She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

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.
Day 15? The way you're talking about MB like it's the downfall of mankind, you'd think it was 15 years.Energy25 said:Nice man I am now onto day 15. The benefits are there no doubt. I love not masturbating.
Why? Simply because I said there are numerous benefits to not masturbating? Simply stating a personal fact for myself. Others can try if they want to, but do I really care if you masturbate? No, in fact I'd rather other guys did. Only helps me.Iceberg said:Day 15? The way you're talking about MB like it's the downfall of mankind, you'd think it was 15 years.

I figured since we're just pulling facts out of our ass, we might as well go balls to the wall.
You guys are f**kin weirdos. Masturbation, in normal quantities, will not make you better or worse at life.
Lots of good came out of that thread, man! Decent point about the magic pill, it may be true for some, but the last part is the bottom line... That's it, basically.snowdog said:Glad they got rid of it. It was ridiculous to begin with. Guys who would do crazy BS like holding off for weeks and sh*t... not realizing that they were looking for a magic pill in there.
For those who missed this abortion of a thread, the bottom line was: Jerking off is fine, just don't turn into a chronic porn monkey.

Maybe because it was a dumb post?snowdog said:Hahahaha that's gold.
That energy25 dude actually gave me a negative rep for my first reply.
****ing freak.
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.
Others aren't on the same page? I believe you were a pretty big contributer to the original thread, in which many, many people believed not masturbating to be beneficial. Maybe you have memory problems. Regardless, stop masturbating kids. It's only going to help you.snowdog said:The fact that you clearly can't deal with the fact that others aren't on the same page with you is something you should take a good, hard look at. Seriously. It's probably a part of your problems.
I wasn't a big contributor at all, I made the same point in that thread as I did here; this isn't a cause or solution to your problems. It's the same with everything, it's okay in moderation.Energy25 said:Others aren't on the same page?

You're right, you failed to contribute anything to that thread regardless of the countless posts you made. Pretty sad on your part. For many people, not masturbating has proven to be a very beneficial tool in self-improvement. For you to argue with people's own personal accounts of this is pure stupidity.snowdog said:I wasn't a big contributor at all, I made the same point in that thread as I did here; this isn't a cause or solution to your problems.

Regardless, don't listen to this Energy25 guy, kids. He's weird and will probably try to lure you into his van.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
In my opinion masturbation may be indirectly causing this. I think if you ate well, slept early and enough and did an normal amount of exercise (Not too much or too little) you would be more then fine. Try some of these: a banana, drink orange juice, an apple, a pear, a kiwi, some nuts, goji berry's... I like those, if I was nervous that is what I would take to calm me down.Poonani Maker said:Masturbated 3 times in 3 hours last night...to porn of course
It totally fvcked me for today. I had to meet with a financial adviser, boy could I not think straight..I was fine for talking specifics about my planning, but when we just shot the sh!t talking about non-finance related things, I could not function. My speech was all stilted and cluttered about simple things like guns, survivalism, cycling, my job, my house, vacation plans, the weather. I just could not speak without being RELAXED or anal about everything. He could tell that I was fvcked up too, probably didn't even want to shake my hand. My eyes and face must look all blitzed from the wackathon I had last night. Not cool. Day 1.
Don't know about pvssy prospects as a result of my uncharacteristic binge last night. I'll know by tomorrow. It's sad.
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.
