"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.

What do you do for a tan during the winter?

Hey, I've noticed my tan from the summer's been fading a lot recently (which means soon I'll be quite pale :(). Does anyone have any advice on what to do? Is it still possible to get a tan during the colder months when it's not so sunny but still a clear day?

I'm only really concerned about my face and I'd rather not consider sun beds because of health risks. Any help appreciated :)
 

"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.

"Build a tan" type self-tanners. Without them I would look like the living dead.

Tans in winter are like wearing black socks with shorts something just seems off about it. I wouldn't keep a constant tan or people will look at you funny.

But yes, you can still get a tan on a clear day. Even better go on holiday to somewhere nice and warm.

I like Neutrogena Build a Tan

http://www.drugstore.com/qxp86939_333181_sespider/neutrogena/build_a_tan.htm

$10 and it should last for a few weeks just using it on your arms and head like I do.

And I disagree that a tan looks odd in the winter. Even though I live in Florida I would still use this to at least give a bit of color. You don't wanna look like an oompa-loompa, but a touch of color keeps a person looking healthy.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.
