls and having the occasional fling.

Preaching to the choir here!

Date many different girls, and never take them seriously until you know how to handle girls to near-perfection.

After dating so many different girls, you will feel confident enough to be the MAN and the POWER in the relationship, and you will have the confidence to make sure that no b1tch ever gets out of line

(I am speaking purely from experience).

By the way, when I say "date" many different girls, what I mean by that is, tell them what they wanna hear, but never truly commit to them IN YOUR EYES..........yes, you have to be a baaaad immoral "player", but the experience you get out of it will serve you GREATLY when you are finally ready to be in a relationship with a woman of your choosing.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Ahh, I get exactly what you mean now. I tried to do that a few times, always ended up succumbing and getting feelings for them. Hell, I even started getting feelings for this girl I was fvcking behind her boyfriends back for four months. She wanted to get in a relationship with me, logic dictated it was an awful idea, but I couldn't help but start to have feelings for her. I broke it off before they could really develop, thankfully, but how do you do it? How can you "go through the motions" with a girl, tell them what they want to hear while knowing that you're lying to their face, and prevent yourself from returning those feelings. By nature I'm one of those romantic guys, so its probably impossible for me, I'm just more curious on how you managed to do it or rather, didn't do.

We can lie like that because we realize the true nature of things: it is all a game. they might find it serious, but it isn't given how transient their actual emotions are. women don't fall in love like men.

a lack of drama.
But that's actually pretty close to what you wrote. If you're not having any drama, you won't be needing to seek any advice.

TRUST, SATISFACTION and SELF-VALUATION are what determines the above!

You can still have feelings, and return feelings, and actually FEEL something for the girl........but you always have to keep in mind that the relationship will end 100% guaranteed. At the end, you will end up a little bit hurt, but not as hurt as you would have been if you were a CHUMP who fully bought into the commitment and thought that THIS GIRL IS THE ONE.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Well, there can be good drama, and bad drama, right?

Good drama = you have amazing sex, you go on beautiful vacations, you have fun going to movies and shyt, ect ect......these things result in emotions stirred up, but these are "good drama" emotions, as you are experiencing them and feeling very positive about your woman.

Bad drama - jealousy, making a big deal out of the small stuff, nagging, controllingness, "PMS'ing", ect ect......if you are in a relationship, YOU as the man have NO RIGHT to put up with anything negative like that.......if you put up with it, then you are not a man, you are just a socially conditioned little puss1fied piece of sh1t (just trying to put it nicely)
