"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

What's your record for dating girls with divorced parents?

Land of slow.
Never really payed attention to a girls parental situation. Just finished reflecting and so far of the last 12 girls I dated 10 of them were product of divorced parents. And the only two girls that lead to meaningful relationships, were a product of a household that stuck together. Any of you DJ's have the same results?

Sure they seem fine at first. But once you get in a little deeper you see obvious red flags. Flake like behavior, inconsistencies with what they say, took great risks on past relationships. Would any of you even bother to try and fix a girls life who didn't have both parents? or Just move on.
 

"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.

Excellent post, Vantagepoint, and I am suprised that no one else has yet commented. But saying that 94.8 per cent of guys on here are trying to grub a way out of talking to women, rather than third or fourth base etiquette.

EVERY fooked up situ that ive been in, I put down to divorced parents, and the trauma that comes from that afterwards to the young child.

It would be too long winded and boring to talk about them all, but basically the old daddy issues, not trusting men, independent woman, men are alll b'stards viewpoint id prevalent in women like this.

STEER CLEAR BUDDY!!!!!

Yeah, that's about my experience too. Add in the illegal aliens who'd do anything to hook up with a white guy, and the easy lays are pretty much damaged merchandise.

Both girls I dated had divorced parents. I'm trying to change that in my future but easier said than done nowadays. I can't stand being compared to some stepfather or deadbeat. As soon as I discover any daddy issues, it's not a matter of how fast I can run, but how far I run.

I'm still looking
Honestly, most guys here will end up dating a girl that comes from a divorced family. However, I know fvck-ups that came from divorced and non-divorced parents. I wouldn't rule a girl out for it, but it is something to be wary of and may explain some behavior.

My question comes in if you met the PERFECT girl BUT she comes from a divorced family, for example, where the father cheated on mom and she doesn't respect the father anymore. What do you do? Cooks, cleans, fvcks, submissive, but bad family history. Are you going to rule her out when it was really beyond her control?
 

"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.

I love women who come from divorced families. And I especially love women who for whatever reason hate their dads. Those are the easiest for me to game and keep, on my terms. Of course most women consider me to be kind of a d*ck, so perhaps I remind them of their dads.
