"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.

I went to the doctors a few days ago for a rash. He looked at it for 3 seconds and told me to pull my pants back up. He smiled awkwardly at me and told me "you have herpes". I didn't want to believe it and did everything but yell violently at him to give me a test. He was right, I have herpes. My girlfriend was tested and is currently waiting on the results. She tells me she will love me no matter what and wants to be with me either way. This is just too hard for me to believe. For those of you that have never been told those three little words, it hits you like a bowling ball in the face. Everyone knows it doesn't go away and now it's always funny to joke about it until you get it. It sucks.

I am looking for some advice with my girlfriend and will the disease if anyone has it.

Thank you.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Sorry to hear that. I hope that all guys out there will be careful. It's not all about just getting laid, it's protecting yourself too. Most guys just worry about results, never thinking that their lives will change once they bang a dirty little sluvt. Do you know how you got it? From who? It's up to her now whether she stays with you. Don't be surprised if she walks if she doesn't have it yet.

I would suggest researching it a bit more. Herpes is forever, but you only get out breaks a couple times throughout the year. A lot of times you may even forget you have it.

There's a possibility your girlfriend may not have it. For some people, they are just a carrier.

There's also a possibility your girlfriend GAVE it to you. Either unknowingly, or knowingly. I wouldn't run it past anyone these days.

I'm sorry to hear the bad news. But life moves on. A lot of people have it. At least your girlfriend is understanding. If all else fails with her, then there is dating sites dedicated to people who suffer from with STD's. So don't think it's the end of the world.

ya 89% people in the world have herpes... well, type 1 that is, and most people don't know about it. If you get sore or ulcer in your mouth, under the nose b/c you overworked, you have herpes.

herpes II is sexual, yap so don't feel too bad. you know, in that sense i have herpes too, although it's type 1
 

"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.
