"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.

Im thinking about getting a GQ magazine and thus buy clothing on what they suggest. But I attend college and would not wear a suit to class everyday. Is GQ a good magazine source to dress to attract?
 

"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.

Can you afford Armani and Dolce & Gabbana? Cuz the swanky clothing they feature is high fashion, aka $$$$. Are you just looking for fashion guidance?

I think GQ fashion is more for the type of guy that lives in Hollywood or Manhattan with a lot of money and a good job, not sure it's for the college aged crowd.

I bought a copy today just to see who there "men of the year" were. Whilst reading it, I noticed that they were "featuring" a hotel/appartment in venice that cost £21 000 for a week, amongst other ludicrous prices. Should give you an idea of the money you need.....

The style can sometimes be abit "poncey" for me, but if you can find the cheap version (lower end shops always do a "cheap" version), then I don't see why not.

I'd prefer to get the opinion of the fit girl working at the store like.....
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

its more of a work-style oriented magazine. but i have seen some really cool outfits.
the stuff is pricey, but it doesnt mean you cant find something that looks just like that 400 dollar pair of pants.
they have a lot of good articles though.
