"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.

Scottie Pippen's peepee costs him half of his NBA retirement

"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.

Scottie Pippen is a tragic case. His case has similarities right now to Anthony Bourdain. Bourdain was cheated on and so was Pippen.

Pippen's divorce was partially caused by his wife's infidelity.

After the divorce, Pippen's ex-wife then starts having sex with his former co-worker's son. That's insulting.

Pippen's behavior has been erratic lately. Many people wonder if he's using drugs or alcohol to deal with the trauma. Look at his ridiculous, age inappropriate haircut for a late 50s man.


Compare that to his haircuts from his playing days, which were conventional....


Pippen's oldest child from his 1988-1990 early career marriage also died in 2021 and it's clear that Pippen is traumatized from the death of his child.

It's worse than that, he can't get over being underpaid when he was playing, and he now thinks Michael Jordan sucked.

I hope Michael Jordan realizes that Scottie Pippen is totally f'ed up right now and nothing he says is relevant in any way.

I am one of the people who believes Pippen is using and abusing drugs/alcohol right now.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Even if he was clean, he's got mental issues

With the way the game was played when he was active, I don't know if you can rule out CTE.

Will there be a "Save Scotty" Go Fund Me in about 5 years or so?

There have yet to be major instances of CTE related to professional basketball players. I've yet to hear of one case related to it. I would not rule it out either.


It doesn't look like Pippen got hit in the head on this one....
