"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.

Okay, me and said girl went shopping for her dress...damn she looked AMAZING and I can't wait til saturday. I am so excited about it.

Bad news though, I lost my keys when I was shopping with her and now I'm screwed.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

god must hate u.
jk man. good luck bro, have a good ****in time. and from a buncha filed reports on ehre of prom dates: if she becomes a *****, ditch her. don't let ****ty-vibes ruin the prom-night of your life.
 

"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.

Alright, I know you're not supposed to over-analyze things, but when we were shopping (and I made sure not to follow her, I looked at different stuff while she was) she mentioned how we "were like a couple." I couldn't help but get giddy when she said this. I hope this is going to materialize into something.

All the **** has been deleted, any more and the thread goes.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

**** man, you need a major mindset change, but it is possible just stick in there.

At this stage you should still be deciding wether or not you even want to be a couple with her. Imagine what your giving up! Your freedom, your time, multiple girls at once (or if not this you will be giving up your morals), all in one decision. Are you sure you want to do this? If your still saying yes, then you havent thought it through, you have to really know this girl before you can 'be a couple'. As a general rule, if your not getting any, dont go out with her.

Rather then get 'giddy' you should have responded with something like "comeon now, i need a more then a shopping partner before you can start referring to us as a "couple" "

Sammo has been giving you the right advice for a while now. You do need to get in the right mindset. Just do what he says.

Treat a 9 like a 6. If you do, you become a 9 in her eyes. If you don't, you become a 6.

finally, some useful advice....

treat her this way, but don't lower your standards and her with them. just treat her like shes a 6 and you dont really care if she likes you, cause your after bigger and better things

i also liked how of all the numbers possible, you chose to use 6 and 9. 69? coinsidence? i think not ;)
