Okay, but how does my profile picture look so far at 42?? It's the real me, ya know, about 2 weeks ago.
"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.
How did you know he was the one?

"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.

Quuuuuuueeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnn BBeeeeeeeeeee!!!
You still haven't responded to me yet, and you're on here once an hour. WTF?
Meow always responds to me, and she's only on here like once a week.
I think I like her better than you now.

C'mon, @zekko, my man, @catsmeow2's response was pretty great, no?Don't forget "Be tall".
But look at Napoleon Bonaparte! Short guy, but do you think he didn't command respect from men and women alike? Then you're kidding yourself!
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Yet who did these two quality women date before the man they ultimately married?

"How did you know he was the one?"
I think most cases are something like these: High quality girl takes a look at a guy. She gets vaginal tingles. She gets to know the guy ands screens for red flags. She enjoys his company. She doesn´t find any deal breakers so she proceeds with sex/LTR. Also, intentionally or not, the guy somehow goes to the top of @Desdinova ´s High Score List, hence she considers him "The One" or her soulmate.

High Score Theory
Ever notice how women can just write off a guy and treat him like he was only a tiny blip on her radar? Well that's because he was. The more sexually experienced a woman becomes, the more accustomed she is to just throwing guys away. Every new guy she dates seems to earn mediocre to low interest...

"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.

Oh, it's already happened. Many times, in fact.

OP,
I enjoy different perspectives as well, but your threads are complete cringe. Not to mention I would give it maybe a D+ as far as trolling goes - which it clearly is. Everyone here understands you just want attention or you would have sent a private DM to the two women.

I enjoy engaging in banter and debate and some serious discussion when I am drinking. So yes, maybe I do want attention. But what's so wrong with that. It's fun and it brings me joy.
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
Women love us for our defects. If we have enough of them, they will forgive us everything, even our intellectsYet who did these two quality women date before the man they ultimately married?
