"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.

Goodnight Petro-Dollar, Russia gonna start selling gas in roubles

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

The US is still the most free country in the world, which is a sad thing to say. I think we just hate the government more than anything, and I'd say that for most countries in the world. They think they know best and they usually do not. But I've said for a long time we could use some shock treatment here at home if only to strengthen all the industries domestically that we lost globally. The global experiment failed and it's time to go back to fundamentals. I hope the same for other countries. Maybe we can get back some country pride and thus fix our societies through the hardships to come.

Men are not victims and we don't need heroes.
That's true, all we need to do is stand up and take it back. But even in the manosphere, men don't have much faith in their fellow males, they tend to characterize almost every other male but themselves as weak betas.
 

"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.

We don't hate the US, we hate what the US has become... the only way to restore sanity to the West is WWIII...

Woke-ism is a cancer on Western society..... WWIII is chemotherapy...
I would consider less "invasive" solution however we cant deny that few tanks in ukraine made covid and feminists disappear all together in few days.

Lol, now this is interesting. Everybody in the thread is hating on the USA except the leftist. If you live long enough, you'll see everything.
Could have something to do with the fact that USA is well on its way towards becoming a left-wing sh!thole. The one man who tried to do something about it may very well end up being thrown in jail to prevent him from running again in 2024.

Right now, the U.S government is a weird symbiosis between far-left SJW's and war hawk neocons. Basically, a combination of the worst elements of Democrat and Republican ideologies. Imagine Barack Obama and Lindsay Graham in a same-sex marriage - that's the state of the U.S. government at the moment. It's like the two sides agreed that they were going to let SJW's ruin the country domestically while the neocons were going to have free rein to try to start WWIII.

"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.

I agree about the SJWs (and the rest of the Marxist Postmodernists), but I don't think there are that many people trying to start WWIII. And the ones that are aren't exclusively neocons.

Putin is threatening to shut off gas supply to europe tomorrow if they don't start paying rubles and transacting in russian bank accounts. He's also conscripting 150,00 men. Europeans are saying they won't comply, but he has them by the balls.

Meanwhile, the US is focused on making lynching illegal and burning up the strategic reserve to alleviate gas prices.

Yeah but Putin already said today was the deadline and he walked it back. If he walks it back again, he not as strongly positioned as I had thought

I actually went to the bank to exchange some USD for Russian roubles, but unfortunately no bank is willing to offer roubles because of the sanctions...
