Knowing ur the bad ass man u r....would u marry for cash...I met some girls who would. Are guys any different?
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
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.
Did you get some sort of sweet settlement deal out of it?Bible_Belt said:Would you marry for money?
I did. And I think I am the only divorced guy on here who does not regret getting married.
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.
It was more like a sweet marriage deal. Her parents own a resort hotel in the Caribbean. They paid our rent for years. I qualified for student loans due to being married, at 21 I would otherwise have not. She got a green card and vastly reduced college tuition. And they flew us down to see them at Christmas.zekko said:Did you get some sort of sweet settlement deal out of it?
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.

Lol this. The only men getting screwed over in divorce are the ones foolish enough to provide for a woman.It was more like a sweet marriage deal. Her parents own a resort hotel in the Caribbean.
