Half the fun to me are all the feelings involved. If there aren't any then I can probably find something better to do.
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.
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.
What you’re feeling is a temporary state and will pass. Men naturally are wired to mate with as many females as they can to pass on their genes to the next generation. Societal conditioning tries to control and water down this natural programming. Take a little break and get back in the mixHalf the fun to me are all the feelings involved.

A fatal mistake i made.Half the fun to me are all the feelings involved. If there aren't any then I can probably find something better to do.
It's been my entire adult life, pretty sure it's just who I am. Sex always has the risk of pregnancy, and not only am I not aborting my potential first born, I'm not going to **** someone I wouldn't put a baby in.What you’re feeling is a temporary state and will pass.

Congrats on the emotional stunting, I guess.A fatal mistake i made.
#metoo was at a point when i thought me spinning plates is the issue i dont develop "feelings" anymore for women. I couldnt have been more wrong.
In the long run it puts you into a scarcity / oneitis mindset. You will do wrong (emotional) choices when it comes to women and this will get you into trouble.
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.

The time could be better spent on actual endeavors that yield a ROI. Modern women are a liability. Well played playboy.Half the fun to me are all the feelings involved. If there aren't any then I can probably find something better to do.
SameHell all the times I’ve had oneitis was with women I hadn’t slept with or wanted to sleep with but couldn’t make it happen. If I have sex with a woman I’ll never catch oneitis.
Exactly! I don't get MGTOW dudes. They complain about a certain type of woman and then do all they can to be surrounded by those and only those.I’m at this stage. I honestly need to have some connection and a background on the female. My bro’s still do one night stands when we are out or on a trip and I am usually laughing my @ss off the next morning when they are trying to sort it out. I also feel that in today’s day and age you open yourself up to Pandora’s box with chicks you don’t know... not saying it can’t happen with females you know but it’s probably less likely you will contract an Std if you have an idea of the girls history and character... you also never know when that one night stand might get home to the husband or boyfriend they lied about and suddenly claim they were raped to save face.... no thanks
