"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.

Didn't see any posts on here about this, what do you guys think about this situation? I say the entire leadership needs to step down, the entire situation is just grossly irresponsible.
 

"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.

Agreed. No excuse to allow something of this magnitude to occur. Some jobs have room for error but care of a city's water supply would not be one of them.

This reminds me of the Gulf oil spill. Everyone is angry and looking to blame someone, but there is really no one to blame. It is simply a huge accident. They'll learn from it, and that mistake won't be made again, just as in the deep water drilling.

It's absolutely disgusting and annoying. Everyone from the governor to the city officials have a share of the blame to take. If this were to happen in a more affluent city, heads would roll.

Detroit as an entirety is a disgrace. Something has to be done. A city can't be THAT bad forever can it?

The movie was about the true case of erin brockivach. She sued and won. Now she's a huge advocate for others. Look her up on social media. She broke this flint mi story almost a year ago. Why didn't anyone listen?
