Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

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.

She is richer. Will she respect me?

Hello DJs,

It's not a real story. But it's something I'm thinking of. What happen often
in my country is that when the woman is richer, she doesn't respect the
man.

I'm trying to assure myself that, using all DJ's techniques would get rid of
the money problem. But is it true? Is it possible to live with a woman who
has a better paying job, and make her respect you?

Opinions wanted, thanks
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

First of all where do you live. Second of all money will not do anything for you with a girl. In the short run yes, but in long run no. I don't care if ur richer than bill gates if a woman marries u only for money she will never respect u and something will always be missing in relationship.

Why should money an issue?

Be upfront about what you have, as far as money is concerned, and it shouldn't become an issue. So what if she makes more then you. One thing is for sure, you don't want to get into a relationship where you, or the woman become entirely dependent on each other for finances.

Besides, if she's richer, that means there is no way she can be a gold digger. A gold digger might be fun for a night or two, but would backfire in the longrun.

Having a better paying job is NOT the same as being "richer".
 

"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've dated someone who is much richer than me. First, I don't make a big deal of it. Second, it's a test on her, can she be a good friend, encouraging, respectful, etc.. given she has cash? If so.. cool. If not, my lot is not better off if I keep her around. Recommend you stick to what you are looking for in a companion, and continue to look for that from any rich or non-rich woman.

Have you thought of the case you are invited to a party with her co-workers??
By rich, I mean really, really rich. Millionaire. These people act and do different things all the time...

Man make the money, money never made the man. Even if you do have more money, you need to let these chicks no that they should only worry about you, and let you worry about your money. If she's too good to respect you then dont waste time on her. Respect is everything.

"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.

It'll only be an issue if you use money as a measurment of your self worth.

Better question is
"She is richer, do I respect myself?"

Props to Francisco.. it's a non-issue. If she makes it an issue, then I'd make her behavior the issue.
