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.
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.
How did you come to that conclusion? Since Carlos is a HUGE puncher and Mayweather has been stopped plenty of times before! Nothing points in that direction whatsoever!selfmademob said:Baldomir by TKO or KO. Mark it down...
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.
Nope.Jayer said:He said he is going to retire after his next fight?
You believe him?
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Oscar most recently said he is "not feeling" the fight with Mayweather, and that it will not be happening. He offered Mayweather twice as little as his last offer (that Mayweather already rejected). Oscar is hoping to bring Tito out of retirement for a rematch.PRMoon said:After the fight....
"I think he will get in the ring with me after tonight," he said. "If he wants to, he knows how to reach me. If De La Hoya really wants to fight me, I'll tax that [backside], too. Oscar said he wants to leave fighting the best."
Any thoughts on that?
haha, most say Mayweather has been babied through his career also. In my opinion, neither DLH or Mayweather have.PRMoon said:Didn't Mayweathers father actually train De Lahoya? I think I've heard that a few times. That fight would be pretty prolific for both fighters. Oh well I guess there can't be that much soap drama in the ring.
A mosely fight would be good too just wouldn't have as much intreste...but intrest none the less. As long as it's here in vegas again, I really don't care.
Update: Okay my local news just showed Mayweather after the fight and he says He wants him and this is his Last fight. In addition he pretty much called Delahoya out. Something to the affect of Deylahoya was babied through his career and got his fighters "hand piceked" for him, while he (mayweather) has beaten everyone they've put in front of him. It went on for a while but it was all to that tune.
