"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.

both albums have now leaked on the internet! both are scheduled for a Sept.11 release. Which album do you think is better? Which album do you think will sell more?

I personally think kanye's album takes the take...the only song i liked on the curtis album was 'ayo technology' and 'my gun'.

Right now on kanyes album im really feeling the intro track and the songs 'Cant tell me nothin', and 'Big Brother'.

even though kanye cant rap as well as 50 i like him better because his raps are easy listening rather than the other raps that commonly go ''ill shoot you n!gga,ill kill you with my big guns, and i get b!tches...blah blah..."

also i never liked 50 much after his first album...
 

"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.

LOL, well if Kanye can't rap as "well" as 50, then Kanye must sound like a bigger retard than Biz Markie.

according to offtopic.com:

everyone was expecting 50 to get rolled over.

but now that the albums have been released, it's pretty evenly matched, most even say that 50 will massacre kanye

Supposedly, this 50 album should be really good.

50 is whack...at least kanye music is easy listening..beats are better.
 

"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.

50 sucks
Kanye music is positive and good music to listen to so I'll be rooting for him. I think I'm going to get the album from the stores as well.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Kanye West has songs that seem to be the reject songs of songs he produced for other artists. Needless to say, no likey.

50 cent's album I like. Sounds fresh. Makes you want to go to the gym.

I loved 50's first two albums. I hated Kanye's former albums. and don't like him as a person.
Must admit though his new CD is probably the best album to come out this year.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
