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.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

I never really thought about any sort of list but maybe thats not a bad idea.loveshogun said:My big four for LTR, for example, are:
1) Emotional stability - ability to see life as reality rather than drama, her feelings don't change at the drop of a hat
2) Independence - doesn't need me to do anything that she should do for herself
3) Proximity - before the internet and phone, we never would even think of having a long distance relationship. Just because the situation has changed doesn't mean the human hunting instinct hasn't.
4) Trustworthy - if I need to, I have to be able to trust this person with my life.
If a girl doesn't bring those 4 things, I can't seriously consider an LTR with her.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Exactly. Also, if she mentions an abusive ex or an ex that is still stalking her, I run for the hills.PairPlusRoyalFlush said:1. Girls who have dated bad boys(criminals, drug dealers, losers) in the past

there's alot more but people have covered most of them. these are just two more i wanted to add.

liberal women- not trying to offend any of you liberals on here, but liberal women are the worst! they SAY they want to find a man that can hold a "discussion" but that only means he must agree with all of her views and everything she says. different opinion be dammed! she's right, she will always be right, and everyone that doesn't agree with her or see things her way are "dumb rednecks" or "uneducated". you'll spot these a mile away because they'll come right out and tell you who they are, theyre usually never happy though, they always seemed pissed off about everything.

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
Fair enough. It's best to just avoid those kinds of debates when running game. Sadly, there are some people (on both sides) who insist on bringing those subjects up.handle said:Your description of "liberal women" just sounds like stubborn, brash women who don't know how to have a fun conversation... And who happen to be liberal.
Correct.
I've met plenty of grating conservatives too who don't seem to understand that I'm not interested in talking about where I stand on social issues when we're just grabbing a drink.
Absolutely right, you included all the pointsbigneil said:Women to avoid:

You beat me to it. These women are TOXIC, and begin PREYING on men once they realize their kid needs a REAL MAN for a daddy. Suddenly the games STOP. They are useful, however, as comparisons to single women, just to show that these women are CAPABLE of better behavior, but won't engage in it until life forces them to.Kailex said:Single Mothers.
And by proxy, I'll speak for BigJimbo and just say 99% of American women.![]()
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.
