NO!!! It never ends. These are STARS in their realm. They will have entitlement. They will be prone to a group think. They will tie you to a type and bias for or against you depending.
"She's Out of Your League"
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.

"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.

So we are talking like newbies in this subject. ( I'm sure that guru and glassguy can nail it ). But when I had these opportunities, and I was I had the 4-C's during that time ( Car, Clothes, Crib, Convo ). I had nice stuff, a nice career and I was on the scene. It was no big deal to have these things. But I could've done better knowing what I know now. I'm not in that realm, today, still working back in after a blow out divorce, but I assume that those types will not consider you without at least the 4-C's and some popularity in some social scene.

I started as an Auxiliary Police officer when I was 30 which is my State is volunteer. Turned it into a career and now I am the real deal. The ironic thing is I was never one of those guys growing up who wanted to be a cop. I didn't become a paid sworn officer until I was 33. I absolutely love it.

Why even entertain an conversation like this? You know he doesn't understand.

Do you dudes still get free donuts?
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

We do, but I don't eat them. I do like bacon jerky tho.

Try a Krispy Kreme, you'll die. I treat myself to one, maybe once a year when I am @ GCS in NYC.
