"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 our six month anniversary is coming up in about a week...
We talked about it, and she thought of maybe getting a nice hotel in San Francisco, going out for dinner, etc.
I had other ideas in mind, one would be horseback riding, cos she loves ponies and crap like that...
The whole SF thing is pretty expensive too... she has money, but I don't want her spending it. I'd rather use my money, or just some of her's... I dunno yet.


Anyways, any reccomendations on how to celebrate this LTR lasting half a year?
The relationship is going awesome by the way.
 

"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.

Uhh.. 6 month anniversary? Never heard of it. I really don't think something like that should have a special celebration, maybe a whole YEAR, but six months?

Oh well, you seem like you are in a happy relationship and a good couple, so I'll still give my input. I wouldn't go overboard and do something real expensive, mainly because the whole 6 month thing already seems a little over the top to me. I think I'd just step it up a NOTCH of how it usually is when out on a date with this girl, just a notch. Just something a little more romantic than usual. The horseback riding thing seems fine, it's probably inexpensive. It will set a western mood, so than you can start a campfire, eat some baked beans, and sing her songs on your guitar, hahaha.

(It don't really have to be all that, but the horseback riding idea sounds nice.)

Just have fun.

buy a good porn video, some sex toys, lots of lube, and a hotel room.

Sounds like a fun time to me.

an·ni·ver·sa·ry (n-vûrs-r)
n. pl. an·ni·ver·sa·ries
1. The annually recurring date of a past event, especially one of historical, national, or personal importance: a wedding anniversary; the anniversary of the founding of Rome.

You can't have an anniversary until its a year. Its actually a bi-annually celebration now that you or her has created. I hope this is a wakeup call that this is a stupid idea.

You being with her is her present - thats it. Until you are married don't celebrate being together - its really just a dumb idea that serves no purpose.
