"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

My sister got engaged yesterday - we havent spoken for about a year.

She calls me to tell me she got engaged , I said congratulations , she said thanks

Hang up

Not a single how are you ? but nice of her to tell me

Slight issue
She is 25 , has only been in her first job for 6 months and her "fiance" has no qualifications and lives off his family cash , which isnt as much as they think it is

Am I an ass for not exactly being excited about this ?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

what you ahve to ask yourself is are you 2 even close to be anything? serious me and my brother don't talk with each other even when we see each other we stay each on his corner, we only talk together if its a 3rd part talking with both if not... meh.

also you care? you miss talking with her or something? fights because her boyfriends? she could only tells you because your mom told her doing so too.

its up to you anyway the why, you are the one present on everything.

I think my parents told her to tell me
I tried to be a good brother too her but after she insulted my career I just don't care anymore
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Don't feel bad, I'm in a similar situation with one of my sisters. In a nut shell, I can't stand the b-tch for a number of reasons. Don't let anyone shame you for this, they haven't a clue what your personal life is like with your family.

Not everyone has a made-for-TV family life.
