"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.

I will give you the basics. I moved away to college. She claims being distant from me makes her feel horrible so we broke up. Well i broke up with her because i thought she would just come back to me. Well then I tried to get back with her and she said not right now. I was reading anti-dumps stuff in the bible and i think the general consensus around here is that she wouldnt have broken up with me if she was still interested.

On to my question. This was a potential mate for me thats why i care so much. Do you think she lost interest or do you think that she is really caring about the distance. As we broke up she kept saying your the one who left... She also was griping about me making sex jokes, but its my personality and she knows it (really well;) ).

I looked back at my old texts with her in my phone and i noticed that i havent really been making more or less of these jokes.... so idk im looking for a more expreinced person to shed some light on wether the problem really was the distance or she got bored. I could see getting bored, but idk this girl seemed really into me
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

No im not stupid. Im just unexperienced... This was my first relationship ever and it lasted 6 months so when it ended it was a big shock. She got pissed at me and I broke up with her in anger and then tried to get back together and she said the distance was too hard. My question is definetly coming from someone who is new to all this so i am trying to make sense of it.

Whatever im giving this too much thought anyway. Its over and i have to move on.

I was with my ex for 13 months

I didn't get over it right away but after a month I found myself the happiest I've ever been.

Go ahead, mull it over, cry, get so sick of thinking about it and you'll be okay.

The 1st is always hardest to get over. We've all been there. Life is all about overcoming hurdles like this. Start focusing on yourself and bettering yourself. You will be fine with time.
 

"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.

Just focus on achieving your personal career goals and you will attract better women along the way. Women that could never NOT want to be with you. I recommend everyone go to college because it rounds you as a person. Even if you own your own business, still get a degree in something because it will connect you to the rest of the world.
