"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.

Ok the other day me and my buddy were at a club. There were a few good looking women around, mostly in there little groups with there friends.

I am the kind of guy that will cold approach. Doesn't mean it always works out, but I always try to cold approach. So I talked to a couple of girls, nothing really spectacular and the whole time I was talking I noticed my buddy was sitting over there on his stool not saying a word.

He was just nursing his beer minding his own business. So I asked him why he wasn't talking to any girls.

He told me that it is "better to remain silent and thought a fool, then to open it and remove all doubt."

What do you think of this?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

That's a famous quote (Hemmingway or Twain maybey?)
Anyway, it's completley ridiculous to apply it to the pick-up scene.

Unless everything you say makes you sound like a fool.

The only way you are going to forge yourself into something other than a fool in a social arena, is by getting out and playing the field. That quote sounds like a pathetic excuse covered in chocolate.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Only a fool would use a quote like that to make it seem like he isn't a fool.

I got a better quote for your friend:

"Better to have tried and failed than to never have tried at all, for we learn best from our mistakes."

He's using that quote as a buffer to avoid feeling rejected.
:up:

Plus he was using the quote out of context.
