"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.

What do you guys like for jeans as far as really good fit? I find most of the common brands aren't very well fitting. I like them fairly tight but not stupid tight, just don't like the loose no-ass look. Opinions?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

Gap jeans, standard fit. Were on sale for 20 bucks, are now back to the 50 range. But well worth it. Perfect on waist, room on legs but not baggy.

I finally discovered my perfect pair of jeans. Levi's 514's. Not always cheap, but occasionally I find them on sale for $25 and buy them up.

You want good jeans with a good fit you have to spend some loot. Higher priced jeans may seem outrageous, but they always fit/look better. If you think about it $100 bucks on a pair of jeans may seem like a lot but I have pairs that I still wear years later. Buffalo is a great brand, Sevens (mad loot though). The best way to get a great pair cheaply is to go to your local mall and check out the sale racks in Macy's, Lord and Laylor, Nordstroms, ect. Also, if you find a pair or style you dig check our ebay too...gotta love the boosters. "A booster is a person who jacks from the retail And sells it in the hood for dirt-cheap resale" At these higher end stores they always have cool pairs on sale. Find a brand that fit well and stick with it. A good pair of jeans is hard to find, but the longer you have them the better they look.

Different people have different body types/shapes, so what brand may look great on one person may not work at all on another. Just go out to a bunch of different stores (or a department store with many brands) and figure out what works best for you.
 

"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.

My favorites right now when considering quality, fit and style but still reasonable price are the Banana Republic jeans. I prefer boot-cut low-rise jeans. I think most stylish jeans sold now are going to be low-rise and meant to be worn a few inches below the hip. And like you, I don't want them baggy, but certainly not the "skinny jeans" look either.

Diesel usually works for me.

You can probably find some great deals on ebay at the moment.
