"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.

Even on Amazon d o t com where you can see user ratings for certain books, its very difficult to judge whether a book is good or bad because people into self-help will go ahead and buy it, read it and if it gives them a handful of "aha" experiences, they will go ahead and give it a 5 star rating... I've seen some really **** books with like 4.5 stars. Hypnosis and anchoring are two things I am fascinated by though unfortunately it is hard to find out who are the current gurus that would fit best for what I want to do..... Which is to broaden my horizens with women.
The user rating on Amazon are just that; user ratings. Personally, I'd stick with the medical journals that cite specific studies or literature that is specific in nature.
 

"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 will agree with this, if there is legitimate studies performed in the United States that show something has merit and consistency, then that *specific* technique should be considered. In some part of Europe, I've been told by North American Researchers that studies on "alternative" treatments tend to be poorly performed.

I did some research on self-affirmations and I've found some positive studies @ 6, 12, and 24 months. We should put together a seperate post to discuss techniques that have been proven to have merit.
