"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.

Do you guys drink a lot? Both in terms of frequency of nights out, and also how drunk you get on those nights out.

I've been drinking a lot lately, and I'm thinking it correlates with my recent lack of success on nights out.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Normally when I drink I have alot of confidence and always manage to get with girls, also I enjoy myself more.. I can't handle the clubs without copious amounts of alcohol.

As a uni student, normally twice a week unless I have coursework due. Last year I would get pretty wrecked all the time, I'd forget something every week or two, made out with loads of women, but never got laid, being too drunk to realise when it was on was a big factor in that I'm certain.

This year I still go out just as much, but I've really cut down on how much I drink, I try to stop drinking when I run out of money, rather than take more out with my card, and I don't drink as heavily during predrinks, unless it's a birthday. Still not had any sex this year, but I've come much closer, ended up in a bed or two, and terrible coincedence has stopped it (1 Girl chundered over the side of the bed)

That's not to say that being drunk is the main cause for my lack of success. I have little game at the moment, I can flirt yeah, but I'm still a bit of a ***** when it comes to making a move, which is the worst part, I'll tell myself all night to do something, and still won't. A friend of mine gets just as drunk as me, but bangs fairly regularly because he has some game.

In my expereince too, most people only get laid due to nights out, that may be because I'm in uni, but all of my friends relationships have come from getting together on a night out.

I was basically the same way as Gunner regarding girls. Got laid a few times in college because I was so hammered every weekend and partied a bunch, but my game during the day was for sh*t. Alcohol was clearly a crutch that messed with my head all week. I had some hangovers that would last for a very long time.

However, in the last few months I have been getting much better, and I believe that is partially due to my lack of drinking.

Now I drink about 4 to 5 times a month, and only once heavily. I find my mind so much more clear during the day and my job performance is much improved since I have a clear mind and improved energy. Also, im in better shape. I would suggest alcohol in moderation to anyone, have that one night a month you go crazy, but otherwise, drink sparingly. You will improve in other areas of your life that are more important than women, and you know what, that is what gets you women. Not alcohol, but by being awesome.

Number one thing. Don't forget to have fun, but personally, I wouldn't worry about girls until you have your career underway with some money to spare.

"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.

as of 2/1/13 i was Alcohol free!

I have BOUGHT a drink since. ( people have bought me some. i drank them ust to be nice you know. only happened like 3 times in 3 months so.)

my experience with it is this:

I have more fun out then i do drinking. I don't for get anything because i got blind drunk and I am in control at all times. sure you don't get that confidence boost but that never worked for me. i still felt chody even when drinking.
