"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's a good Birthday present for a girl you like?

"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.

make a shirt or a sign that says "I am the gift" and just walk up to her and give her a hug.
I did this to a girl and not only did we end up going on a couple of dates, but both her and everyone there laughed really hard which led to props from the guys and all the girls talkin' about it while giggling.
It is also cheap and very original.

If you can... do a "Oh since its your birthday you get to hang out with me." type comment, kind of makes you the prize.
as for the gift... NO ROSES, NO $300 GLASSES, get her a funny birthday card...
I got one that said "You're turning 8 today" to a 19 year old girl and she loved it.
and maybe get her something funny and say it reminded you of her like those keychains that when you squeeze them brown stuff comes out. =D

"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.

Your best friend - yes. And if you want to be a friend - yes. If you want to hook up with her, set yourself apart from the friend (who buys a nice gift) and make her laugh. If you do a good job with it, like others here have suggested, than she will walk away with a smile on her face thinking about you and at the end of the day you end up in a better place than the chumps who shelled out a couple of dollars for a CD she probably already has or soemthing else.Noob said:

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

do you want her to fvck you or dane cook?
Just give her a dope drawing that you did in a boring History class. Make sure it's funny. Be spontaneous and thoughtful, but don't go far out of your way. You're a busy man, and as cute as she is, you aren't at the point in the relationship where you can afford to spend any significant amount of time or money on her, unless it's in doing something (ie. a date), and even then, don't go overboard on cash.
