"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.

Well, anyone seen any articles or can give any clever words?

I've checked the bible, but nothing great yet. My problem is trying to develop that really adventurous side of me.

So far, I do things like rock climbing and go meet new people... not sure if that's what adventurous means, though.

And no! I'm not doing anything stoopid! Like getting a mohawk, or tying my BMX to a Motor Bike and riding 120km/h. :-( - That reminds me: stoopidity doesn't mean adventure, does it? Just curious to hear your opinions.
 

"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.

hehehe, adventure is for the brave keeper:cheer:

adventurous means your willing to do anything within your limits, you can be adventurous, dangerous, active, exciting etc... there's combinations of words that can be used to describe a person that make-up an "adventurous" personality.

I assume you mean adventurous persona though, since a personality is in your mind and basically conveyed through words.

when I consider dangerous, I just run my mind wild with thoughts of being daring and dashing. pumps me up.


Are you looking for ideas, inspiration, or "advice"? I can't provide advice, I am but a feather in the storm, my advice should hold no weight.


All that I have to lay before you is that I am a hardwired human, looking to reach new limits, show people things that they have not seen for ages, and to inspire others to stop being slack asses and to get up and laugh at yourself

Stop giving a **** about rules and social norms. Live like you are terminally ill and about to keel over anytime.

No, stupidity means not spelling "stupid" correctly. :p j/k Girls are typically VERY boring people. As a matter of fact, I haven't met one yet who wasn't. "Yeah, I like shoppiiiing, hanging out with friends, things like that." :rolleyes: Anyway, they want a man who ISN'T boring, to make their lives exciting, even if it means just being with a cool guy. I think adventurous is anyone who tries new things, and isn't afraid to do things that aren't really that popular. Exciting is even better. Better still, is the "dangerous" persona. Chicks dig risk-taking guys, they got balls, they show it, everyone knows it. I think any girl gets a rush when they ride in my car with me because I speed like a maniac. Just simple things like that will give her a rush when she's around you. She feels like you are more powerful and she is living her life through you really.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Go online and check out some adventure travel shops. eg. skydiving, other extreme sports. There is a huge following. Also, get into river rafting, that is some fun stuff, and chicks love it.
