"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 was told not to post a question in the tips forum, so here it is...

I just started a new program at college, and there is one girl in my class...I think she's pretty sexy. We talked today and she mentioned it is her birthday tomorrow, so should I do anything about it?

I can't invite her to the pub for a drink because I have to drive to an important appointment right after class, so what do you guys think i should do, that is, if anything at all?

Thanks!

P.S. Mods, go ahead and delete that post in th etips section. My appologies!
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

you dont even know this chick, why does she deserve anything because its her birthday?

ask her how her birthday was the next time you see her. thats it.

most guys are gonna offer to buy her a drink or try to invite themselves to the party.

wasted-nicks idea isnt bad, could be funny

i agree with chromeo. you don't know her so why should you do anything for her?

Just wish her a happy birthday and tell her you'll buy her a drink next time your available since you have to jet now.

The next 2-3 times don't mention anything and possibly the 4th time u see her again remind her about that drink.

I disagree... You should give her some stupid, cutesy, funny, cheap gift. Something you'd find on the counter at a convenient store - no more than $1.

Be a little more bold and set yourself apart.

I'd tell her you'd like to take her out for a b-day drink but you have an appt right after class and see if she'll agree to another time for the belated drink. Nothin to lose right? You aren't a man if you can't risk rejection. So what if she were to say no. Give it a shot brother.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I was thinking more like...not spend a dime on her and make a card using computer software lol. It won't take me longer than 2 minutes, I just need to think of a cheeky/funny comment I can put in there. Any suggestions?

P.S. A buddy of mine (he has a GF of 3 years though) bought her a card. Like I said I have an idea, but do you think that would be appropriate or would that be going overboard with it?

Thanks!

cheesy card = overboard

We gave you advice on what to do already. Just wish her a happy birthday and ask her how it went the next time you see her. Don't worry, you'll probably be the last thing on her mind that day.

Yes that is great advice, give a girl a gift when you don't even know here. Some guys here, regardless of age don't seem understand that its NEVER about the cost, its the image it will create in her head about you right off the bat...


Never buy a girl anything when you don't even know her.


Just ask her how her birthday was, establish some rapport and create attraction. Then ask her out and see what happens.

There's a difference between a guy that is thoughtful and creative and a smartass like that with everyone and one that buys a girl a gift to act different because he wants to f*ck her. Self shines through.

The birthday present you should give her is giving her the chance to spend time with you. Ask her out.
