"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.

A few months ago we had a talk about how she was not real happy with everything and sometimes we did pick on eachother but not bad at all, over all we were doing well.

Well the past week she had been acting funny because she wanted to talk to me but did not have the guts to, last night she broke it off saying she is just unhappy with her life, she wants to lose weight, maybe see a therapest ect. She seemed fairly happy with me, even though we are different, she likes going to bars ect and I don't mind them but I am not one to go talk to a ton of friends, we are not on bad terms and still going to try to be friends but it will be hard as hell to do so since I still have feelings for her, she seemed to want me to get pissed when we were breaking up, it was killing her that I was not more pissed off at the things she did.

I am really just hopeing she needs some time to herself to get her **** together, we are both 25 and don't think either of us are ready just yet for a family ect.

Just not sure what to do, it hurts, and sucks, part of me wants to go out and find random women, but part of me doesnt.

If you still have feelings for her, the last thing you need to do is remain friends with her. Are you going to just "understand" when she starts dating and fvcking other guys while you're waiting for her to get therapy? You'll waste your life being friends with a woman, hoping she "comes to her senses".

Your best bet is to cut her off completely, take some time to enjoy the things you didn't have time for when you were dating her, and begin a new path of life by dating other women. Let sleeping dogs lie, leave the past in the past, and move on with your life.

Listen to Desdinova. He has some good advice. You can't be friends with a chick you still have feelings for. It will tear you up inside. Better off to just cut contact completely. Good luck.

I hear you on this one man. I'm going through the same thing myself. Its really hard when she calls you crying because she tried some rough/bondage **** and almost died choking on a d1ck, but I digress.

Best thing I've found to do is distance yourself. Especially if you still have feelings for her. I don't for mine but I am still starting the pull away.
