"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.

worse of all is that is thru stupid myspace so I cant even judge a reaction.

I really have no idea where I went wrong.

Its whatever though, Im just wondering why people do this. :confused: People do this all the time. Someone will be talking or will say something, and then people just blatantly ignore them. They rather have silence than even acknowledge the person. When this happens, when I notice it, I'll always think "whats wrong with people?" and then I'll try to at least acknowledge whoever was talking so they don't feel like no one's listening. But it's so blatant, it'll be silent, obviously they heard the person they just dont say anything. This generation is about to be so ****ed up, worse than crack babies. It's about to be a bunch of mindless slaves. What a shame too, this generation can save the planet earth, but the future looks dim.
 

"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.

Yeah, I've noticed people are getting dumber. Especially with this internet speak (idk u wtf ttyl bff). My question is were a majority of people under 20 not taught basic English skills in school, or are they just too lazy to use them?

As for your problem, ehh forget it. She's not even worth thinking about.

Between gangster slang and internet's 1337-speak my generation is screwed royally. If I could beat the sh!t out of whoever came up with 'What you sayin'?' as a replacement for how's it going...they'd be dead. It's even worse when you see white people talking like that..it's one of the few things that pisses me off.

Have you guys seen the movie "Idiocracy". I swear this is becoming less fiction and more fact every day.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Yeah I notice that all the time where people are talking then one guy says something, and even if its really funny, people just ignore him/her. Communication, not only between guys and girls, is dying.

I think it's communication between anyone, same sex or not.

I hope you were being ironic dot, because if not, that is the best example of communication dying. :D

My bed, your girl.
I agree that lots of kids aren't being educated properly... It could be that schools are pushing for improvement too hard and fast and leaves kids with the feeling that they're "dumber" than they should be to everyone else.

Some teachers are almost retarded though... they don't know how to work with students, they only grade and teach in a style according to what they want, and are unwilling to change themselves. The point of school is to get into life and learn about everything, not just one subject per class in particular, however to carry on information and relate from subject to subject.

Communication definitely is dying!
Especially through lies, or if not a lie, just simply hiding the truth.
Lots of girls do this and I think they're just stupid b!tches... > _<
 

"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.
