"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.

Don't want to be unsympathetic but does this girl learn to fake cries at an early age? Or is she truly crying...with no tears?

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

My daughter has just hit that stage, she's seven and will throw a fake crying fit to try to get her way. She's been trying it on everyone lately.

That being said, I wouldn't go so far as to say this girl who's father just died is fake crying. In fact, I would probably look at you like WTF man?

I would also go on to say "it would be really cool if MJ stood up in his coffin and started doing the thriller dance, the crowd would go nuts". But that's mainly because I'm a douchebag (or so I've been told).

in closing...this is in the wrong section...mods move it to miscellaneous.
