Anyone who has kids (babies or young kids) that old is both an idiot and irresponsible. There's a good chance they'll die before the kid even becomes an adult.Desdinova said:Paul McCartney is.
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.

This isn't something that should EVER be done. If a person is 60 years old and having babies they're irresponsible. Who is going to change the diapers of the toddler if the parent develops alzheimer's and needs someone to change THEIR diapers?Egoist said:don't you always complain when people generalize?

The average life expectancy is from 67 to 72 years old...a little longer for women than men. Children should NOT be brought into the world by a parent who is either going to die or be physically or mentally unable to care for those children through 4 years of college. Men who put off having children (if they want kids) until around 50 or older are morons who are putting their offspring at a very high risk of ending up fatherless before they even finish highschool, let alone college.
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.
She'll still be a single mother and the poor kid will grow up without a father.Egoist said:didn't clint eastwood just have one at 70+ with his hottie thirtysomething wife?
nothing wrong with that
better that than a struggling single mom.
No amount of money can "buy" away what the death of a parent does to a young child.Vulpine said:Could you imagine:
*Phone ringing*
Wyldfire: "Hello?"
Clint Eastwood: "Is this Wyldfire?"
Wyldfire: "Yes, it is."
Clint Eastwood: "Would it be okay with you if I had a child with my wife?"
Wyldfire: "Not unless you want to lose my respect."
Clint Eastwood: "Oh, heaven forbid! What was I thinking?! Okay, I won't spread my seed wherever I please just because I am an Alpha Male who will make a kid rich enough to BUY a father when I pass away. Thanks for straightening me out."
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Yes, sadly. This is only natural: all through history those women who looked good (who show signs of fertility and health, that is, such as smooth unblemished skin) would marry early on, then have children and pass on their genes - the genes of women who look fertile and healthy in their teens and twenties. Since noone had kids in their thirties (when most people started dying, in the Stone Age), there would be no natural selection in that age, with only the women who still look good in their thirties passing on their genes.wheelin&dealin said:The truth is that most women age like sh*t! They have no respect for their body and they try to look younger by buying a miracle skin cream rather than working out and eating an optimal diet. For 90% of women it's pretty much down hill after their 25th birthday.

Wyldfire said:Facts:
The average age of menopause is 51.
Women are still able to have children as long as they have eggs and menstruate.
Many women over 30 look as good as, if not better than their younger counterparts
Those are the facts. Anyone who claims otherwise is blowing hot air out their arses.
No, I'm not stating these facts because I am bothered by men my age or older dating younger women. In fact, I couldn't care less what men my age and older do because I don't find those men attractive. As one of those older women who look great...I don't have to "settle" for guys my own age...I get the younger ones.![]()
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Freewheelin Frank said:I find older women sexier myself. Its something about their demeanor that makes them attractive to me. How they think and how they carry themselves.
Plus older ladies are much better geared toward my interests and temperment, for the most part. For example I'd have a much easier time finding a 40 year old woman who likes to discuss politics and current events than a 20 year old.
I do, and I'm not ashamed to say it.Latinoman said:But finding a 40 year old woman sexier (when you are 18?)???
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
