"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've read some of it, and I found quite a few glaring contradictions within the text.

Sure, everyone says CEOs read it, but does anyone know of any specific, successful CEOs that have? Sure rap guys read it, but they're only rich because some CEO is letting them be rich. And prison gangs....since I'm not in prison, this demographic doesn't apply.

Thus, I kind of think its cash-grabby and not well researched.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

That's actually the part I wonder the most. There is a ton of historical information in the book but I have to question how much of it is true? and to what extent? He doesn't cite any sources. He could very well be exaggerating his stories (especially the ones that go back to ancient history). I'm sure others have wondered this? I can't be the only one.

Edit: Nevermind. There is a bibliography.
