"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.

Everyone in here is always complaining that they're not tall enough, or good looking enough. Tough.

At least you can look in the mirror to see your average face or shorter stature.

You wanna know what would really suck? Being blind. Not being able to see a damn thing in this world. Then you can say you haven't had a fair shake.

So remember, everytime you cry about how unfair life is, always remember that there are people who have it far worse than you.

Go tell a blind person about how it sucks being short.

Ingrates.
 

"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.

Its hard to define problems like this. Sure, life could be alot worse but that dosent mean the emotinal self knows the difference. This is like telling someone who's father just died "atleast you still have your mom."

Its hard to put pain in perspective because the only pain you can truly feel is your own.

I believe one should always look at the positives. For being blind, the positive is that it doesn't matter how good looking the girl is - you can't see her. This opens up a whole new world of women who are otherwise great, but just induce the gag reflex when looked at.

Yeah yeah we've heard the sh1t all before.

People starving in Africa getting high on methane from their own fecal matter to take away the pain...

yeah yeah.

Its all relative. Stupid thread.
 

"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.

And yet you still blindly ignore this point and continue whining. Good work.

No one gives a damn about that, all that people feel from their own individual perspective is that their plight isn't acknowledged and taken care of enough, and the first thing they hate more than anything else is to be moralized or talked condescendingly, or being told what to do by anyone, that this person's woes is worth more than them. They don't worry about any stranger's plight, only about saving their own skin. Any pain only exists if they directly feel it themselves.

Everyone else in the world could spontaneously blow up and as long as it wouldn't affect their own little world people still wouldn't give a flying ****.

Agree. I have a blind teacher, completely blind, and Ive always respected him so much because I know how hard it can be, yet he still controls a full classroom. One day im going to blindfold myself and go a day blind, in my house ofcourse
