"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.

It seems that the brittleness and prospects of our economy are becoming more and more painfully obvious. Many businesses (specially retail) would've collapsed if it wasn't for the Holiday season.

Holiday season is when retailers start turning a profit.

To top it off people keep complaining about how Christmas is loosing its meaning because the word "Christmas" is getting replaced with "Holidays" to not offend some people. They don't get it that Christmas lost its meaning many decades ago and its importance in the western world is but an economical one.

Don't you guys agree to this?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

For Christmas I will not buy anything on impulse. I will only buy quality and I will keep it until I am bored to death. I am looking at some gifts right now.

Remote control helicopter for my dad. Last year I bought him a cheap one. BIG MISTAKE. Thing broke, no replacement parts. I saved a few dollars upfront to lose all my dollars in a couple of days. I will buy a quality mini remote helicopter form a company that does this right with a full catalogue of replacement parts. E-Flite.

For myself I bought myself a pair of AKG headphones. Really nice. Cost me $200 for them, I probably should have bought the $500 model but I can repair this one because everything is screwed together with standard screws and cable connectors. Nice. These I can keep for years and enjoy the hell out of them.

For my mom, I'm not really sure. I don't have the money to spend but life is short so I'll probably splurge and buy her something pretty like an aquarium. I'm not rich, I don't have money, but I'm not in debt because I know when to spend and when to shut my wallet.

I've never bought or sought X mas presents, and only rarely bought presents of any sort, at all, for anyone. I worked at Wally's last night, and the shelves and shelves of junk toys, etc, are puke-worthy. If I had kids, I'd never let them near that place, much less go inside.
