"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.

Nice, saved me the trouble :D ... FREEDOM!! :cheer:

I'm currently spinning 4 plates, but none of those intrest me at all though... Only sexually am I intrested in those... I have however set my eye on a HB9. And next month is the internship I alwayse wanted to do...

:D all I need now is a good cigar, a glass of scotch and a good chair in the sun, then life would truely be perfect
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

How could you be spinning plates when, as you imply, you were in an exclusive relationship? Since you're talking about now you have freedom and all. Were you just cheating?

We were togheter 1 year and 8 months, but the last 3 have been going down hill. She was just done with her exams today, so I was going to dump her, but she did before I could... I did plan this out actually, stoped sending messages and giving attention for about a month now. Well that saves her her ego, meaning less trouble later on/fights later on.

I love it when a plan comes togheter :)

@ Zekko: Well, like I posted here, I was going to dump here about a month ago, but I didn't want to ruin her exams, so I just went totally cold on her. (She's the sister of my best mate)
While I went cold on her I did start to spin plates... I can't help it, it was exams and I needed female attention. And I've alwayse been taught: Never pass up on a good thing!

It appears as if you don't care at all, and that's is cool if you are really being honest and all. But something in my intuition tells me that you may not be being 100% true to yourself... And you may be hurt somehow. It's commom, it happens lots of times. I wanna help you out here by saying this... Are you masking your emotions? Are you running away from the pain of rejection? And avoiding to feel it just so that the girl doesn't "win"?

Probably not but I wanted to write that either way... I got no idea, but it could be happening! It happens so many times...

If not great for you. :D ;) edit:After reading your second post I'd guess you're cool with all this, nice then.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

So you're saying I shouldn't have write that? It surley didn't hurt to spend 5 minutes to write that, I'd appreciate it if someone did it for me that's for sure... But that depends on the person. I think we should all try to help eachother... Nothing wrong with that!!
