why are you reading celebrity news?
aren't there any real issues to read about?

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.
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.
This is such a good observation it could almost be it's own thread.ketostix said:BTW, the word "creepy" isn't in my vocabulary. It has no real meaning other than a vague label to shame and insult males.
And emotionally unstable men. Criticise Madonna all you want but Brad Pitt has been doing the same thing. Manginas and spineless wimps are as big a problem as the dimwitted women who recite Oprah parrot fashion and feminist scum who are too ugly to be dimwits.picard said:there are enough of spineless men who bow to these Madonna type women.
This century is indeed gone mad. The world is full of emotionally unstable women.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
That has more to do with society then anything else. Go to Eastern Europe and women of any age group have interests and hobbies of their own. Women in the west watch TV, shop, spend all day with their "girls", party and ****. When they do have an interest outside that it is normally a way for them to meet men.But would you want to? As mentioned above, women 23-28 are no FUN. Stop thinking with your d!ck at the expense of your soul.
