"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Trump has you guys triggered like none other.
The great part is, a lot of people are seeing the stupidity in his (and your) views, and it's probably pushing more people towards Trump. I suspect he'll win the 2020 election by a bigger margin. I know, I know, Nate Silver, STATS!!, DAAADDDD!!!, etc.
In addition, it's really killed a lot of people's dependence on pop culture and the mainstream media. Can only be a good thing. Enjoy your Eminem video, LOL.
Oh, and by the way:
That's your problem right there. Your faction is too big into the FEELZZZZ. hahaha

"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.
Perhaps of cellblock trustee but not of any election in MY country.

Not sure if you're joking, but I think that one of the reasons that the sports media is so heavily in favor of NFL players sitting/kneeling/protesting during the national anthem, is because they have to work closely with black colleagues. They also hope to interview top athletes, many of whom are black. So they don't want the conflict, and want to appear sympathetic to their causes. I think it's a lot like the OJ case. If you are white, you are more likely to think he was guilty. If you are black, you are more likely to think he was not guilty.
I really respect the very few white reporters who dislike protesting during the anthem, and are willing to openly state their opinion.
I saw some of Eminem's rap, and he said something like we love our military, we love our country. But when Colin Kaepernick started the protests, he made clear that he could not respect the flag of a country that oppressed his people. Basically the protesters are saying they can't respect the country (because it oppresses people of color). If they can't respect the country, I don't see how they can respect the military that serves that country.

- Questioning why inflation continues to destroy our purchasing power?
- Questioning why our jobs have been shipped overseas?
- Questioning why cost of living continues to go up?
- Questioning why there aren't as many well paying jobs today like before?
- Questioning why the Police State is out of control?
I can go on and on....but these are problems that were created, are managed, and are maintained by BOTH major parties (Democrats and Republicans). Our true enemy is Government Corruption, Big Business Corruption, and Media Mass Manipulation.
A guy wearing a red Trump hat is not your damn problem. Neither is a guy wearing a "Hillary" t-shirt. But they want to keep us arguing back and forth with each other to distract us from the real issues.
And without question, the entire NFL players kneeling situation is just another ploy to BOOST ratings, keep us arguing with each other, and distract us from the REAL enemies we ought to be going against. Because God forbid, if Americans woke up to who the real groups of people are that are screwing them (again, that's Big Government Corruption via Democrats/Republicans and Big Business Corruption) then we would all take down those powers that be in a quickness. So they have to keep us PROGRAMMED to think the enemy is someone else, the enemy is our neighbor, etc.
It's quite disgusting if you ask me.
