"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.

the guy has steel balls to do what he has done imo, Im sure at any point he could have just 'dissapeared' yet he has shown some USA activities to be way below the belt and risked his own life to do so.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

This guy is much more "alpha" that any of those anabolized guys chasing a ball and pushing each other, the demostration of that is that those in commands dont give him a free pass, guys like him are a threat to tyrants and real leader of free men.

well what i mean is i think he was very niave, i think perhaps he thought he was going to become some kind of hero but really nothing happened, i saw the video of the american chopper in iraq killing all those people down below which was supposedly one of the biggest reasons for the release, but even then most of the ameican public just remained apathetic as usual, he really just screwed himself over. at the same time i hate to discourage people from any kind of whistleblowing so im kinda torn about the issue. if he genuinely felt he was doing the right thing then i cant blame him guess.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

A modern-day hero...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beppe_Grillo

We need more politicians who win the will of the people without the use of the mainstream media. No going on these Wh0res' TV shows (for "debates"/interviews etc etc)! Only candidates from the free-info society of the internet should gain victory. The crooks are in control!
