"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.

banged this colleague October last year but nothing developed from it due to her needy, creepy behaviour. She left in January but still does the occasional overtime shift. She put herself on to work with me this weekend to which I said I was not comfortable with so management cancelled. She's now making an official complaint against me. My point is if you had screened her this is what you would have found:

Intelligent
Beautiful
30
Educated to degree level in psychology
From a stable family
Parents still together
No tattooes
Not a big drinker
No drugs
In full time employment

In other words ticks the right boxes. Just goes to show you just can't tell.
 

"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.

Some food for thought.

I know this girl, she studies psychology. One eve we sat down to drink with her and her brother. On the 3rd drink I asked:

"Why do you study psychology." (expecting something along the lines of "to help people and cure them" or whatever)

"To learn how to manipulate men better" was her immediate response


On the 5th drink I asked her again:

"So you study psychology to manipulate men better?"

"Well that too, but mostly to learn how to make myself better"

I find it highly ironic that this girl studied psychology and yet has no clue about attraction or how it works. Just goes to show the sh1t they teach has no bearing on the real world.

Great thread. The mistake was in dating a colleague, specifically BECAUSE you can't screen 100% (despite what newbies on here say)
Well I thought working with someone everyday would be perfect screening. Although I knew there was something about this girl. Has no game or banter whatsoever.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Your post showed no indication she is stalking you, just looks like she wanted some over time.

She left the department for a better paid position in January.

There's a reason SS preaches NO DATING COWORKERS!

They can fvck with your career and future. One word "Rape!" will have you fvcked over, possibly fired, possibly arrested, etc. It's turning into a female-first, ask questions later world. Sigh.
Luckily I'm sleeping with the deputy manager who's assured me everything will be alright.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

"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.

Still hurting from that sh1t test I gave you huh?

The best way to ease the pain is to let that which hurts you go.

The best way to let things go is to stop thinking about or interacting with that which hurts you. Hope this helps.
