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.
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.
Fck man, that's deep. What kind of weed you smoke.I think it's inevitable unless you have dehumanized women or don't attach emotionally. One woman will outperform the rest. Yeah you have periods of total abundance where no one stands out also but you will connect eventually and the sense of loss is there, even though you know you will land on your feet ultimately.
I don't get how other guys are so incapable of maintaining the mindset even though there's a woman involved. Sure, you won't have physical abundance, but that's not a requirement for the mindset.I think it's inevitable unless you have dehumanized women or don't attach emotionally.

Meh, only from the perspective of those who do not have it and strongly desire it while thinking it's so damn hard, it's not.We are talking about something that is much higher than normal human experience when we talk about abundance mentality.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
