"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I've just realised how horribly selfish women are...

Thinking about some stuff here, and I realized how selfish they are and they only come to you when they want/need something.

Example #1: Back when I was clueless about everything, I knew this girl who had problems with her boyfriend. Me, being the clueless chap I was, talked with her, listened to her problems, got "close" to her, she told me how special I was, blabla-****ing-bla. This was during last summer (06 summer). School started again, things got better with her Boyfriend, we hardly talked. Fast forward to this summer. Not as clueless as before, but instead experimenting. Things got bad with her boyfriend again, I did the same thing (on purpose this time) and guess what? Same thing happened. As soon as things got better with him, she stopped talking to me. Now the only moments she talked to me was to ask me for help with school-related stuff. Otherwise, nada. Hypocrite much? Yes

Example #2: A girl at work, we are getting along well, lots of kino and all, but she's a practice dummy. I did her a service once (pretty much knowing what would happen) because she really needed a day off, so she got even nicer with me. Now recently she asked me to take another one of her shift (HA! I knew she would), so I said no. Now all of a sudden, she isn't nearly as nice as before and she hasn't written on my wall once over facebook (she used to write daily)

Example #3: I tried to game a girl which I knew was hopeless (just for kicks), asked her out twice, she found excuses not too, no biggy I was expecting that. She never engaged any form of conversation at all with me, and all of a sudden I hear from her, asking me help for one of her class that we have in common.

Example #4: A girl whom I consider my best female friend. I am always there when she needs me (if things go wrong, whatever) and I do not mind. I chose my friend selectively, but once I chose them, I really devote myself to them. She is also there for me when I need help, but it's not nearly the same. I do it because I want too, while she does it because it seems like a chore. If I were to ask the same kind of help to one of my closest mates, they would do it, but not like it were a chore, but because they truly want to help me out.

Just a few examples, but there are many more really. Women are selfish :D
 

"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.

Dude, I hate to break it to ya but human beings are selfish by nature. This statement might have a negative connotation to it, but it is true. Don't think of selfishness as a bad thing though. It is vital to the human condition.

Yeah, I think you're mostly right. Just goes to show you that you shouldn't try to be friends with chicks, I guess

It's good to see that you're experimenting with girls and gaining some experience, tho :up: Keep it up, and keep improving yourself

Everyone is selfish to some extent. You're selfish too, you want to become women's friend because you hope that they will have sex with you or do stuff in return for your nice deeds. That's the hypocrisy and self pitty of the nice guy. Everyone is so selfish... everyone but me. If you weren't selfish you wouldn't whine about it, would you? :)

Everyone has their own agenda, get used to it.

BannedGod, next time you like a girl, let her know from the GETGO that you are interested in being more than just friends. Don't be her therapist - I don't think that's your true calling when it comes to women.

Everyone is selfish. Men and women. Women are not necessarily more selfish than men, they are just selfish in a different way because they are different creatures. And it's all a bunch of generalities anyway.

Understand how we are all different and use it to your advantage.

Yeah, I agree with the consensus here...it ain'tint just women....however...


I think generally women are blind to this trait within themselves. Most of us, as men, are quite aware of our selfish natures. I really think most women have deluded themselves to this though and they would be offended if you pointed out their blatant selfishness. This is the most galling thing, and it's what separates male selfishness from female selfishness.

The female sense of non-accountability...

Example one, it is kind of your fault that you associated yourself to her as the guy to go to when her boyfriend gives her shvt, that's what you're known as to her.

Example 2: what a bvtch haha.

example 3: guys do this to, i know i do =P

example 4: Guys in general are more devoted to our brothers, but i feel you on this one, girls just dont make as good of friends as guys.

overall, everyone is selfish, it's not a bad thing and i also agree that women and men are selfish in different ways.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
