"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.

Getting un-confident towards women due to my status

Hi all,

I'm 26 (turning 27 late June) and I'm seeking to start my programming, developer career. I am studying a Computer Science with Maths degree part time which I will complete at 29.

Realistically, I'll probably get my first job in 6-7 months time and that too only on £20k/$280000 as my first salary although with experience I can move onto higher paying jobs after as .NET/Java developer.

Who knows, once I get that first job, women may look at me differently.

I'm scared if women look down on my first salary and they do not trust my ambitions to move ahead in my career and earn good salaries 2-3 years after I start my career. I could be out competed with those men in well paid accounting and finance jobs.

The career I'm going into is quite well paid and I'm very ambitious to earn well.

Appreciate your comments
 

"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.

You have nothing to prove to anyone else, including women.

You have a job, you have a passion... passion is contagious... it excite the listener.... hence: you are good.

Stability is a turn on

Work on your health, anxiety approach and the girls will be yours

Girls hate the middle. If you aren't a lawyer, Doctor, surgeon, ceo, rich business owner, pilot, or fireman then a woman won't give two ****s about what you do.
 

"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.

Abundance is a state of mind. Women feed off your state of mind, not what actually is.

Bro I can tell by your post you're a bit self conscious and have some confidence issues. Is that fair to say?

Ok, because ^that^ will be by far your biggest problem with women. Doesn't matter if you're a student making $0 or $30k.

So the good news is, your concerns are nothing to worry about. The bad news is, you're worrying about them.

Stop worrying about things that could happen in situations that haven't happened, and just go how out and meet women. You will gain confidence. Everyone has to start somewhere. In the meantime chill, one step at a time.

I went from being a student to making 65k a year and it hasn't done **** yet. In addition, I got flaked on by a single mom with two serving jobs this weekend. She knew what job I had too haha.

If you don't have something, don't talk about it. Only show off your good parts.

A rich guy might be able to get women because he flaunts his wealth, but so what? That doesn't mean he's in a healthy relationship and that doesn't mean you have to be rich to get girls. If you present yourself well and have good game she's not gonna know and if you end up really clicking it shouldn't even matter to her.

Yea a lot of these girls are gold diggers but that's honestly their problem, not yours. That's her future BFs problem. You can play those girls however you want but how could you take them seriously? It's super easy to make a girl think you're rich, but the question you should be asking is how can she benefit your life? I like it when a girl shows me signs she's a gold digger because it means I can play her with no remorse.

If a woman judges you by salary then she is a gold digger and you don't want her in your life anyways. I have a buddy that owns 4 subway restaurants and is doing quite well. When he meets women he tells them "he works at subway," to see who is the gold digger or who is actually interested in him.
