"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 just stopped at Winchell's and ate 4 donuts back to back. I couldn't resist. Damn, and I was doing so great lately!
 

"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.

Don't know about other guys, but it's necessary that I allow myself to eat some real shyt once in a while. I don't have too many bad cravings...I have no sweet tooth at all. But when it comes to French Fries :nervous: I let myself eat one order a week, and in that way it's easier to resist them during the week if they are offered to me. I am comforted knowing that I can have some fries on Friday or whenever. I really think when it comes to disciplining your diet, you need an occassional "exhaust valve" in order to avoid massive, cataclysmic dietary eruptions. ie, eating 4 donuts in one sitting WTF???
 

"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.

I wouldnt sweat it, I doubt 4 donuts would make such a big difference in the long run, you will burn them off in a day or two!

You should have one day a week where you eat the foods you enjoy. That way you won't get in a rut and go out and binge on doughnuts.

Psychological tricks are for p*ssies.


You shouldn't be craving foods if you are getting appropriate nutrients.
