"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.

If you imagine a suave guy in your mind I'm sure the first thing you think of is an easy smile.

This is something I've always struggled with. Growing up I rarely smiled. I think this was mostly because I was shy and didn't like outwardly expressing my feelings, even good feelings, so I bottled them up. I think it is also partly because I think a lot and when you are concentrating hard it is natural to frown a little. So I tend to smile on the inside and people can't tell when im happy.

I try and force myself consciously to smile but it turns into a grimace as im straining. I also feel incredibly self conscious

Anyone got any tips for this or exercises to help develop a natural and habitual smile.

I wanna be one of those guys who naturally smiles all the time
 

"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.

Look in the mirror and pick out a smile that you like. Just experiment with different faces. I've also had this problem because I grew up as a shy kid and never really smiled. When I started learning all this stuff, a smile was what I really needed, but I would never do it because I was insecure by how it would have looked since I've never done it before. So instead I would stand in the mirror, try out different smiles that I thought looked the best, and that's what I sticked with. Now I'm smiling almost all the time.

Must be a common problem for shy people. I also feel weird smiling because I'm just not use to doing it.
