"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.

Recently I devoured the book ‘The Rational Male’ by Rollo Tomassi. It was a great book which gave me enormous insight in to the dynamics of genders and how both operate in terms of relationships, desires, wants, etc. I will continue to delve deeper in to more of his work.
I love to read and I know many of you have value it also.

So my question is; What top three books you have read that have given you the greatest insight and have been most impactful for you in your life concerning becoming a better man and success in intimate relationships with a woman?

Look forward to the responses
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Despite being mainstream, the old book Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus has a lot of useful knowledge. The point of the book is the differences between men and women. The book came out in 1990, I think, which is not that old, but I'm not sure a modern author would be allowed to say the same things. Feminists are tremendously insulted by the idea of men being different than women.

"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.
