"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.

Often, I find myself sprinkling just a tiny dab of confident humor and teasing from the start, then building plenty of connections and social panache to get the date or approach moving in the right direction. How much confident humor/teasing do you use throughout the date or approach?
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

None if I'm trying to get laid. C0cky/funny, yes. You need to be willing to be provocative and roguish, overtly willing to push up against (but not cross) boundaries. Merely being confident won't accomplish this.

The difference between c0cky/funny and confident/funny is the difference between Richard Pryor and Bob Saget.

Nobody liked Bob Saget until he started telling dirty jokes.

Im considering that a red flag.
If a man has that attitude, its a red flag
(****y funny)

Also, do examples of a dialogue if you need to explain what do you think being ****y funny vs confident funny is, so we better enter your pov
 

"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.

Yet, he made his millions on Full House and HIMYM
And he was mainly known for that warm hearted wholesome stuff. Which made it all the more surprising when you saw his act.

Start off being a bit grey...then slowly reveal a bit more of the humour as time goes on and she reveals her personality too.

Chatted to a gym girl today and the least-grey thing I said after was she asked me name. (Not posting my name on here, I said something like "my name's Simon, but you can call me Si"
