Is getting married and having a family the way to go to a happy old age situation, with your adult kids to take care of you?
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
question: who wants to die alone?

"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.
Planning your life based on what you ASSUME other people will do is the domain of fools.
Getting married out of fear is common, but its also retarded. Getting married guarantees absolutely nothing. Divorce is common and kids can grow up to be losers or a*sholes.
You have zero control over other people. You can only control yourself. Other people cannot make you happy either.
If you get married it needs to make logical sense. There are few situations where it does. Most people do it because they perceive it as "secure". However, the fact that people are emotional and unpredictable ensures there is nothing secure about getting married or starting a family in reality.
There are NO guarantees in life not matter what path you choose. So learn to accept that and you will make much smarter life choices.

Everyone dies alone. Having a wife and kids only means you will not be able to save anything for your retirement. In the day it was worth it for a man to get married and have a family, because you received respect. You were king of your household and you were appreciated. It was okay to surrender a bit of your freedom, because society rewarded you for sacrificing for family.
Now fathers and husbands are the butt of sit-com jokes... the man is the blithering idiot. He is either a complete fool or a potential rape... waiting to happen.
For all you young guys out there you are a GODD@MN fool if you get married today in the US.

Make enough money to have people take care of you when you can't.
A girl in her early twenties would still lick your balls with joy even when its all the way saggy, money speaks.
Never underestimate the power of wealth.
They say its cheaper to keep her. Feministic Humor.
Truth is, it's cheaper to not get entangled with her in the first place.
Giving up all your resources including your last name for something as fickle as love,
the fallacy of constant monopolized pussie and thinking they'll take care for you long term
is the worst possible investment known to man.
When you finally settle down, she has to carry her financial weight. Don't be the hero.

We all die alone, dafuq are you talking about? It's all about what you did in your life before,l and the legacy you have after due to how you impacted the world before. What will be your legacy?
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

You can't really plan this kind of thing no matter WHAT you do.
The best case is to simply accept that you WILL die alone, and get right with Jesus (or whoever) before it happens.
But if push came to shove, I'd choose a devoted partner over a paid servant any day of the week.
How do you do THAT?
Just make yourself INCREDIBLY valuable to enough people so they'll be DEVASTATED when you die.
You don't really need money for that.

That's kind of what I'm was getting at.
But yea...it sucks to not have any one to care about you.
As a young man, its no big deal cuz you can always change that.

"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.
FEAR is doing the talking here.
Robert Greene's the 50th Law addresses this succinctly.
Realising and accepting that fundamentally you are alone in this world and at the end of the
day you can only truly rely on yourself. Sure, we build interdependent relationships in business and
in love; but everyone is at heart driven by their own self interest.
Acceptance of this should not be something to lament; it should be something that brings absolute freedom.
Ranger mike summed it up well.As an old guy,take my advice,and put yourself first.Live your life ! I wish I had back all the time and money I spent on women,as it got me nothing in life except money problems,stress,aggravation,and bull**** ! American women run (and ruin) your life !

I don't care. I'll be dead.
"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.

yeah, it's an American woman thing, we've been Genocided culturally. Other countries live normally because there's not much materialistically to suck away their souls.
