"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.

I'm in a major rut. A looming issue is money; for clothes, and other goods and services to take care of myself.

I am seventeen years old, and in need of a decent job. How did you find yours? What are your suggestions for finding a job?
 

"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.

an ez way is through friends. You go to a friend who has a nice job and just go "so is your work hiring" and if it is a yes than you got urself a job.

Local Paper/Local Superstores

Look for jobs in these places, you will usually hear if a local store is hiring from other people.

Dont just look for a specific job, think 'out of the box', dont go for a job just because its cool, some jobs you would never have thought give great job satisfaction.

So Basically be flexible and you'll increase your chances of getting a job

I'm going to try to get a job at my local Starbucks; I wouldn't mind working there.

I'm going to head over there tomorrow!

The local paper is not hiring, they offer extremely low salaries due to intense competition.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Making coffee and all that **** is extremely horrible. Steam in your face, burn marks once and a while, etc.

I applied to the cinemas, but they never gave me a call back; I presented myself very confidently, perhaps easily perceivable as arrogance. They did not like that, evidently.

I could try again, but I am already on their record. I would prefer a job closer to home, so I can return home sooner to finish my homework.

That is a hard job to get you must be over 18.

McDonalds?
I'd like a job that hires at 16. I hear the library's a cool place to work.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

My job may seem weird, but It's actually not a bad job at all...I work at ShopRight. They pay well, I get to practice conversation with some chicks, and they are VERY flexible when it comes to my hours. I work around 24 hours a week pullin in about 180 a week which is extrememly well for someone at my age (17)

There are a few kids at my school that work at Best Buy. The pay is pretty good, and they get a pretty big discount on the latest, coolest electronics. You can also make freinds by getting them your discount on things and passing them on to your friends at just a little over what you paid for them.

Do something you love, like bookstores if you like to read etc. this will ensure success in the fact that you can learn about one of your passions and also you won’t get bored. I would recommend also looking into a paid internship in an occupation that you may want so it also looks good on college resumes.

I already applied to college. :p I do intern over the holidays, though. But, I'm looking for a well paying after school job that will last me until the summer. After that, I'm going away to college.

But, I do like your suggestion. I happen to love reading, coincidentally. I will apply to the local Barnes and Nobles, and a few small bookstores in my neighborhood; in addition to that, I will try to work for Starbucks.

Who ever pays the most gets me. :)

Good luck man, also look for benifits like employee discounts on stuff (like books for you).
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

It's better than McD's or any fast food, but then again anything else is better.

Not true.


To Contender, the author of this thread:

I wish you the best of luck. Unfortunately I think you'll need it. Here's why:

I'm 20.5 (21 this summer) and I can't find a job. In fact I haven't worked since high school (I quit a week before I graduated...there were several reasons why I did.). If it's hard for me then I don't see how it can be easier for you.

But don't get discouraged yet. You might be in the right place and time. Plus the fact that you'd want part-time while I need full-time might make a difference.
