"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.
Should Father's Day be rechristened "Special Person's Day" because it is offensive to single moms?

"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.

Sick, sick people. And they fight for "equality". So go ahead and replace mother's day with "special people's day"...no, no, you can;t do that. Just the males will be deemed and treated as disposable

I don't like any of these made up 'holidays'... Mother's Day, Father's Day, Grandparent's Day... Valentine's Day. I get national Holidays and Religious observance... but anything else is just stupid.
I have told my kids NEVER get me anything for Father's Day EVER.

"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.

No.

It's insane what the middle-aged to younger middle-class generations consider "issues" at the moment.
If you want to protest and whinge and try to change something, how about:
- Trying to get homeless people off the streets so they don't die of hypothermia?
- Why not campaign for more renewable energy (considering humanity doesn't even need oil for energy with present day tech)?
- How about taking issue with aggressive foreign policy that is essentially breeding world terrorism?
- What about female genital mutilation, where women get their cl*ts snipped off without their consent?
- Or Pakistan, where women get f*cking acid thrown in their face for not doing what they're told?
No, let's all whinge about "manspreading", "mansplaining" and "Father's Day" instead, because those are the issues that matter. Unbelievable.

People are so bloody used to living in luxury at the present that they've become horribly entitled and completely ignorant to true suffering and social issues.
