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.
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.
@Solomon likes to start sh*t with people for no reason.
Lol, yeah I've seen that. I think @guru1000 honestly has a lot of these guys fooled on this website, to the point of where if GURU has an issue with a Poster, many of these guys just automatically think the Poster is problematic.@Solomon likes to start sh*t with people for no reason.
All I do is post my opinion. This idiot starts insulting me because he doesn't like a thread I create or my position on a topic lol. What does he CARE with all this "success" anyway?
If I go on the attack.. I'm either attacking the person's position or I'm responding to an insult thrown at me. However.. I don't just go to people's threads and start calling them names like a BPD hoe.
Yeah, there is definitely some political sh*t going on on this forum. I've had that issue with @deesade where we actually agree on stuff, but the guy wants to argue with me anyway.Lol, yeah I've seen that.

I went through the same issues with @BeTheChange. I would offer him advice, congratulate him on some of the things he's working on, but for some reason that dude has contempt, hatred, and vile towards me and I have no idea why. He also claims he's black, which is even further confusing as to why a black man would hate another black man like that for no reason lol. The ONLY thing I can think of, is Guru has programmed him into doing this. He never disagrees with Guru, challenges Guru, etc.
But I must hand it to Guru, I mean the guy can really "blow smoke" up people's a.sses on here. I guess folks are just gullible, hell I don't know lol.
Excellent point lol! It's just the problem that comes when you speak from your heart or speak the TRUTH as you see it.....the reality is that at some point in time, you are going to be speaking in contrast with "certain people who currently like you" and this might turn them against you lol.Yeah, there is definitely some political sh*t going on on this forum.

I've also noticed how you often get no credit for your great posts just because you are "Tenacity". However, if another posters says the exact same sh*t, they get 20 likes lol.
Seems people here care less about FACTS and quality content and more about "who" is saying it. Pretty stupid when we often complain about double standards in marriage court, yet we inflict double standards on ourselves. How STUPID is that? LOL.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
