"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.

I couldnt believe my eyes. That author is advocating asking a woman "Why did you say yes to going out with me?"

His advice is really really awful.

NEVER ask a woman that. Because it reveals insecurity.

Woman HATE insecurity.

By the way, I actually DID ask a woman a variation on that before, along the lines of "so are you attracted to me like im attracted to you?"

Totally backfired. Never had another date.

See, youre supposed to be SO CONFIDENT that you ASSUME the woman is attracted. You dont have to ask why.

Its like fishing.

Its the worst advice ive seen on here.

As a matter of fact i never even ASK a woman EVER if she likes me. And I DONT TELL HER either.

A huge part of the game is that you actually "GET IT".

Get it that it is unspoken.

The minute you start blabbing **** about "do you like me" the game is over. Challenge gone.

If anything LET HER TELL YOU SHE LIKES YOU. By herself.

Then give a smile like you knew it all along.

And DONT tell her the same thing. Make her wait it out.
 

"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.

RE:

I would never ask why me because to me it sets off a red flag. Imagine if you got a good job and then you say to the employer "really?!!!! Why me?!!! Awesome!!!" He's going to be like uh oh! What is wrong with this guy. One thing I do ask about carefully is what happened with the last guy (and maybe the guy before that) trying to figure out where he went wrong and what he did to screw it up but I do it very cautiously.

"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.

Well, that certianly isn't the way to say it. All she's going to hear is you saying you like her (before she considers thinking about why she said yes to a date).

I agree, the "why me" tip is garbage. It puts her in the frame of being the prize.

Asking "why me" implies the metaframe: "a lot of guys want you, since you are hot... why did you choose me, since obviously I can't see why a queen like you would choose a nobody like me."

GARBAGE. For those who don't know, this is on sosuave.com's home page currently.

If you have a response to a tip, reply to that thread. Future threads created solely in response to one thread will be deleted instead of closed.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
