"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.

A tricky situation?

I'm usually good at making decisions, but however, I've come across to a situation that is proving to be a tricky one to answer myself. So I'm interested to read what you have to say.

I'll keep it simple.

At my local hairdressing store, they've employed a nice looking young lady (nothing mind-blowing) who is learning the trade by the elbow when I went in to book an appointment.

With an appointment booked for next week and she will be involved towards the end, as part of her assessment. I thought I would ask her out. No harm in asking.

Sounds simple? Unfortunately it wasn't when I got home after deciding to take a break from further education. My mother has just recently, by coincidence, become her first client who will attend one day a week for a blow dry. And, unsurprisingly, my youngest sister also has an appointment booked in a fortnight's time with her.

Regrettably, I tend to feel, given the situation as it is, might be an imposition to ask and to some degree, an uncomfortable situation.

What should I do? Give it a miss and seek elsewhere as there are plenty more in the pond? Or am I being silly?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

To quote the great Gretysky "You miss 100% of the shots you never take."

Mmm. I can just conceive my mother returning back there and to discover that, if she accepted my offer the week before '' Your son has asked me out!'' Not exactly reassuring is it?

I agree with the above. But I think it is important that you remain calculated in order to minimise unnecessary consequences. Think twice, do once.:up:

I think I can do it. Depending on how it goes and if I feel the present situation is good at the time, I'll the toss bait and see.

Any more suggestions or tips?
