google planned parenthood.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
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.
Hahaha lil ray ray. Cracked me up big time xDTenacity said:I'm getting my "V" done most likely in October. Not creating kids and not getting married, which means I'm saving a SIGNIFICANT amount of money, time, energy and mental health/stress.
Life is hard enough, all you can do is PRAY for these people out here with kids in bad situations. Such as guys with kids they have to pay excessive child support for, that they rarely even get to see. Or for single mothers who fvcked Lil Ray Ray and had 3 of his kids, receiving no help from Lil Ray Ray to take care of such kids and having to spend the REST OF THEIR LIFE living in the ghetto.

Even after you do the Vasectomy procedure, it takes a little while for it to "kick in" so you would still have to wear condoms for a little while right after getting it done. But the reason you want one is because condoms have and do BREAK. Now, I have only had ONE condom break on me ever and that's because I was young and careless, using a condom that was way too small for my pe.nis size.SmooveMooves said:Is it that hard to be a responsible adult and simply use protection? I don't see the value in getting a Vasectomy. If you're having sex you'll still have to wear protection to dodge STDs. And then what if you change your mind...
Idk, seems like it's not worth it to shoot blanks
I'm with Aaron Clarey and I believe it's time to sit back and enjoy the decline. Let's face it, my Generation (the Millennial Generation) is going to be the last Generation to experience somewhat of a decent life here in the States before the massive shifts in the economy take over including Robotics replacing jobs, extreme Globalization, significant divides between the HAVES and the HAVE NOTS, etc.Desdinova said:Honestly, I'd love to see every guy on this forum have at least one child. It would help pave the way for a better future, instilling the values that we've learned about life through this place. Unfortunately, it's the mothers who prevent us from raising children that would better our future. The only way to combat this is to get the woman to opt out of raising the child.
Not a bad idea, but at my age I've missed my window. I certainly don't want to raise a child at my age. My father was 50 when I was conceived, and I have to admit he really didn't have the energy for it.Desdinova said:Honestly, I'd love to see every guy on this forum have at least one child.

Good point. Children often want to rebel against what their parents teach them, go out and try the opposite. They may return to it later, but kids are their own people, they're going to do what they want.piranha45 said:In addition, chances are strong that the child, upon reaching maturation and being able to think for itself, may not even agree with me and my methods, due to genetic variability overwhelming the nurture I provided in its youth. That would mark the child as a failure, from my perspective.
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.
I completely agree with this, however I think co-habiting with a woman *may* be mutually beneficial in your later years. My ex-father-in-law was with his girlfriend for about 15 years before they moved in together. At their age, they were retired and all the kids had grown up and moved out on their own. Also, after 15 years of just being bf/gf, that woman has proven her worth.Tenacity said:I actually like this structure of women just being "friends". It allows me to experience all of the BENEFITS of women (the entertainment, the sex and the companionship) without having to deal with the COSTS of women (the stress from being married to them, having kids with them, being partnered with them to where their bad financial management affects your financial standing, and being legally tied to them to where being with her is HELL but leaving could mean an even more significant financial setback).
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.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
