"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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"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.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

1. women who go to bars/clubs and think virtually every guy there is a chump who is not good enough for her.... as if she's automatically above the guys there
2. it's been covered many times before here, I know, but... women who ask for drinks... just don't do it! Any woman who asks you to buy her a drink is more interested in the drink than she is in you!
3. too many piercings or tattoos... maybe this is an age/generational thing(?)
-Women who depend solely on the outside beauty, you know, the type who never says a word and just smiles and thinks she's better than you.
-Stupidity (Jessica Simpson)
-Eyes focus on the ground and doesn't make eye-contact with anyone.
-Bad breath
-Neglected feet
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

What's that? I'm not familiar.Originally posted by il_duce

Is it new-age slang?
Turn offs to me:
1) Women who aren't my race (I'm not racist that's just how I am).
2) Women who get sloppy drunk very often (drinking is OK, just don't get sloppy drunk).
3) Extremely prude/ goody-two-shoes women (generally, those who think drinking, partying, sex before marriage, other drugs, or even tobacco or staying up late are bad and evil things).
4) Women who cuss every other word, or so it seems (everyone cusses, but it's very possible to cuss too much)
5) Extremely religious and devout women.
6) Women who aren't at least an "8" in looks (I know looks aren't everything but I have to be physically attracted to her).
7) "Goth," (what does "goth" mean anyway??) or "alternative"-type women.
8) Women who tell people things like "Eww...you smoke," or "you drink so therefore you're evil." I realize that I just repeated myself (see #3) but I felt like saying it again in a different way.
9) Women who don't have at least one car/motorcycle/some type of motorized transport.
10) Women who want a sugar daddy (I'm not exactly one now, but it might happen later).
11) Women who don't use make-up, do their nails, or even do their hair. There's not much excuse to not try to look your best, I don't think.

Personality: Attention-seeking, manipulative, moody, that "dead" look, belching, smoking, and the ones who try to kill you
