"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 is SICK, we need to GET ACTIVE!

"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.

That's a lot of money for child support.

I'm convinced many judges and juries get off on committing gross injustices.

Yesterday my 20-y.o. friend was saying to me that his LTR of 1 year and 8 months, who is 25, is giving him a very hard time, yet he loves her and is willing to fix their relationship. He even mentioned marrying her...

You sum what Bonhomme posted with the story I just told and conclude that marriage is just fuggin stupid from the beginning to the end.

I'll not marry or have kids with any gal unless:

1) The "infatuation phase" has long since passed, we consider ourselves best friends, and there's still plenty of lust.

2) I absolutely trust her with my life.

3) There's a pre-nup that covers mental health breakdowns and such.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

most guys wouldn't do this because they love their kids and they wouldn't put them in jeparty, but i would quit my job, sell everything off and go like a bum, if i had to pay that kind of money a wife. I don't care if she has my kids, if they are not with me, they are not my responsability.

This is the exact reason why i have so much trouble with relatioships. I can predict and control where things will go in the short term but in the long term, there's no garuntee that things won't end up similar to this poor chump. *Sigh* even being an advance PUA has it's limits.:(

If that were me, I would have quit my job. Seriously, when it's THAT MUCH, I'm better off living on welfare or with no money that paying that much.

that's ridiculous.

His best option is to do something that gets paid "under the table," or some sort of real estate investing in which he's essentially borrowing money for a living, showing little or no taxable income ... such as buying property way below market and refinancing, pulling out equity to make his money.

I find this story less than credible.

Just ignoring the source for a minute :rolleyes: and looking at the content of the story I find 5 things out of place.
1. Alimony is not permanent. He'll pay that for a few months and be done with it. This article fails to separate the costs of this temporary alimony and child support and instead lumps them together to make the story more sensational. His child support fees could be pennies compared to the alimony.
2. She has no job, yet he has to pay for child care. That's just pure BS. He's adding that to his story to make it sound more incredible.
3. He has a "good relationship with his ex" yet she's screwing him over. Give me a fvcking break. If this article had any credibility, we would see the word "b1tch" more times referring to his ex than we see the word "the." The author who made this story up is downplaying the b1tch ex so that he can highlight his agenda.
4. He made 4k a month yet can't afford a decent lawyer. In the US, and especially California, money can buy you out of prison. Just ask OJ or Michael. Yet this chump is too stupid to buy a good lawyer with the abundance of money he was making, and too stupid to sue his lawyer for misrepresentation.
5. Where's the facts? I see no links to court documents, specific unfair laws on a government website, or even "Robert's" last name. From what I can see there's more evidence to suggest that the webmaster made this story up than it's truth.
 

"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.

1. Alimony is not permanent.
It depends how long you're married. The longer you're married, the more likely you're going to be paying the rest of your life. Especially if the guy is the sole provider.
