"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.

Well, the title says everything...
My idol when it comes to being a man is Hulk Hogan, the wrestler. I think he´s confident, doesn´t take **** from anyone, always says exactly what he´s thinking and respects people in order to get respect. He also doesn´t care what people think of him.
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

"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.

Formula 1 driver Mark Webber, he has no fancy ideas about himself and just gets the job done.

Josef Stalin, who racked up 30 million kills. No other man in this world has murdered more people than him.

Also that French chick who was really a guy was pretty manly. Look at her jawline!

Start practicing your agonized screams now, or else you won't hold a candle to your idol when you're burning in Hell too. I can make his out just barely when I put my ear to the ground.
Well I'm an aethiest, so I'm going to hell anyway.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Mark "Chopper" Read.

He loved his beer.
He spoke his mind.
He loved his rugby.

Although he did kill 20 people, luckily only serving jail time for 1 of those murders, but they were all drug dealers. He always said, drug dealers are the scum of the earth.

He's a man's man alright.

"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.

Am I the only one who sees the contradiction in this?

Theodore Roosevelt - combined supreme masculinity with high intellect. Rather than become the effeminate intellectual or the mindless macho jock, he instead exemplified the best attributes of both. That is a real man.

Morality, will-power, courage, leadership, energy, accomplishment, toughness, intellect, passion, decisiveness, vision, and character.

We need the iron qualities that go with true manhood. We need the positive virtues of resolution, of courage, of indomitable will, of power to do without shrinking the rough work that must always be done.

Sylvester Stallone

He was a nobody and went to Hollywood with the Rocky script, getting rejected over and over, but he kept perservering. He overcame a speech impediment, overcame critics who prejudged him as stupid, overcame amazing odds stacked against him, then went on to direct and act in one of the best films ever made - Rocky.

Then on the other hand, he is a guy who built and maintained an amazing physique through sheer dedication and allegedy steroid free. He gained weight for Copland, showing dedication to his acting career, then managed to get back in shape.

He has done some sh1t films, but it's his dedication to his goals that I admire. If you watch the original Rocky, you can see that he based the character heavily on himself.

What I think is funnier, is that most of these men that we idolise are celebrities, not blood & steel heroes, or national leaders.

Where are the Caesars, Napoleons, Barbarossas, Rommels, and Francos?


EDIT: Okay, we got Roosevelt (well he was a leader of a democracy, not a dictator, but nobody's perfect), and William Wallace. I guess its something :p
