"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.

Ok I'll try and keep this as short as possible. Basically been seeing this chick for about 5 weeks now, we get on really well, have great sex and the shes definetly long term material (or so I though).

Shes mentioned a few times that she was in a bad relationship last year (shes been single for 6 months), straight away this set alarm bells ringing as shes mentioned her past relationship far too much for my liking but it did geniunely seem that she was over him and didnt want anything more to do with him. As far I as was concerned she had no contact with him.

Fast forward to tonight. We're sitting in hers when her phone rings and she answers in a rather rude tone to whoever it was. She was rather unsettled and angry after the phone call but didnt speak about it. Anyway during the course of the next few hours she receives another two calls, she speaks rudely again and tells the caller bascially to f**k off.

Anyway as im about to leave we're kissing on her doorstep and she wishes me goodnight as I leave I see a car pull up outside her house. I think nothing of it as it could of been one of her flatmates friends or something.

An hour later I get a call of this girl, shes sobbing. Turns out it was ex bf who has been waiting outside her house, he'd seen her with me and waited till Id left then forced his way into her flat, slapped her in the face and bascially went mad shouting at her. Her flatmate rang the police and he left. This girl gave a statement to the police and told them her ex's address, the police told her they would arrest him and he if he comes to her flat again they will arrest him again.

Now obviously straight away I though, ditch this chick and get the hell outta this situation but after speaking to her im not so sure. On the one hand she appears to have been truthful with me and Im pretty sure she hasnt been seeing her ex (she lives with a mutual friend of mine) and that the whole letters needed by him for tax purposes was genuine. On the other hand im thinking that she hasnt completely washed her hands of him and hes still lurking around in the background (e.g. he knew about me because she had told him), despite her telling me otherwise.

What you guys think? Should I run for the hills or carry on and see how it pans out?
 

"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.

why did she answer the phone?

Sorry dude, even if she is totally innocent in this situation, it doesn't mean the ex-bf won't come after you next time. I would tread very carefully and be prepared for more drama.

She should be getting a restraining order.

It could be something like "leave me alone you creep! I'm seeing someone else, you're no longer my boyfriend and... so on"

Is there risk to you and how much? Is there a huge investment on your part? So far it seems the girl handled the situation well.

I don't see the issue.

Money post right here.

She doesn't have to answer the phone. She did.
He comes by to her apartment, forces his way in and physically abuses her?

Want that to be YOU next time? You got off THIS time. But what if you were inside and he came in? What then?

And the fact that she KEEPS bringing it up is a HUGE red flag.
I think she likes the kind of chaos he brings into her life.

Look, relationships are difficult enough already to deal with that you'd have to add a 3rd element into the mix and make it even MORE difficult...... AFTER ONLY 5 WEEKS.

I'd get out... and NOW. I don't care what kind of victim role she is playing, but if after 5 weeks you have this much drama, do you possibly think it's going to get ANY better anytime soon???
