"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
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.
She told me she's pregnant. I'm ignoring her.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
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.

One of our female sosuavers, who doesn't post much any more, got pregnant multiple times while on the pill. It happens.
But she told this a-hole weeks ago that she thought she was. This shouldn't be a surprise to OP at all. It doesn't sound like she's faking it all to me. Usually women who fake it spring it on you-not tell you beforehand that they're worried.
I guess I don't understand how a man can admittedly say that he ejaculated in her every time and then question if she's genuinely pregnant. That blows my mind. He made his bed so he should lay in it.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
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.

So you're telling me that even though you know someone is lying about being pregnant you would still communicate with them?
She went out the night before in heels and a skirt. Who goes out if they're supposedly scared and freaked out because they're pregnant?

Literally, own up to your sh@t...
"I just moved here from Florida."
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.

Again, you wouldn't think the girl was playing games if she's supposedly freaked out but she went out the night before?

Do you think that becoming pregnant would instantly make her intelligent and responsible?
its funny how your thought process work. theres chance kids not your but you never know, anyway it sounds like two fit each other
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
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.
It’s not even that. Going out could simply mean she’s trying to get her mind off of things. People do it all the time.
But the girl already said she didn't want the baby.
So what else could she want from OP except for his emotional support? OP is the worst.

yea I think if you're upwards of 200 lbs BC isn't as effective
