"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.

Is the 'player' tag something to acknowledge or deny?

Hello men,
In the past fortnight I've had two chicks at work say something like: "Yeah, right, but you're just a player."
When the first girl said it, I laughed and gave a non-committal answer.
Then when the second girl said it, I got a bit defensive and shot her down.
I've been single for more than two years and almost all the chicks at work say crap like: "Why don't you have a girlfriend?", "You deserve a really nice girl" and all that.
So they obviously think I've got something good to offer (and I will as soon as I can get them alone to work my angles), but I get the impression the 'player' impression is something that's holding them back from having sex with me.
What are your thoughts? Should I act the part and tell them what they already suspect (you know, the 'bad boy' routine) or should I act a bit more innocent, mysterious and NOT a player? What would be more effective?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

tell them "ya I love playing football"

Ive found that a lot of woman I attract will comment on this. Think about it, you are making a woman feel something she doesnt feel with many other men, she of course is going to think you must have this affect on every woman.

if you deny it your AFC, if you confirm it, you are her worst fear.

If a girl calls you a playa, it's a very good sign.

It means she is interested in you, that is unless she is coc* blocking.

But mostly if your with a chick you and her and she calls you a playa', it's because her interest level has peeked, she is simply trying to find a way to reject you, to put it another way, she is looking at you as a sexual creature.

The best response is to either smile at her and dont say anything, or simply make a joke of it.

The worst thing you can do is for it to affect you and to go on the defensive, or to try to explain yourself.

You could also ramp it up, find fun and cool ways to ramp up the interaction.

Things personal to you.

This is a form of compliment, same has a girl your with asking you if your gay.

If a girl says you need a really nice girl, dont agree like your a 'really nice guy', simply turn round and say "i'd prefer a freaky one" and give her a smile.

It sounds like to me though these girls are busting on you, because your a nice guy, it wouldn't suprise me if they haven't said "Your too nice", to you at some stage.

I love that 'freaky' angle and will use it. Thanks.
Interestingly, I have been called 'too nice' in the past but not by these chicks and not for about 15 years.
I'm getting on the drink with them on Wednesday night after work and I'm considerably more confident now if, in fact, it is a compliment. That's how I'll treat it at least.
 

"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.

Not only with this, but I find that it's always good to be very vague with women in general. They love it when you fvck with their heads.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
It's not something that mandates an answer.

HER: "You're just a player."
YOU: <chuckle> "A player??"

Say it in a way that says, "I'm surprised you said it, but I'll go along with it just for fun." As if the title itself was a "joke".

Because really, that's what it is. ;)

Then go about doing whatever you were doing.
