"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.

Exactly where I want to be.
I think I have it...The final solution that will improve forum quality 100-fold. I give you - The Grammarcaust. The three faces of terror are:

1) Though it's fairly improbable at best, I think adding a skull-busting, automatic grammar checker to this site would be, as Mr. Burns would say, "Exxcellent." One that would first check spelling and grammar before posting a post, no less.

2) Failing this, I propose every member of this forum (and all future members) be subjected to a standardized 7th grade English Test. Early estimates are rough, but I think this will eliminate roughly 60% of all registered users at this time.

3) OR! Failing that, hire my ass to be given special abilities (super powers, if you will) that will allow me to edit everyone's posts and correct the errors I see. I have too much of a regular life to get to them all, but I'd do what I can. One of the majors I'm taking is English for Christ's sake and I've got to take classes on editing eventually so help a brotha' out.

Disclaimer: Any grammatic errors in this post can be fully atributed to the lack of a spell-checker.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
