"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

So who here can't fall asleep without having some sort of noise in the background (tv, radio, fan/a.c.)??
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

*Raises hand*

I typically leave my tv, fan or both on in order to get to sleep.

The fan serves the duel purpose of white noise and to not wake up hot or sweating.

Good for comfort all around basically.

I try not to sleep with my fan on. Fans, Airconditioners, running cars, the sound of wheels on the road while in a car, air planes, buzzing lights in drunk tanks etc etc. These things put me in to a virtual coma and I have EXTREME difficulty waking up. I literally have to force myself up for work if I leave my ceiling fan on. On my days off I definatly leave it on medium though! That kind of sleep is like drugs!

If I don't have my fan on mosquitoes will eat me alive.
 

"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.

When I'm ready to crash, I'll sleep over anything from dead silence to world War III... but the noise most likely to keep me awake is a ticking clock with hardly any sound around it: I'm accustomed to clocks that make light grinding noises.

My girlfrind has that problem, too. It will be in the dead of winter, blowing snow and ice and **** like crazy outside and she always has to leave the fan running at the foot of the bed all nite long so that she can sleep. The only problem is that it freezes the **** out of my feet, so I'm always having to get up and turn the damn thing off... then she wakes up and turns it back on again!:crazy:

I personally havn't ever had much of a problem falling asleep... :yawn:

I like falling to sleep to the sound of a ticking time bomb!! So I made a alarm clock contraption whereby It constantly ticks like a bomb and then when the alarm goes off - the sound of a bomb goes off!! Kaboom!!!!!

As you can imagine - I wake up with a bang and quite frantic, and I am too alarmed to hit the "snooze" button! As an "alarm" clock, it gets the job done and fulfills its' intended purpose!!

I've slept through alarm clocks. Really.

And sometimes woke up "recalling a dream" in which I turned off an alarm clock.

I should start marketing and selling my "Kaboom" alarm clock! If you had the Kaboom alarm, you'll be looking for your gun instead of trying to hit the snooze button!

I used to have dreams that an alarm was going off in my dream so I thought it was part of my dream and not the real world!, so I never woke up! This is why I invented the ticking time bomb alarm clock!! Did I tell you it makes a "Kaboom" bomb alarm sound? You will be too scared to go back to sleep!!
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

"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.

I have the sound of the waves and birds chirping playing on my stereo. It helps me to sleep and at exactly 07h30, the sound of elephants stomping and running wild will wake me up. I need new sounds to wake me up.
