Both Joes are doing very well. They always show the fat one doing great and then just don't mention him after that...
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.
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.
Hahaha, that was really funny!Ever onward said:That was cold how Pradeep shut Fred out of that set!
I LOVE IT!!! :crackup: :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
I believe Joe picked him because he felt sorry for Pradeep... Mystery made the smart choice of eliminating Fred though.. I mean, I don't see Fred as PUA master material...Thai Foon said:i think that the guy shouldnt have chosen pradeep as a wingman, and just let his ass get eliminated. he ****ing ****blocked that older guy (the older guy shoulda done something about it though, so i dont really feel too bad for him)
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.
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.
That is probably the reward challenge. The girl will most likely pick whichever was the best kisser by number. "Number 3 was the best." Then whoever kissed her third wins.DJDamage said:the preview for the next show looks terrible. They are going to blind fold a couple of women and those chumps will have to practice kissing them!? lol why the blindfold? so the women won't be repulsed by those guys??
I would of thumped him right in the back of his head and told him "Move along, the adults are talking here."Deus ex Pianoforte said:That was awesome when Pradeep totally sat down right in front of Fred and locked him out of the set, though. Classic. I mean, what do you DO in that situation?
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
