"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.

Now i can easily hold EC with a girl and probably her with me (if she isnt intimidated), however when we do, we both wind up having deer in the headlights look. And usually me or her looks away first and act as if nothing happened.

or ill glance at her every so often and, girls know when theyre being checked out, and when she looks over i look away...or vice versa.

thinking back i had quite a lot of opportunities these 2 weeks that i didnt do anything with. i didnt care at the moment, but now im frankly quite pissed at myself. some of those chicks were hot too...

anybody with similar stories?
 

"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.

Dude we all have similar stories. Thing is to learn from these mistakes or missed opportunities, otherwise we'll keep making the same mistakes:

"Life's lessons keep repeating until you learn them"

A few weeks ago i got really really drunk with a female friend of mine (HB8), just the two of us. We ended up at her place and we were flirting heavily, touching eachother bla bla... and because it's been a while for me, i chickened out, like a wussy, and just watched tv for a bit with her, then i stumbled home.

When i got home, i felt like the biggest idiot in the world. And i was. And i dont think i have a chance with her now, she thinks i'm a loser for chickening out - she called me gay the next day bla bla bla whatever. (i prob still do have a chance but that's not the point)

Anyway, learn from your mistakes. The past isn't as important as the present/future.

Do not look at those lost oppurtunites as something you may have regretted. Look at them as a lesson on how to better yourself. This occured to me today,a hb 7 walked by and glanced at me and I glanced at her at the same time,both quickly looking at different directions. I do not know why I let her get to me but I could have been a man about it and just said "hey hows it going." LESSON LEARNED. (I think to myself)Next time she comes into my job I will talk to her promise.
