"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Anyone believe in the saying "Women fall in love with someone like their dad?"
 

"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.

Its not because they have 'daddy issues'

Its because women associate power and dominance with their dads, a leader figure. Creates the same feelings and all that.

It re-creates the feelings and she looks up to him like she did her dad.

Women want to be led, its an innocent desire.

Dont say it like it's a bad thing, i think it's cute.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

It can be a bad thing. Like for example women that cry about getting burned by men and talk all the time about wanting a good man, yet a month later will go and date another a**hole who is just like every other guy they dated.

There's a huge section of women that just need drama in their lives it seems. Frankly I don't think there are a lot of normal women around anymore. They either look for a man that is like their dad, or they date a**holes. And you know what the really bad thing is? the next generation of females coming up are going to be even worse!

I just don't look to spend much time with a woman anymore (unless i'm totally attracted to her). I go out with her enough to get action and i'm off to the next one. These women are toxic.

YEP!

Some women are so fukwits that they can´t control themselves and expect someone who will (control them, a kind of father). That´s why they sh!t test the hell out of you. In the end you feel drained because you have to take care of two people (you and her). Picture a "potent" car with horrible break system, imagine the struggle to drive such car, it will demand a lot of maneuvering from the driver. The likelihood of crashing it is pretty high.

That´s the prob with girls with daddy issues. It´s like, another analogy, having a car that needs tons of gasoline just to cross the street (no wonder they´re called High Maintenance girls).

Sometimes that's true. Sometimes not. Depends on her dad. If he was a strong good upstanding guy. Probably. If he touched her naughty places at night, probably not so much. If he beat the **** out her mom, well...who knows? What if he was never there? Maybe she likes distant dudes or becomes clingy. It's a minefield and probably should not be totally count on for good results.

Studies have shown that people (men and women) will tolerate shortcomings in their partners that are the same as their parents. For example, chicks who had bald fathers will accept a bald guy easier, and guys with alcoholic mothers will tolerate an alcoholic girlfreind a lot more, etc. For the most part anyway. Obviously some people will not tolerate an alcoholic partner because they have seen the damage done in their own families by their parents, but for the most part, people are more accepting of the shortcomings of their parents in their respective partners.

Whether or not this has anything to do with 'love' is a different situation.
