I'm sick of this. I grew up with a mom who was so frugal that it has worn off on me. I am in very good financial shape, probably better than 95% of people my age, but I still worry about my finances way too much. Don't get me wrong - I don't want to waste my money on ridiculous purchases and bad debts, but I'd like to not stress out every time I want to buy a pizza. Any ideas? Books that might help me?
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
How to stop being a cheapskate?

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

cheapskates are the worlds worst form of scumbag.
Nothin wrong with saving your dough and not wasting it on garbage. Just think this "i might die tomorrow, so if i want this now, ill buy it".
I hope your not the type to skimp on tips.

"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.

A frugal guy a) worries too much about money b) have hard time dealing with women since guy's frugality is a major turn off for women.
Maybe meant being frugal is ok for women?

Nope, never have been and never will be.
But ive been with cheapskate friends who give some lame 25 cent type tip and it sickens me. Im a good tipper because servers work their asses off plus i just like giving them dough for some reason lol.
Its just no fun being with people who are always worried about spending.
"hey bro, wanna go to this show downtown tonight"
-'nah man dont wanna spend 10 bucks on a ticket'
"hey bro, lets hit the club"
-'no way man, parking alone is gonna set me back!'
"wanna hit this new restaurant ?"
-'blablablabla'
People like that suck.

Thats exactly how i feel, i live very cheaply, I get probably $700-$750 per week after tax yet i worry about spending $10 extra on getting a bus each week between work and the train station instead of walking (which i often do) and i get annoyed if the price of something goes up (even if only by a little). I may get a bit better as time goes by but i don't know.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
