Uh..Yeah. That'll teach him.

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.
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.
You are a royally androgynous douche. A real man would be a man of DIGNITY, who would be able to SAY NO, because he knows that he doesn't need to go cheating in order to think he's more manly. If a man wants to play around, he shouldn't pretend he's being exclusive to her in the first place. Punch yourself in the face.Originally posted by Royal Elite
You my friend have too much estrogen in your blood stream, and as a Man your testesterone level should be a lot higher.

Listen homey, you are the Man in these beautiful relationships and therefore it is the woman's job to worry about you being with more then one woman not you. Sit back and enjoy your NOW, and if the time comes where they find out deal with it then.
The good thing is none of them can beat you up, so you dont have anything to fear, except coming here and hearing these lame girlie men post here.
All you cats here posting for the other side MAN-UP!!!
And here we have another female posting as a man, or a man who unscrews his piece and gives it too his girl (if he has one) before he leaves for work everyday. Men have been polygamous from the beginning of time but I guess MF and his feminist friends believe that nature was mistaken for all these thousands of years.

Anyone who thinks that loyalty, dignity, and self-respect are not traits that a real man should want is a moron, period.Originally posted by Royal Elite

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.
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.
Oh man...this attitude SO makes me lose respect for you.Originally posted by Royal Elite
