"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.

"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.

My Aunt had a stroke after taking Pfizer vaccine. She's recovered, and is looking forward to her second booster dose. I've opened up an online lottery account and decided to place some bets with various odds to massage into my mind that the odds of getting a side-effects is the same as winning something tomorrow, as I chose the exact same odds more or less....and to still encourage myself to take the vaccine. I even called the lottery alias after the name of a vaccine to illustrate the point. Hopefully after I see I don't win anything tomorrow I'll feel better about taking the vaccine.

Being that I was asymptomatic and the only person in my household that came down with symptoms was my GF. No reason for me to get the shot ever. Why inject myself with a vaccine that is untested and a virus I'm pretty much immune too.
 

"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.

@RickTheToad I think you need to review the Forum Rules and then re-evaluate who needs to chill.

Lately I'm seeing a lot of what I consider to be disrespectful and insulting posts. It needs to stop, and I think you can do better.
I'm well aware of the rules. Both of you are going back and forth and derailing the topic at hand. Both chill and stick to the topic at hand or the topic will be locked. It's that simple.

Here's what has a better chance of killing me than COVID

Dog-shiat American food and drink
Lack of exercise
Being shot by a mass murderer/mass shooting
Enslaving myself to a mountain of meaningless material possessions, via a meaningless corporate job.
FTFY
