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.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
It's actually a pretty interesting question.Solomon said:lol who cares, why u so worried about ugly chicks?

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
I would concentrate on improving myself and being the best man I could be, rather than worrying if girls who you don't find attractive are sleeping with guys.nonameok said:I see lots of ugly girls dressed real nice, tight pants and whatever else and I'm just curious if there are men out there that be doing these girls. I'm talking about really ugly girls.
Exactly!!!Maxtro said:Short answer: They get as much sex as they want.
No matter how fat or ugly a girl is they can basically get sex whenever they want. She may not get the guy she wants but she will find somebody.
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.
The same could be said about any women or men...No matter how fat or ugly a girl is they can basically get sex whenever they want. She may not get the guy she wants but she will find somebody.
No the same can not be said of men. If that was true then this site and others like it wouldn't exist.SXS said:The same could be said about any women or men...
hell nah i fell out my chair laughing at that, yea ugly chicks get boned, I have one on my list atm, I don't discriminateSan Jose California said:You really have to stop posting in bold DonJuan11, or even better period.

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.
I wish to increase my post count as much as possible.San Jose California said:You really have to stop posting in bold DonJuan11, or even better period. Everyone knows you're an inexperienced tool and just post here for "forums status" or some bs reason.
and where are those good old fashioned values, on which we used to rely? Lucky there's a Family Guy.HolyG said:Why does it seem today, that all you see, is violence in movies and sex on TV?
HAHA, new season of FG just started in UKHolyG said:Do all trees have to be 15 feet tall? How many drops of water are required before you can classify something as a lake instead of a pond? How many ants are in the state of California? Do giraffes have lots of sex? Which ones get laid and which do not? Why does it seem today, that all you see, is violence in movies and sex on TV?
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
