"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

A very common situation I found on a relationship site.

I'm M35 and my wife is F31, and we've been having some issues lately. We have two kids, and I work long hours, usually 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Friday. We usually spend Saturday afternoons together as a family, and I try to make sure we have at least one date night a month, just the two of us. On Sundays I manage a golf team, so I'm out from about 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. For the past year, my wife has been complaining (mostly to her female friends) that I never make plans, that everything is on her, and that I just go along with things without really caring. She makes it sound like I'm disengaged. Also, she is upset at me. Sometimes I get a Sunday off and I take her with me when I can, but it still feels like she doesn't believe I'm putting in effort. Now she's planning a weekend trip for us. I told her I don't think we really need another trip since we went on one six months ago. She still wants to go, and she's planning to take her mother and the kids. I told her she can go if she wants, but I also said again that I don't think this trip is necessary. I'm actually doing good as a man, but I don't know why her behavior is something like this

He is very much a provider, she has his lifestyle provided, but at the same time she disdains his commitment.

He is doing well, he is a busy man, but in my opinion he spends too little time with his family.

"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.

The most consistent complaint I've gotten from women is that I work too much. They women I've been with are constantly trying to get me to Call Out of work. So. This guy works way more than I do. And then add his Sunday golf. He is heading for disaster. None of the women I've been with would tolerate a Saturday afternoon a week, one date night a month.

44 or so hours/week work. But. I was/am able to see them after work and on weekends most of the time. I certainly can understand their point. But. I have responsibility to work and they rely on me.

Wonder if the ol'ball'n'chain sees him EXCLUSIVELY as such, and as a lover secondairly, if at all. If so, and that's been her mindset from the get-go, he may be in a bind that's irreparable
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Unless a dude is planning to follow Brian Walshe's example https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/18/us/brian-walshe-murder-charge-arraignment-ana-walshe-wednesday , the missus is going to require wining and dining every now and then. Don't get hitched, if you're opposed to such activity, hoss:

THAT makes less sense than becoming a junior high guidance counselor, DESPITE possessing an intense aversion to cutting pudgy Gundam Wing aficiandos down from the boy's room ceiling, after these fellas have spent one too many nights penning fanfiction, instead of getting inside the prom queen's panties
