"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.

Not sure how many have seen this but this guy definitely conducted himself very well as well as the reporter.
You could see the initial fear by the anchor woman and the reporter as he was approaching initially. But the guy got out his message effectively in a non-confrontational manner. He then told everyone that can relate that he has a family. I just felt this guy did a good and effective job at getting his communication across. It has nothing to do with girls but but I think he exemplifies how guys should conduct themselves and act. Be stern but fair.

 

"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.

Yup. Except for the surface contact part. That is not the problem. It's airborne and that's why his restaurant needs to limit seating...or close.

Yet you see alcohol, sanitizers, wipes sold out everywhere...

I'm not even allowed to sign my credit card receipts anymore. It's either contactless or they give me a new sanitized pen from the new jar...

I have no problem with people washing and sanitizing their hands more. It was a good idea before and will continue to be one. If people want to stop handshaking I'm all for it as well.

But it's not going to stop COVID. Only nature is going to do that I guess.
 

"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.

I'd better get my comment in here before a mod decides to lock this posting and future conversation within.

I'm glad this video was shared.
We are now in an era of normally only receiving one side of a story. The reporter deserves credit as well - for encouraging a point of view that didn't necessarily seem to mirror the news story narrative.
I miss the days when balanced reporting and journalism was the standard.
