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.
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.
Some, for sure!!!
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.
Well this played out well, was fun reading all of the old comments. Congrats to all you guys who stayed disciplined and kept the course. I think we are going to be rewarded very well and this is just the beginning. I strongly believe 2021 is going to absolutely melt faces. Wish you all luck.
If things play out how I think they will this next 6-12 months that will be me
Good call, don't let your ego get in the way of your finances.
I met a lot of genuinely stupid people who made a lot of money in various financial markets, usually through dumb luck. They then declared themselves geniuses and usually lost everything.
Thanks, I have enjoyed my past 20yrs though achieving financial success in a lot of arenas. Enjoy being bitter and judging others success as luck. That attitude will serve you well.
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.
No, I am judging you because you took an old quote out of context to bump this thread just to be a douche bag, as if I have been holding onto a btc short position ever since, desperately praying for it to come back in my favor...you know, like the way you trade. You were all idiots to hold onto btc, even if it did come back. Hold and pray is moronic, and you will eventually lose all your money with that technique.
I didn't take anything out of context, you're an arrogant moron who was running your mouth all over this thread about something you obviously had no understanding of. I'm not a day trader, I own a business and invest in assets I believe in that follow long term macro themes. Very few people can successfully time markets in the short term, and its idiotic to think most should
they aint trading they are investing

This time Im not that happy, its getting parabolic...hope the institution supporing it will keep doing it.
There's no fomo like institutional fomo!
Yeah, wouldn't mind us consolidating and finding support, might also give some room for alts to run too. Not too concerned for the long view no matter what happens here.
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
