You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
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.
Sneak attack her when she is the middle of something important, and whack her across the face with your GBC.DamHE said:ok thanks for ur help lordson, but now i want to have the after-fight sex with her but shes still not calling me back, i think the brick through window misfired??
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.
Yeah man.War Against Betaism said:A shiny pidgey? Or you fvcking kiddin me? You should have slapped that b1tch until her face was an apple! My God what I would do for a pidgey.
thats actually a bad idea; because then i would have AIDS tooIt's-Me said:Yeah man.
I say this guy should get aids from someone and give it to his girlfriend, stupid b1tch deserves it.
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.
To the second poster why don't you buy the OP a new game and he can apologize to his GF later. Those things cost money and money don't come cheap and to you "Scorrere" if she starts by throwing and breaking game boys. Who's to say what she might be breaking in the future. Perhaps his plasma tv, perhaps next she will wack him with a skillet and he's supposed to let it slide because she's a female and he's a guy. If I were him I'd not have punched her (a slap maybe) but if I was that mad I'd find something of equal value to her and destroy it. Perhaps that will teach her the value of other people's properties. This really has nothing to do with being an Alpha. She could've done the same thing to a little kid's game boy. As they say one man's treasure is another's thrash. My verdict to the OP is to apologize to her because you shouldn't be hitting people especially if they didn't hit you to begin with.Scorrere said:I think an alpha could play pokemon and still be an alpha, plenty of my friends in HS played it senior year when they were bored and some were pure alpha (wish I could have learned from them earlier).
However, hitting your GF over a ****ing video game? Honestly, I'd expect a breakup happening realllll soon. It's a GAME. I love my video games, but if my friends or my family or my future first gf are having problems and want me to listen, I'll listen. I've been called by a friend while I'm getting a rare chance in a game, but I'll forgo the chance because it's a GAME. It's not REAL. You're getting far too attached to the game.
Well, I guess this is where you learn a lesson. When your GF experiences such a loss be sensitive and pause your game and hear her out or let her know that she should give you a few minutes so you can give her your undivided attention. BTW , I hate that. Why do girls pick when a guy is in the middle of something that's important to him to interrupt and then hold it against you when you don't give them the time of the day.DamHE said:I'm not trolling :nono: .. You guys dont understand; she was crying about how her cat died and wtf am I supposed to do about it, i cant bring it back to life? Im going to throw a brick through her window, with a note attached, saying "thanks for ruining a perfetly good saturday", this will be an awesome demonstration of higher value..
Learn from the master, gentlemen.
PS - dedication, it broke.. it wont turn on, care to fix it?
Oh genius slapping and punching both don't constitute hitting? WOW! lol.phatboi408 said:Dude. You never hit girls!
You slap them. Then she'll fight back then have rough sex!
YEAH BUT SHE MADE YOU LOSE A FVCKING PIDGEY MAN. I WOULD TOTALLY GET AIDS TO GET A PIDGEY. QUIT BEING A FVCKING ***** MAN.DamHE said:thats actually a bad idea; because then i would have AIDS too
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.
