Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

It's so unfair. I am always grounded. It's like my mom goes out LOOKING for reasons. She loves to start fights with me, and I hate it. So because of it I often get depressed. Home life has never really been good. I can do a good job of ignoring it. But once I come home it changes. GETTING OUT has always been my escape. Lately, I had been sneaking out. Just to get away, but she has caught on and now I can't really go any where. It's depressing.

I can never go to partys anymore either, she always thinks I'm going to get high or drink. She found out about one party and thinks that is what's going to happen everytime. But yet, all my friends parents let them party and drink.. it just sucks. How the **** am I suppoused to meet girls now. I'm getting bored with the girls at school.

Even if I wait it out.. and "be good" (which is ****ing impossible, she will just nag me 24/7 until i explode, then add +1 month to groundation.. she is satan) I'm already grounded until the end of this year.. 4 months.. I ****ing hate life right now. I wish I had a different family. This ****ing sucks.
 

"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.

Yeah, I try.. but it just seems like a lost cause. Sometimes it works, but it never really lasts for long.

I have a short temper.
My mom has a short temper.

It's not really a good mix.

You could either get stronger bond with you're mother or just block her out. When I mean block her out don't talk to her if you don't need too, just do what you do and do you're own thing, if she asks or needs you to do something just unexpressively do it and go on with what ever it is you're doing.

Just like when your gaming girls you don't need to acknowledge the stuff they say could block everything out of your life if you choose to. I used to be similar to you (minus the grounded part) and I just started doing my own thing and having my fun whenever I get out the house, when I was in the house I barely said anything to my parents I'd just do whatever I wanted to do, but about a year ago instead of doing that I just ended up bonding with them more and joking around (I guess because of the traits I've picked up from learning all this)

What the hell did you do to get grounded for 4 months?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I love it. I get arrested and don't get grounded. I get "grounded" and don't get grounded. My mom gave up on "grounding" me, seeing as how I do as I please anyways.

... moms... she pushin you becouse your not thankfull enough.. she works, takes care of your sh1t! BUt she is your mom, and what you should do is take care of the house, and help her out a bit. Also talking helps, about women, life, friends, school. She will eventually understand you, your life, for some parents its harder, becouse they never had such a life. Just help her out, treat her like your mom, and share life, hopefully this helps :p

See if you she is willing to unground you in return for good behaviour - be reasonable and tell her socialising is normal for someone your age and lack of it is causing you to feel depressed. If necessary say you are going to tell your doctor about it.

If she is being totally unreasonable just ignore her, go out and see what happens. It is also normal and healthy for you to rebel against your parents at your age.
 

"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.

dude.. if ur mom is seriosly liek that i would really punch her in the face (if she really acted liek that grounding u non-stop with a bs reason..) but you can jsut ignore her. when she grounds you what does she take away? imo jsut go to the party who cares if u get in trouble what is she gonna do about it ground you again? take away what? lock your door dont talk to her and also wat about yoru dad? imo its war if shes does that. again idk how your mom acts but if shes grounding you just because she hates you then i would do that.
