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.
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.
DJF or John said:Let's all go to GNC and buy some Creatine pills and spend 8 hours a day in the gym, and we'll all get laid like this Dobe claims he does.
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.
blah, blah, blah..DJF or John said:Dobe of Getting Laid says,
"Heres one of the best tips youll get in this thread. Keep in mind, Im trying to help you by giving you a no bullsh1t assessment of reality so you can make better decisions to improve yourself."
For what? Have you not gotta the point that no one really listens to you?
"SS AND NLP BASED GAME DOES NOT WORK. DO NOT USE IT!"
Yeah here he goes. This is just an opening for someone to start talking about why NLP works, then the Dobe starts talking about Looks Matter again.
Let's all go to GNC and buy some Creatine pills and spend 8 hours a day in the gym, and we'll all get laid like this Dobe claims he does.
You obviously don't go to the gym very often. If you spend anywhere near 8 hours in the gym a day, you're losing WAY more muscle than you're gaining.DJF or John said:Let's all go to GNC and buy some Creatine pills and spend 8 hours a day in the gym, and we'll all get laid like this Dobe claims he does.
you have to forgive DJF, hes a real idiot. All of what you are saying is too much for him to grasp. He may have down syndrome.Call_Me_Daddy said:You obviously don't go to the gym very often. If you spend anywhere near 8 hours in the gym a day, you're losing WAY more muscle than you're gaining.
Even pro bodybuilders don't even spend near half as much time in the gym, and they do it for a living.
BTW, didn't you already get banned 5 or 6 times already for going psycho?

yeah probably, I don't pay much attention to these techniques, I just remember what terms I hear get thrown around.God_of_getting_layed said:um, doesnt ss stand for Speed seduction, you know, Ross Jeffries' crap.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
In this instance I believe the SS reference was toward Speed Seduction.TillTheEndOfTime said:NLP - neurolinguistic programming

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.
