Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Female to male ratio in Ukraine is like 20 to 1

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Time to go to Ukraine and do some pickup sessions? :p:cool:
(Please spare us all of the moral bs)
Thoughts?
I'll spare you the moral BS but I won't spare a dose of common sense.

Consider that (a) millions of Ukrainian refugees have left the country after Russia invaded, (b) it is illegal for men who are over 18 to leave Ukraine, and (c) old people are much less likely to leave. That means that the vast majority of people who left Ukraine were young and middle aged women.

Also consider the fact that Ukrainian authorities are known to raid nightclubs, concert halls and other public venue in search for fighting age men who are evading the draft. That's the reason why you don't see many men in that video. But that doesn't mean there aren't any men left. In fact, I would venture a guess that there are actually more men than women in Ukraine right now due to the massive outflow of refugees.

They'd pick up the chicks for the front too if it didn't mean alienating their main support demographic for the war, that being western liberal white women.
 

“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.

You guys are all just saying the obvious which is why I wrote " (Please spare us all of the moral bs)".
My point if you put that all aside. There is a possibility that they will sign a peace treaty so my point is that in a country like that the dating dynamics must have changed a lot in a favorable way for men in terms of pickup....

Their men were just conscripted en masse to fight in a war. Ukrainian women aren't going to go for some Western guy testing out negs and a$$hole game.
The female "operating system" is hardcoded and works basically all the same all over the world. Ukrainian women isn't an exception. In a environment were women have to compete much more than normal because there is less high quality men must change part of how the game functions. Right?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Only one way to find out, you can go there. But if you're good with women you will be good wherever you go so that's a self-fulfilling thing. I don't think statistics are going to matter much. And "compete" is the operative word, they will compete for Men, and will probably rather share a battle-hardened Ukrainian man than settle for a doughy American whose idea of hard times is when the WiFi doesn't work. (Not you - just your average Western dude.)

But for instance you could also move to UAE where the male:female ratio is out of whack (more men) and you'd still probably kill it because you know what to do.

Its all just a hypertheoretical conversation this thread and I have no plans currently of going there myself.
I just think its interesting the current situation where the numbers are so extremely askew to one side like in this case where there is loads of chicks and very few guys. In the end this ends up in the same issue as the passport bros, if you move her to your country she will be and end up like any other chick in your country so its a zero sum game where you lose no matter what you do. The only option is to stay in her country if you are the type of guy looking for an IRL. However if you are just looking for some party and fun then you'll have plenty of options - yes back home too in your own country, but you might find it easier to pull and "score" in such an environment at least in theoretical sense.

Maybe wait until the bombs stop dropping before venturing out, or not.
Ukrainian women are hot though. If the US gets a long term contract to drill there, it could be a generational opportunity to build wealth and smash tons and tons of Ukrainian women.

As someone who has been an ex-pat in BOTH warring countries, and current in the main one where the Ukrainian refugees have mainly settled, I must interject. From what I have read, it seems that a lot of the young, single Ukrainian women have used the opportunity to emigrate to the EU as refugees, and might very well never come back. :( (Of course, the effect of this is to diffuse themselves into their immigrant countries, so those places have more young women around. :)) Next, the Ukrainian leadership has been wise in not blowing a hole in its demographics by conscripting young men, but rather older men - although that might change. And ironically, it is Mother Russia that has the better demographics now, as a lot of men have become HIMARS fodder, or have absconded to places like Georgia - which I am sure is now the worst sausage fest the world has even seen outside of Williston, ND :mad: - and they probably won't go back.

Of course, I could be wrong:
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I know an American guy that had bought a place in Kherson as his wife was from there; I can only think that that place is now a total loss.

Yes, I can only presume that any war veteran would mog the sheet out of a civilian Westerner; that said, a Western "foreign legionnaire" warrior there would outmog everyone.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
