"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.

Even though i have a car i really enjoy walking around my neighborhood. My gym, the library, stores, bar/clubs are all within 10min from my apt. I'm kinda shy when it comes to girls and when a pretty chick would be walking towards me on the sidewalk i would usually look down or away. This got me nowhere with the ladies.

To overcome my shyness i made a promise to sy "Hello" to EVERY female i come across. This can be in the stores, at the park, gym, etc. The first few times i was nervous as hell plus many girls would just ignore me and not even look at me or anwer. Weird, but slowly i started to overcome my shyness by getting rejected and would now say "Hello, how's it going" to all the ladies. To my surprise quite a few actually would stop and answer that question. Then i would introduce myself and make small talk. This really works as i have a date on Friday. Me having a date NEVER happens.

"Hello, how's it going" that's all you need to say to break the ice with the girls.
 

"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.

I disagree... You have barely done anything at all for her to even use as a full first impression. You have PLENTY of time to still come off as more than "friend zone" material.

But of course, you need to make sure you do that. And he has a date, so apparently he has.

Good post, OP. Simple thing many people overlook.

That's pretty negative and not an issue (or true) at all. Good for you for starting to talk to girls and congrats on getting a date. Honestly there is a time and a place for being seductive and it may have not been the time or the place when he met that girl. It's fine to be casual & not too overt when you meet girls. Some of them prefer that kind of approach, and the lightness (lack of heavy - intensity of it) makes it easier for her justify meeting up.

GREAT JOB!!!!
 

"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.
