Marc Rudov is right, too bad his message will fall on death ears.

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.
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.

I am pissed off that I am single on V-day. :trouble:STR8UP said:Who is glad they are single on V-day? Men are!
Who is miserable if they are single on V-day? Women!
Nuff said.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Im afraid that they can, " have their cake and eat it too..." as long as MOST men collude and collaborate in this scam. Women hijacked the double standard eons ago and exploited it to their advantage.dbot said:Sorry feminists, you can't have your cake and eat it too. It's only a matter of time before men stop putting up with the bullshit.
Thanks for the correction, although "Death" ears can also be used since only the dead will actually hear his message and those who are alive will simply act as if they are dead and do nothing. Most men will just sit there in front of the tv with their wives or girlfriends and bash this guy (in order to score points), even though deep down they know he is right.STR8UP said:Sorry to be a stickler, but it's "deaf" ears.
That said, watch the h0's gang up on the voice of reason.....
Women have an entitlement mentality, and the second you call them out they play the "who hurt you so bad that you would be so brave as to not fall into line as the other girly-men" card..
Since most single men are stuck in the AFC mentality, they are misreable.STR8UP said:Who is glad they are single on V-day? Men are!

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.

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.
Yeah I figured the W0manese (why the fvck is this word censored???) meant that. Initially she was the one hitting on me while I was still in the previous relationship and was very compliant on the 1st & 2nd dates (was cool with me getting my hands everywhere), but she got weird on the 3rd date at my place when I escalated. Ah well, who cares what's going on in that scheming, confused head of women!Mr. Me said:>> she BSed me about just getting out of a relationship & needing to slow it down >>
Which is womenspeak for "Hey, buddy, you're moving on me way too fast, and to be honest, I'm not that into you."
When a woman says "Slow it down" that's usally menas the end is near.
If she was way into you, she'd be hoping you'd rush things.
Jeffst1980 said:The problem with Marc Rudov is that he lacks the charisma to really effectively get his points across...especially in situations that are clear set-ups, like this one. He comes off as an angry, bitter dude that is absolutely no fun to be around. However, if you had someone with a charming personality up there that built some rapport first and thus approached the argument in a more effective manner, I'm sure the women would concede that Valentine's Day has gotten way too commercial and that it would be a better idea to set the phony chivalry aside and just spent quality time together.
