"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.

How's it going SS?

I've been a jobless bum for quite a while and it has been hampering my progress so I really need this job.

My ratio for interpersonal interviews isn't too shabby. I usually get hired but seeing that I'm kind of in a pinch and can't afford to botch this. I'm checking my ego at the door and asking for your help.

What are some of your opinions on giving a good phone interview(or interview in general) for getting hired.

Bare in mind this is mere grunt work(retail store) but this will give me some savings and most importantly, money for weightlifting.

Any advice appreciated.
 

"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.

You should have a good-sounding answer prepared as to why you have not been working, as well as other common interview questions. "Tell me your 3 greatest strengths and weaknesses" is a common one. The right answers all amount to reworded versions of "I work too hard."

A real zinger of an interview question is something like "We are interviewing 20 other people for this job; tell us why we should we hire you." That's another good one to prepare for.

Any good suggestions for an answer to this? My time since my last job has been spent trying to find other jobs. There really wasn't anything going on that would impede me from working. My classes had ended, any nice way of BS'ing my way out of that one?

Also any good responses to "tell us why we should hire you"?

I'm good with words but it would help to hear what more experienced men have to say.
