"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.

hi everybody, my teacher assigned this homework to the class:

"Write a thank-you letter to someone you have stayed with"


Do you think this one will get me a good grade or is there poor grammar or something missed or whatever? is the lay-out good for an informal letter?




24th April 2005




Dear Uncle Chuck and Aunt Annie,

I’ve been home for five days now and I already miss Brighton! I really enjoyed my holiday over there and I hope I will get back next year. Everything was wonderful, besides food. I’m joking, but I would be hypocritical, if I lied and told you that I prefer puddy over pasta! Alright, I’m quitting my complaining now! I really appreciated your kindness and your disposability towards me and I hope I can pay you back, inviting you over for Christmas’ Holiday.
I’m happy since I have known lots of new and interesting people while I stayed by you and I can’t wait to meet them again! Mum is calling me to dinner, so I have to kiss you goodbye now. Once again, I’m really thankful and I hope to hear from you soon.

Love,

Alberto


P.S.: I hope you can forget the accident that occurred at the airport, when I threatened to kill the police officer; I can swear it wasn’t my fault, I just had forgotten to take my pills. You can be sure it’s not going to happen again!
 

“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.

Overall it's pretty good. You should get a good mark. By the way, it's spelled "mom" not "mum". There are other little mistakes, but i dont wanna be accused of helping you with your homework, which can be considered cheating from your part:cool:

no, it is spelled mum not mom if he is learning english. What kind of retard are you, he is Italian, doing English homework. Plus disposability is not the right word, it means getting rid of.

both mom and mum are correct and used, but we are learning proper english, so mum is more adapt.

what word do you use instead of disposability?

"hospitality" would work.

On "mum," I'd give the teacher whatever you think she wants (but since America conquered the English language long ago, I dunno if that little colloquialism is best...)
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Here's what you should turn in. By the way, to all of the people fighting over whether to use "mom" or "mum"... if you're going to use the Queen's English in a paper you're submitting for a grade, you have to either use it for everything or nothing. You can't just use American English throughout the paper and mix it with Queen's English... as for what I fixed, it was basically words that were used incorrectly, sentences that sounded disjointed, or minor technical mistakes. Your spelling is spot on with the exception of "disposability". I hope you meant hospitality, because if something is "disposable" then it means you can throw it away. :p

I didn't know that. Diablo also clarified this point, so now it all depends on which kind of English Jay-X is learning.

As for my new buddy JSH, who called me a retard, i hope you now acknowledge the fact that BOTH spellings are acceptable and will take back what you said.

he was not saying that mom is wrong, he was just saying that proper english spells mum... he should just be sorry about the "retard" part... but nowadays it seems common opinion that insulting somebody that makes a little mistake is an acceptable thing...


anyway, brighton is in england, fitch, right in front of the chanel

Umm...you might want to get rid of "quit" as well. It's not something we generaly tend to say.

too late, i already given the essay to teacher:)
 

"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.
