"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.

...but of course I never listened until now.

1) "Boyfriends mean nothing". By this she meant that even if a girl has a boyfriend that doesn't mean you should stay away. She said that most girls are dating a given guy just waiting for a better one to show up.

2) "Just get a girlfriend... ANY girlfriend". She could tell that I was lousy with girls from a young age... and with this meant that I should just get out there and date SOMEONE. I never really understood why... but now I know that it gets you experience and confidence, and to be seen with girls is social proof. Even not-too-attractive girls, I think.

Good stuff, I think.
 

"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.

your mom sounds straight.
My mom didnt give advice because my older borther isn't too girl-savvy. her advice to me is; dont use girls, dont bother with girls who flake, dont bother with clingy girls, and do your own thing and enjoy highschool.
moms are kinda usefully. My dad on the other hand has never given me girl advice at all. Except to not as 2 girls to homecoming before the first gives you an answer...he got 2 dates to homecoming, and then he had none lol

problem with advice #2 is the collateral damage.

we can all imagine being the victim of this by someone "hotter than us". not fun right?

and yet, it DOES seem that the way this is supposed to work, we have to exploit each other in order to get ahead.

this may be the way of the world but i'm still not comfortable with it.
------------------------------------------------------------------

must the world be this cruel? after thinking about things a bit, it seems like:

1. bullies and people who mock and ridicule - all the cruel kids in the school yard are doing a service - they TORMENT those who are not sexually viable. if the guys is an unmasculine nerd, if the girl is piece of lard.

they are made to feel bad and awful about themselves. bullies are almost evolution's agents!

2. we plow through the field fvcking and using each other. we inflict pain heedlessly because this pain will motivate the victims to become better.

is the way of the world really so goddamn cold?

perhaps it really is.
