"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.

Hi guys,

Any of you willing to shed some light on how to answer premarital screening questions? Questions like:

Why are you interested in marrying at this time?
What is your concept of marriage?
What are you expectations of marriage?
What are your goals in life? (long and short term)
What is the role of the husband?
What is your relationship with your family? (when it's actually bad)
etc.

You know, serious stuff. So I don't think sly, DJ style answers would suffice here. Also, these Q's could also come from her parents. Thanks a lot.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Are these Your's or her's? What do YOU want is a better question. I think YOU need to be asking/listening well. Marriage is MORE dangerous to the MAN.....
 

"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.

this is hers. I just imagine a woman would ask some of these questions when she's ready to take it to the next/final step. and of course i don't want to fail these questions.

Be more worried about IF she fails YOUR'S. It's NOT about meeting some woman's expectations like society has brainwashed you to believe. SHE has to be worthy of Marriage to YOU. You think marriage is the "brass ring" but many times it turns into steel handcuffs.

As a DIVORCED man, I can tell you Marriage is like a hot bath.... after awhile it isn't so hot. Pick wisely

If you owe that much explanation to anyone, anyone, you're fücked right off the bat. Take her, drop her off at the parent's house, and tell them to grill her, not you, and get the fück out of there. Insane.
