You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
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.
Okay not be dumb or anything but this chick I have been chatting with his 9HB, but has two older kids. I got first date with her next week. How do I know if this chick would be open in to just FukBud or casual dating, nothing serious. Personally for me I don't want any LTR, just trying to more experience in dating hotter chicks.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
If she has MINOR kids or kids that live with her (regardless of the age), my answer is "NO WAY!"Rollo said:Would any of you guys out here date a woman with kid or multiple kids?
If so, why?
If not, why not?
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.
I have to disagree. Let's get into your point of view:Divorce should be as illegal as murder.
I've heard it as the norm that people who come from divorced parents are horribly damaged. Here's where the debate comes into effect:Divorce damages the children unbelievably. It gives them “problems”, and diminishes their marketability when comes their time to mate.
You married an already damaged woman. It wasn't her upbringing that damaged her, but her terrible choice in her first husband. You, the knight in shining armour, came into the picture to save her and her kids! She took your horse and fvcked off.I married, for the first time in my life to a woman with two great boys.
Good Post RT.Rollo Tomassi said:Proactive cheating is the single Mommy dillema. This form of 'cheating' relies on the woman breeding with a Good Genes male, bearing his children and then abandoning him, or having him abandon her, (again through invented social conventions) in order to find a Good Dad male to provide for her and the children of her Good Genes partner to ensure their security.
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.
Another good point.Vulpine said:I'm only going to add that bad parents are bad parents regardless of whether they are married or divorced. I'm not saying anyone here is guilty of bad parenting, I'm pointing out that you can't blame a kid's behavior on a divorce.
Bad parents are just bad parents. They can be happily married, unhappily married, whatever. When parents let their children run amok, it's not because they had too many meatloafs for dinner or their parents were swingers. Some people just suck at child rearing. Next time you see a kid in a supermarket throwing a temper tantrum in the candy isle, pay attention to what you think. Is it: "I wonder if he/she's married or single." or "Great job, lady/dude. Way to handle that."
Very good point. Another thing that can be thrown into the mix is whether or not the child has personally dealt with their toxic upbringing through therapy or self-improvement. Unfortunately, people who deal with their parents' "mistakes" seem to make up a small percentage of our population.I'm only going to add that bad parents are bad parents regardless of whether they are married or divorced.
For example, I resented my parents for having been divorced for a good long time. It was only when I was old enough to understand the reasons did I drop my resentment. I suppose you could call it a "self-improvement" of sorts - I was turning a negative outlook into a more positive one. My father was a drunk, and therefore, a lousy parent and an extremely bad influence. My mother, for both self-serving reasons and the protection of her kids, removed the negative influence via divorce.Desdinova said:Very good point.

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.

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