"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.

Too smart?

So a couple months ago I began talking to a girl my friend had introduced me to. We continued talking for a while and eventually started dating. The thing that made me so interested in this girl is the fact that she is so smart, but not school smart. She just knows all the games guys play and it really shot my interest level up. She's one of those girls who "doesn't give you what you want" which I have never dealt with.

A couple weeks ago she started telling me that she felt like I was more into the relationship than she was... This really confused/pissed me off. I straight up told her to call me when she knows what she wants but that just led her to saying," I want to be with you." later the next day she apologized and said she felt stupid because of how things panned out. Has anyone dealt with this before?

We are still together and she definitely has more interest in me after that day, but she does one thing that is so simple yet so confusing at the same time. This girl constantly tells me that she hates me... But she isn't serious. She says it means something but I will have to catch on on my own. She usually does it when we are laying down. I know that it's childish, but it really intrigues me for some reason. Any ideas?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Question is: does it even matter? I think not. If you feel like you're losing control, just invest less in the relationship or something. Not my strong side.

You could be right. I will invest less. One thing I'm thinking is that maybe she is scared due to the fact that her little games don't work as well as she would like on me.
