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.
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 Assistant said:He may be a criminal NOW,
But 5-7 years ago when he wrote his advice, he was simply a normal guy in his 20's who was having sex with ALOT of different girls -
To be fair, what exactly could she have done to warrant getting shot in face? If she was screaming like a banshee and charging at him with a knife, I'd cut him some slack . . but that's a pretty big leap of faith for an truly unbiased mind to make.As if the man is supposed to stand still and do nothing NO MATTER WHAT A WOMAN DOES.
I have to agree with The Assistant. Gunnys Sexual State technique changed things a lot for me. Despite some people saying women can't read minds, 99.9% of them can definitely pick up on vibes.The Assistant said:He may be a criminal NOW,
But 5-7 years ago when he wrote his advice, he was simply a normal guy in his 20's who was having sex with ALOT of different girls - and he gave advice on how to do it - sexual state, isolation, persistance, and supreme confidence.
NOBODY should use this shooting incident as a way to downgrade his advice (which I myself applied dozens and dozens of times to perfection).
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Dude, you are acting like you know what happened. That's worse than any person on this site spouting any theory about women. He very well could get 10 years; but until more of what happened comes out - let's hold off on assumptions.JT7890 said:I have NO IDEA how any attorney of Gunwitch is going to convince a Judge that he was under severe attack. It's already been concluded by the police that Gunwitch ASSAULTED the girl with a handgun, meaning, this was not self defense. Its assault and battery and he's going to be in prison for a minute. If he's out in less than 10 years I will be surprised.
He lived in that neighborhood with his brother.JT7890 said:Gunwitch wasn't one of the bottom of the barrel gurus. Gunwitch was pretty up there and he had a lot of books, websites, and speaking engagements he did surrounding this. Now, maybe he pissed all his money away? I don't know, but I wouldn't see HOW he would not have been in a middle class level of income which means he did not have to stay "in the ghetto." Maybe the reports are true, maybe he was a drug dealer, and that would make sense as to why he would spend alot of time in "those bad neighborhoods," I'm not sure.
Because some guys are more successful with women than others and have a lot more experience?JT7890 said:My question is what gives you the right to create a theory? Because you WRITE well? How can a person make theories on women to even begin with? That's my question?
I can't look at a woman and tell you how it's going to be when you approach her, how it's going to be when you kiss her, when you fvck her, when you date her, when you marry her, or when you have kids.JT7890 said:To be honest, women are so different, vast, and random, I don't know how ANY GUY can honestly say I have women figured out so much that I can make a "theory" to sum them all up.
Well, they get alot of marriage proposals. That may or may not come with sex.Jitterbug said:Gunwitch being an ugly psychotic criminal obviously disqualifies everything he has ever written about seducing women.

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.
Just got an email from Gunwitch. He told me that on second thought he has been going a little overboard with the negs lately and he suggests that we moderate them just a little. Firearms are now considered excessive.JT7890 said:Anybody got any updates on this one? What's up with all of these psychos shooting women in the face lately?![]()
You're right, on RSD the posters sound like they nearly worship the instructors, real fanboy stuff. Like you say, they have some good stuff, but don't get sucked into the vortex.That's why I like this site. It is more level-headed and balanced than most. Most usually have an over-arching theme that can turn into something resembling a religion or cult. Look at RSD. Very close ties to Buddhist thinking, Tolle worship, etc
Is that good or bad? Are you talking Danzig ala Misfits, or Danzig solo?Rollo Tomassi said:I always thought of Gunwitch as the Glen Danzig of PUA.
It's always important to consider sources.
