"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.

Not being able to understand that we are meant to be very different, men and women are constantly at odds with each other. Often times becoming angry or frustrated with one another because we have forgotten the truth. We want the opposite sex to be more like ourselves. We have a desire for them to want what we want and react the way we react.
We assume if our partners are truly instrested they’d act a certain way, the way we react to certain things. Yet this same attitude sets us up for constant disappointment
 

"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.

So who's from earth, then?
 

"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.

Men are from Earth. Females are from stupid land. The only reason they're allowed to survive is because men feed them because, in theory, they're supposed to make good mothers.
Yeah pretty much. Men and women are supposed to have a give-and-take relationship that runs both ways. Men are better at some things while women are better at others. Mothering children being a huge thing women are good at that men are supposed to benefit from. Men and women are supposed to cancel each other out. Aaaaaaaaand then along came feminism and fvcked it all up. Now Women want all takie’ and no givie’. A lot of women are not good mothers anymore. Even when they are all they do is take the kids from the men and leave him high and dry in an empty place with no kids and over half his money and stuff gone .

It's funny that right now, I'm talking to like 3-4 different girls that all happen to be from different South American countries on the site Miss Travel. I feel no animosity towards them.

But still, at certain points of every day, I get really angry.

Not good mothers? Heck, 50% are drug addicts.

I do believe that a lot of the problems that guys have with women (and vice versa) is that they expect each other to be the same as they are, when in many ways they are complete opposites.

I was lucky enough to be raised by good parents. I mean, we didn't have everything, but they did the best they could.
I think that is one huge reason why I don't seem to feel the same anger that a lot of guys feel around here.
Having a good mother shows a lot about the benefits of how things can potentially work at least, even if society has been fatally corrupted.
