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.
I literally wouldn't take her back to date but would bang. But I do feel good knowing It doesn't make me feel bad anymore because my b!tch ass was miserable for awhile because of what she did. With that being said it is a good feeling knowing she wants me now. Even if she does which I really have no idea
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.
Its a nice feeling to know you have grown out of your old tastes. I'd be careful of banging her though; it can be like playing with fire
I know 100% I will not try and date but I would like to bang how do I go about that?
You don't. The only scenario where you guys end up having sex is when she comes all the way to your door and asks you to f*ck her hard. I'm telling you man, if you engage even just a little bit, you will get f*cked in turn. She will not only reject you, but also tell everybody about this. People will start forgiving her and see you as the damn beta you'll be.
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
I read that and I agree. I doubt she's gonna come to me to bang. Like I said I saw her on tinder. Then she got off it. So she got on for 1 day? Lol chick is messed up in the head. She prolly hates me because I said I never loved her
How do you know she got off of it?
I made a new one and she wasn't on it anymore ive seen her on it multiple different times which means she deletes gets on deletes etc
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.
Research every thread Ryan has ever started on here. Its like a needy AF broken record. You cant help him.
I can't let a brother fall into the abyss
I mean i didn't bow down to her or anything In person I handled it great to my defense
He is the abyss.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Bruh i get you like to talk **** I get it. But can you get out of my thread if your not gonna say something helpful or positive please and thanks
It's obvious what you did. You've merely survived with flesh wounds and internal bleeding if you ask me. If you keep thinking about women that way and afterwards unload your emotional blizzards here, you'll never learn and evolve into a better man.
I dk dude. As much as these guys are getting at you, I think there doing it just to give you the cold truth. This girl dumped you. The ball is completely in her court in regards to communication or initiating anything. You don’t do ****. Do not play her game at all. She has to be the one to come to you if that’s what you want. She’s doing all of this to illicit some sort of reaction from you. Don’t look to hard into it because girls do this **** ALL the time. My ex is doing it right now and I’m not changing my behavior or going out my way to interact with her at all. There’s literally nothing you can do in this situation. Just my two cents.
Perfect. Why is she trying to illicit some sort of behavior? I showed no emotion about liking her in person I told her I don't think i ever loved her and I'm glad she dumped me because it would of never of worked out. I mean we had good times so nostalgia hit me a bit. But other then that I am pretty proud of myself for how I acted
It’s for her own ego and mental state. Only she can answer that question. The more important question is why do you care when you tell us you don’t …
