"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.

It seems like every time I have sex, especially someone new, I get paranoid for the next few days because of fear that I may have got them pregnant. The deal is though, I've always used a condom, and have never had unprotected in my life. Condom has also never busted, it did slide off once, but it wasn't far and she was on top so its pretty much impossible. But still in the back of my mind I can't help but think that theres always a possibility. I guess my main thing is that I know i would definitly not be ready for a kid at this age and because I go to school and that would totally dik me over. Anyone else ever get like this.
 

"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.

Hm, I've always felt safe with one. If you put one on correctly, you don't have a whole lot to worry about. You can always double-bag it next time!

ha, they are the normal size condoms, i guess she was just riding it too hard, and because we kept goin for a little bit after i busted. Not a good idea. Not to mention she said afterward that she is on birth control. I just always think of the one in a million chance happenign to me. Oh well i'll be fine.
 

"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.

No, no, no - do not double bag it!

Breakage is more likely when using two.

ya she is on birth control to regulate her period. I should have nothing to worry about. I just think too much.

this frequently happens to me as well. i always seem to be a bit nervous until she gets her period. And by nervous i mean punching her continuosly in the stomach. in all honesty, things are fine, condoms are 99.9% effective and the pill is 99.9% too, if you get her pregnant, play the lottery for me later.
