"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.

this girl im talking sounded really bummed out yesterday. she's having very sensitive home issues goin on right now isnt doing real well. i called her and we had a very fun convo because i told her she needed to just forget about it for a while. i procceded to flirt wit her and make her laugh and she reacted real positively about it, but then she declined my date offer because she's not feeling all that well.
my question is tho, did i do the right thing by askin her out when she's down? would she have gone out anyway if she was headover heels for me even tho she feels like crap?
how would u guys cheer up depressed girls? or should i not make it my concern and leave her alone for a while?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Are you her therapist? If not, then quit trying to cheer girls up. Doing that will put you in the friend zone. You are her emotional tampon if you do that.

lol! good one:up:
but seriously tho, how would u guys do this?
That's how I would do it, usually gets a pretty good laugh from them, and suprisingly they end up keeping it in their room and use it too. You'll eventually get some since they will always think of you when they use it. :up:
 

"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.

They are her issues Im afraid mate. I know how counterintuitive this seems, but if you want her to be more than a friend you cannot ask if she needs your help. Everyone has their issues, if they need help it is better for everyone that they ask for it rather than having it thrust upon them.

You cant do anything, she has to resolve them on her own. I've found girls like that to be a waste of time. Plus, its just depressing to be around them.

"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.

Her private drama issues should not concern you. Do not be captain-save-a-ho to this girl. What should concern you is keeping her interest level and happiness up and you ain't going to do that talking about her problems. Next time she starts to talk about her life problems, change the subject into something fun and then invite her to have fun with you.

If she doesn't want to have fun or talk about fun leave her be in the meantime and go mack on another girl, until this issue resolves itself (and it will with or without your help). other wise you are going to end up like that kid that finds a bird with a broken wing in his yard, you are going to nurse her back to health and when she is all good and ready, she is going to peck your eyes out("thank you for being my friend") and fly away (run to the arms of another guy).

simple, you do NOT talk to her about her problem.

guess what, when you spend 2 hours talking about a problem to a girl, that's at least 3 hours she will spend thinking about it (1 more hour at the very minimum having afterthoughts).

you talk about fun things, and steer the fvck away from whatever is bumming her out.


then again, i probably wouldn't care, cause when you're in the same situation, that girl most likely won't do **** for you

F0ck it dude !! You need to help this girl.

alot of us know what could happen and if what we predict is true and this girl walks on you, thats experience, if she loves you for your help and sticks around it will bring you and this girl closer.

I'm starting to realize AFC's need to be AFC's in order to learn how to hurt and be strong, i'm not saying she will leave you high and dry, but dude, if you feel like helping her then do it...what ever happens next sosuave will be here, not to tell you "I told you so" but to figure how to deal with what happens next

Question of the day: Why would you even want to hang out with this chick if she's a depressed mess??? Its a little ironic to me that your signature says "girls r crazy," yet you always gravitate towards them....hmmmm!!!! Don't be a martyr to her, unless you enjoy being a human punching bag.

But I've been here long enough to know that you won't stop talking to her, so as the others have said, keep everything super casual and fun. Instead of being her shoulder to cry on, be the guy that makes her forget about her problems, if it doesn't work, it doesn't work.

And if you can't realize that its NOT a good time to ask a chick out when she's incredibly depressed over some serious family stuff, then you need a brain examination ASAP.


I'll also warn you not to get too involved with this chick's issues, even as a friend because her mental instablity will eventually seep into your life and make you a depressed sack of **** too!!
