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.

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.
No, you're following the herd. Don't mistake this for what it truly is.fuzzx said:I quite enjoy playing playstation, living with termites and ****ing the ****e outta my rich mexicana (I`m evidence supporting John`s theory btw)![]()
Im also not a provider though, so I figure I must have the genes she wants.

Did you even read Rollo's post? Why don't you point out where in the "84 pages" that Rollo is repeating. What Rollo is saying is revolutionary. Everyone else can see it, why can't you?Deus ex Pianoforte said:Why? I don't see anything that hasn't been said in the 84 page looks-matter thread over in the Archives. That's why looks threads are banned.
Need a tissue?Deus ex Pianoforte said:Great example btw, Rollo. Nothing like breaking your own rules to encourage members to stay in line.
Ahh, the magnificent sound of a defeated man. We finally broke him fellas, and we owe it to Rollo, who put up a post that Deus failed to effectively refute. Not even ONE point. Perfect.Deus ex Pianoforte said:P.S. For the record, without being too wordy about it...you're wrong. Looks don't matter. Now will a rule-abiding moderator please erase this piece of ѕhit thread?
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
You are projecting your own needs and desires as a man. To you, and me, and most of the other guys on this board, if she's ATTRACTIVE, and you get along with her, and she's reasonably feminine (this is the main problem with women these days), that's all you need to be attracted to a woman, cause your investment can end with you dropping your load and moving on to the next sperm receptacle. Women are stuck with the consequences of you dropping that load, should you choose not to support your offspring.swifTy said:now as for the provisioing i dont think its necesssary at all!!! SURE money makes it easier and you must have some to get by in life but you dont need mass wealth. you can live very simply and still be very happy. Her liking you will trump the money issue everytime. every damm time.
When i think about the girls i like or heck even the guys i like i dont give a crap about any tangible they have, their clothes, their cars, their money, or any of that bullsh!t i care about them. the person that they are.

Legal/Illegal, these terms don't apply as laws change daily and with whomever is in office at any particular point in time so this argument really doesn't wash clean. I will not go into a political debate suffice it to say that not everything you see is reality. It's the interpretation of what you process which becomes your belief system.Deus ex Pianoforte said:This reminds me of when San Francisco started handing out gay marriage licenses even though it was illegal to do so. When you have the authority figures blatantly disregarding the rule of law, you have anarchy.

This is not a flame, but for the life of me I can't figure out why some people are so fixated on ruling out certain things women look for in a mate, to the point where they don't even make an attempt to read the thread to see what it's all about.Deus ex Pianoforte said:You're giving him too much credit, in my opinion. Everything that is you is what matters, yes. But why didn't he write that then? Exactly. He singled out LOOKS. He thinks looks matter, and decided to write about it despite the fact that there are thousands of these threads out there and that they are banned.
Rollo does a lot of things according to his own personal agenda, and not sosuave's guidelines. And yes, it is not a good thing at all.Deus ex Pianoforte said:Regardless Karma, the fact is that you have a MODERATOR ignoring the rules on his own forum. Do you not see the danger in this?
iqqi said:This is such false propaganda.
I am glad some of you can see through this.
However, very well written piece.
And Swifty, what you described "your face, your smile, your body, your walk, your smell, the words you use, your tone, the way you talk, the way you interact with people, your eyes, your expressions, your jokes, your humour."
Is NOT looks.
That is a sum of qualities, and you are completely correct, THAT is what matters. Not genes. LOL!
Life experience is what shapes a man and who he is, and who a man is, THAT is what matters to the ladies.
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.
WHOA! You're as wrong as the day is long. I've never seen Rollo arbitrarily close a thread because of any personal agenda or launch an attack becuase of a disagreement. Quite the contrary, here is a man who will gladly listen to your argument and then discuss all of the different possibilities then make a rational decision based on that conversation and his own life experiences. You're jumping on the bandwagon while it's warm but it's a rapidly sinking ship dude.iqqi said:Rollo does a lot of things according to his own personal agenda, and not sosuave's guidelines.

A mod should be objective, and Rollo is not.
I hope Allen takes notice of some of the red flags I have noticed.
Karma, you are bias, considering that you are friends with Rollo. He closed threads that he doesn't personally like - I've seen it! Giovanni Casanova did the same thing, in the past!KarmaSutra said:WHOA! You're as wrong as the day is long.

Good post as usual Rollo, keep it up. Dont mind this wanker either, I think he was just after one of the high caliber posts to grandstand.Rollo Tomassi said:This is why women always have the "prerogative to change her mind" so the most fickle of behaviors become socially excusable, while men's behavior is constrained to a higher standard to "do the right thing" by providing women with satisfaction of their security need. She is excused for her methodology while he is shamed for his own. This is why guys who are 'Players', and fathers who abandon mothers and children to pursue their innate reproduction method are infamous villains, and fathers who selflessly sacrifice themselves financially, emotionally and life decision-wise, are considered heroes for complying with women's genetic imperatives
Yes, this is the truth.Last Man Standing said:Karma, you are bias, considering that you are friends with Rollo. He closed threads that he doesn't personally like - I've seen it! Giovanni Casanova did the same thing, in the past!
Uh....I consider Rollo a friend as well. Met up with him on more than one occasion. He closed my thread earlier today. It had deteriorated due to some posters taking issue with something that wasn't there, so I knew it was coming and I don't blame him.Last Man Standing said:Karma, you are bias, considering that you are friends with Rollo.

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.
