"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.

Fun posting ridiculous OLD profile screenshots

"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.

Narcissism levels in this profile are off the charts.

You just know she made this profile purely for validation fuel from all the simps "omg you're beautiful and so smart!!!" I bet you $100 probably hasn't even been on a date from it.

Judging by the roses only, that means this girl is in your area's standouts, so she IS "popular".

You know she's had plenty of matches and dates based solely on that 2nd pic.
What's interesting about roses is I've never gotten a single date from sending one, often not even a response. Sending a rose is extremely obnoxious since it displaces all the other likes, forcing the receiver to either respond halfheartedly or swipe left (latter is easier). When a girl sends me a rose, unless she's 7+, I always swipe left or just send a BS reply just to get her off the queue of likes sent to me, otherwise I can never see any new likes I get.

Funny enough, I often end up seeing the same girls in the normal feed later on anyway. I think in their mind, any guy who sends a rose must be a tier below their normal match pool, even though people within your normal match pool can send them too. It's yet another reason why paying for Hinge+ would probably be counter productive, unless you're an absolute gigachad who gets 50+ likes from woman per week and can't sort through them all, none of the perks are useful.

Funny enough, I often end up seeing the same girls in the normal feed later on anyway. I think in their mind, any guy who sends a rose must be too low tier to even respond to, even if it was from the normal feed that you pick from, they have no way of knowing. It's yet another reason why paying for Hinge+ would probably actually harm more than help.
I got a match with the one I most recently gave a rose...but I also made a post about her "give me a week to think about it" response...so I don't know if I would call that a win.

I just throw it at the hottest one in my standouts in case things go well, because otherwise they'll never appear in my normal feed.

Getting a match and response means nothing lol. And that response you described means low interest.

I got a metric fvckton of matches but my conversation rate from matches -> dates is absurd, it's easily less than 10%. It's all a numbers game just like cold approach.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Yeah, but we're men.

The reason OUR matches don't turn into dates is because our girl picked somebody else.

I don't think so. A lot of women admit to using OLD with zero intention of ever going on a date. It's just more narcissistic supply to many of them. Most of them are on 2-3 dating apps at once, IG, snapchat, just an endless funnel of attention.

Point is that for us not getting a date, it's because we didn't "win out".

A woman not going on a date, if she's even mildly attractive, is entirely because she chose not to.
