"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.

I have not posted here in years, but I have somthing I feel the need to discuss.

I dont struggle to hold a conversation with a girl I have just met. I know how to be funny and I know how to act a little cheeky, but somtimes and particularly with people I know better I feel like I cant be bothered to put the effort in. Like I dont have the energy. I could be with some mates and often feel in a mood where I will happily just sit back and let other people talk.

This got me thinking that maybe to snap out of this, rather thna concentrating on how I tlak to a perosn I have just met, I should concentrate on how I talk to those I know best.

I dont understand why I so often feel uninterested in conversations. Maybe I just find the topics boring somtimes?

Any comments apreciated.
 

"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.

i can relate very much to this. sometimes when i'm around my friends i get into this funk where i just get completely turned off talking about the same old **** that i've talked about for years

i'm trying to improve my life, taking up new hobbies, making new friends, and trying to make my life more interesting, because with new inner confidence, its much easier to hold your own in any social situation, and often times guide the conversation to more interesting topics (well more interesting to you at any rate ;-))
