"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

So this study showed that the best gender ratio for men on OLD is in America, where "only" 73% of profiles are male. By contrast in France 81% of profiles are male, in Britain it's 85%, Spain 87% and Italy 91% (I think this is also before accounting for fake profiles but I haven't checked if they did that or not, just saw the graph in a youtube video and the study link).

This makes me ask some questions:

1 - Assuming women are meeting men irl, how are they meeting men?
2 - If women are meeting men irl, why are such comparably vast numbers of men online but only a tiny number of women? are women meeting only a small minority of men irl?
-- Or are women actually not meeting men anywhere, but they are more content to live in celibacy rather than use OLD while men are willing to use OLD?
--- Or is it that men and women are both meeting in reality, but women delete their apps while meeting someone while men stay on the apps while meeting someone?

What do you guys think?
 

"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.

I think women have men throwing themselves at them all the time so why would they want to use OLD to meet total strangers? A decent looking guy goes into a bar and nothing happens. A decent looking woman goes into a bar and she's going to get lots of male attention. Change "bar" to club, work, grocery store, gas station and pretty much any other social setting and you'll see why very few women of quality have to lower themselves to the level of OLD.
