"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.

So, I will be with my gf 3 years in May. Early in the relationship she revealed that the guy she was dating in college 10 years ago, her 1st relationship, 1st lover was murdered. And, in order to alleviate the guy's parents having to do it, she ID'd his body. So, in November we take a trip to London together, and she gets pretty inebriated and I guess time change differences took into effect and she said "You never had to ID a body". Keep in mind, that we were discussing nothing even close to that overseas.

I've tried to be understanding, I mean, having to ID a dead body of a former lover is no easy task. But, it has been almost 3 years and this is still coming out. She wants to get married and I feel it's to much of a risk because she's damaged.
 

"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.

Besides this, what other red flags have you noticed about her? How is your sex life? How does she treat you? Does she flake a lot?

I mean, she has a bit of a temper. I lived at her place for a while, and everytime we had an argument she would threaten to kick me out (I have my own place now).

Big flag there. Arguments with over the top verbal threats or even her getting physical on you over small things are classic signs of damage, not of a quality woman in love.
Damaged women rage in different ways, some verbal, some physical, and some do both eventually if you stay around her that long.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Put your foot down now. Yes it was a shame you had to identify a body. But that was then and it had nothing to do with me this trip or this situation!

If you don't she will use this as her trump card to try to control every situation.
