"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.

I dont' get what this girl's deal is. Last Sat. we went to an Xmas party it went well i kinda got drunk and talked too much but w/e the night ended up well we kissed and all that, but it's like she's giving me the cold shoulder and not making an effort to hangout.

I asked her to hangout Today (Tues.) and go see Kong she said 'I can't' no reason behind it just 'I can't' then i was like eh w/e just a fluke, so i asked her to go see a movie Fri. (the special olympic one woo hoo) and she said 'I think we're going to see family at my grandma's Fri.' It's like she's not making an effort and not even saying hey well if we can't Fri. then let's try for Saturday or next week.

And I leave to go to Europe next week 27th, and she knows that, and i come back on the 15th but it's like wtf what's her deal. She said she likes me, we kiss, so wtf is up????

Help Guys what's this chicks deal???
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Get a different girl to hang out with. But do not drop her.

Once she finds out your true worth, she will come crawling back.

On the other hand, if she doesn't, you have this other girl. Win-Win situation.

She's probably getting LTR vibes from you and is trying to keep her distance. Ignore her, play cold (but remain polite), and talk to other chics. Women know when a guy is having a good time without them, and they start taking you less and less for granted.
 

"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.

You got drunk and talked too much. That's not real solid game. However, sometimes it's enough to get a kiss-close from a drunk girl. The problem is when she sobers up the next day, she probably had these two reactions:

1) she realized that she kissed you when she was drunk, and it lowered it social value

2) there was nothing in your game she can latch on to justify her actions

To top it off, you can across as needy when you got turned down for an AFC-like movie date---boring!

You have to start from scratch and sarge her over again when you get back from Europe. This time you will have some add'l. social value from taking a trip to Europe. Leverage it in a conversation with her by making strong statements regarding your trip. Then let her ask you questions and let the qualifying and challenging begin...and other attraction techniques.

she wasn't drunk.
Also she's the one that said she wanted to hangout more in person to get to know eachother so what's that BS when she doesn't hangout.

Should i just start playing the ignoring game? I was gonna see if she wanted to hangout Sat. then say ok well i'm leaving for Europe on the 27th so if u wanna hangout give me a call.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

And whats in one of the glasses, an engagement ring? Dude buying the girl a christmas gift when she's blowing u off liek this? no no no man u never put all your eggs in one basket, that's how they find out how interested you are in them. You gotta keep them guessing and lead them like you want them, but talk like you're not sure you're even interested.

I think you're trying too hard, keeping your distance helps.

You're on the brink of contracting the one-it-is, man. You've seen Resident Evil, right? Where the regular people working in the office were sniffing the zombie toxin at the beginning and didn't even know it until the end, when they turned into actual zombies? Well, you've inhaled the one-it-is virus and before you know it, you'll be thinking about this woman 24/7, handicapping yourself to this one person.

Best bet is to next her for a while. Quit making excuses to call her, see her, visit her, etc. Act like you have a full plate and you're busy. In truth, you do have a full plate...a full plate of women at your disposal but you're not eating from it.

After reading all that, here's my advice.

Get on the plane and go to Europe. Don't call her again.


She isn't putting forth any effort to hang with you. Do not try and rationalize her behaviour.... It'll get you nowhere. i think you dove in way too seriously for something that just started out... you bought her a gift?

wow

I'm not a big advocate of saying this, but.........NEXT!
 

"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.

Help Guys what's this chicks deal???
Here is the deal. When a woman wants to be with you, and is into you, there is NOTHING on this planet that will keep her from you. Not deaths in the family, not kids, not husbands or boyfriends, not jobs, not anything. She will go through, around or over any brick wall/obstacle to get with you.

When she is not interested, there are lame excuses. Bottom line.

ok man you must realize that gurls see guyz as a prize, if you let her win you all at once then there is no effort, challenge for her...if she says ohh i cant be like that's cool i guess we'll talk later, if you're lucky..and end it at that, dont be ahh can i see you the day after that or the day whenever your free how bout the say after that...get multipul girl-friends that way you wont be so hung up on one girl
i have a girlfriend and then have many, many, many girl-friends that i can do stuff with, therefore no one gurl gets my entire attention and you know that when you deny a girl what she wants it makes her go crazy,,,try and break a date or something like that with her, she will desire your presence..good luck and get some more girl-friends
 

"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.
