"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.

Actually, if I remember right, Van Gogh mailed the ear to a prostitute. And he had a brain disorder, which might have had something to do with it.
 

"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.

Was that an AFC thing to do, or a DJ thing to do? Why?
Tough call, and a number of questions must be answered before I make my decision:


1) Was Van Gogh making eye contact with the girl at the time he gave the ear to her?

2) Did he have an "I don't give a f*ck!" attitude whilst cutting his ear off?

3) Was he able to use some C&F later on in life to play down only having one ear?

4) Was he iniating KINO while showing her the ear?

5) Did he still think "he was the prize" afterwards?

What if he was gay and the prositute was transexual, when would it be a good time to call?????

I have a brain disorder and I'm not in pulling the chicks. I guess it's AFC to have a brain disorder :(.
 

“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.

Actually, it depends on the specific brain disorder. Generally speaking, people with APD or NPD (sociopaths) are top PUA's. So good in fact that they can be abusive and the women will stay with them, and some of them are even so good they can con women out of their life savings. Ted Bundy is another excellent example of a psychopath with top notch PUA skills. Of course, he used his skills to strangle women to death instead of to sleep with them like a normal PUA would.

This is the sweetest thread I've seen here in a while. :) :p :D
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

A true DJ doesn't contemplate if something is DJ or AFC, and the fact that Giovanni Casanova made this topic shows that he's AFC, and if you disagree with this statement, then you're also AFC, no doubt.

Read the bible.

He had more than enough absinthe when he did it, so he was probably pretty out of character when he cut off his ear (not that he wasn't strange enough ;))

I am such an AFC. Now does me agreeing with your statement make me AFC or DJ?

Hmmm.... I cannot rest until I know.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Even if he was a frustrated chump -- which it does appear he was much of the time -- he certainly couldn't be considered average.

Love the premise of this thread.
