"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.

Been texting this girl about the date tomorrow. Going for lunch at 12:30, but I've been sending long texts, making her feel like she knows me. She's cute as hell. I'm still out of her league but no biggie, we'll see where things go.

Also been drinking with my sister tonight, so don't trust the things I say. Here are some text excerpts, I have decent text game so maybe you'll get something out of it.

Her: hey it's megan :) (first ever text off her! woo!)
Me: Hi! Im picking the restaurant, but where do you live, so I know what area?
Conversation continued. Talking about the party we met at. I ended and said good night.

Her: sorry I fell asleep.. but good morning :)
Me: Sorry my phones been off! Way to text me good morning at 1230. Having a good day?
Her: it's cool :) 12:30 was morning! haha. it's been goood. what about you?
Me: Um its been good... Working on my hobbies, and who doesnt like a productive day, i guess
Her: productive is good! what kind of hobbies?
Me: I collect stamps (she at least knows that I rap too)
Me: Also locks of hair from famous people
Her: That's cool! Whos hair do you have?
Me: Hahaha oh i dunno. A few dozen people. Already saved a spot for you between jessica alba and megan fox. Its alphabetical, now all you gotta do is get famous (her last name starts with c)

We played around after that. I have plenty of hobbies to talk about, so I figured I'd joke rather than brag.

Post some of your text game! Let's get some discussion going!
And don't be afraid to text your girls, get to know them!
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
