"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.

According to People, an inside source close to Lori Harvey said that the two stars are in two different places in life and want different things right now. Where Michael B. Jordan may have been gearing up to take the relationship to the next step, Harvey was not ready to commit at this point in her life.

She still wants to have fun and be free. Michael is a great guy. She is sad that their relationship didn't work out, but she is moving on.
For those unfamiliar with the co-conspirators-

Michael B. Jordan is a 35 year old actor most known for playing Adonis Creed in the Rocky saga, and Erik Kilmonger in Marvel’s Black Panther. He has a reported net worth of $25 million, is just under 6 feet tall, and was voted People’s 2020 sexiest man alive.

Lori Harvey is the attractive 25 year old step-daughter of comedian Steve Harvey. She has come on the scene lately as a model, but before was noted for dating rappers Future and Sean “P. Diddy” Combs.

Was this a lack of game on MJBs part? Poor vetting? Or does Lori Harvey just think she can do better?

Discuss.
 

"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.

Who knows the dynamics but if she is banging rappers she is probably just for the streets and enjoys all the attention and excitement.

I am kinda surprised even on a niche forum like this marriage, virgings ,and unicorns are still a big thing. Because if you read on the bigger platforms like reddit you'll see countess " testimonies " from married men who act like even though the whole city is on fire, their sitting home safe like nothing is happening.

Men always use women to determine their own status. The prettiest girl, the baddest girl, the most innocent, richest ect. It seems nowadays that marriage is the ultimate symbol of manhood. Like such a man hacked the system.

I dont know what you chumps doing wrong ,but a real man like me , who bagged a unique, one of a kind woman like Stacy, doesn't have all these problems.

MBJ was the ultimate man one would think; status, money, body , fame, looks. Ofcourse he could be a giant sucker for all we know but c'mon now, it won't get much better then that for a woman. Still even a man like him cant sustain a successful marriage.

The moment a man insists on getting married he's already lost. Because it's more about YOU wanting to show other men how successful you are (best case), and its rooted in a scarcity mindset. Even worst when you do so because you think she won't go nowhere.

Let this be another lesson for al DJ,s at least. Because 80 % of men dont study game anyway so be prepared, there will be many many more lesson from celebrities to follow.

They're better off broken up. Lori isn't all that hot and comes from money, and MBJ is always going to be fronting since he chose to use the name "Michael" with the last name of "Jordan". Even if that's your legal name, it's a little narcy to go with it, middle initial notwithstanding. And you can see he's fronting in the youtube screen capture above, with the fake snarl.

I mean, if you're parents last name is "Einstein" and they chose to name you "Albert", you'd be a fool to go with it.

Age. He is 35. She is 25. That is very young for a woman the West, it’s like being 15 in the East.

If she was 33 and he was 43, then she wouldn’t be so eager to break up. She still has 4 good years to f the Alpha Males before settling down.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Cap. She is elite tier for black women.

What? That’s his legal name…

Normally not in to celebrity break ups. It’s just interesting to see the clean cut version of Tyrone getting dumped so that this thot can go get run through by more hood Tyrones.

There's also tons of success stories, but people tend to only pay attention to the negatives.

What's good @Zimbabwe .

I believe it's the other way around actually. Tons of disastrous stories ,but men keep focusing on the positive ones . This is obviously a yah nah discussion. Ofcourse there are successful examples, but tbh you'll be hard pressed to find those.

I would like to know if te successful marriages were initiated by the man or by the woman, I believe the latter is necessary to sustain a successful marriage.

If you look outside of the west you can see that divorce rates are still pretty low. A successful marriage takes work from both sides, there needs to be communication and compromise.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Probably sick of her ****, dude is a good looking famous actor who should be alpha as ****. All that women has done is hit the genetic lottery and she's on the same level of him. He probably turned into a *****.

It is tough to wrangle a 25 year old woman for a long time, they are like cats.

He’s much better off without her.

She’s been on the carousel for a long time, her N count is way too high.

Definitely not the type of woman you want to attempt to settle down and have a relationship or children with.

-Augustus-
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Most definitely poor game on MJB’s part.Lori Harvey’s THOT tendencies were well documented before they got into a relationship.This is a guy who had women of all shapes and sizes all over the world swooning for him, and yet he chose to get with a girl like her.That’s why there was outcry when they got together.The overwhelming sentiment was that he could do much better.And he still easily can.

This looks to me like Lori saw beneath the glitzy Hollywood veneer and wasn’t enchanted at what she saw.He probably simped over her,because if the rumours are true,then he tried to propose to a thot he had dated for just over a year.Smacks of all things you’d associate with simping.

The fact that they dated is probably a bigger achievement for her,a pretty feather in her cap,than it is for him.

This is just more proof that you can have all the looks,status and money in the world and still be a simp without the right attitude.

Apparently he wanted to settle down and push things to the next level and was talking kids and she wasn't on the same page

Funny that women are the ones that complain about men supposedly being "afraid of commitment"
