"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.

May this be helpful to other men who are here now and those who will come later.

During the initial stages of "monkey-branching," I observed how women’s reactions to specific traits of your personality would shift.
For instance, suppose she did you a favor: normally, you might make a playful remark (which would make her laugh) and then immediately follow up with a sincere "thank you." However, during the devaluation phase, instead of laughing, she would start attacking you.
This is just a small example of how the woman you thought was your most loyal and wonderful girlfriend controls and alters her reactions based on her own agenda, rather than simply laughing because you genuinely made her laugh.


In the stories of those two people that I don't want to mention their name, there were certain things that annoyed their partners but were usually laughed off.
For example, the first, let's call him John, was a bit forgetful, always leaving behind his wallet, umbrella, or other items, and his girlfriend would always tell him how cute and absent-minded he was.
The other person, let's call it Mike, on the other hand, could be a bit of a jerk when his girlfriend cooked; instead of just thanking her, he’d give her a hard time with comments like, "Oh, you put way too much salt in this... tell the truth, you were trying to kill me slowly, right?",said jokingly, before eventually thanking her sincerely.
Or, another thing about MIke it's when she was asking him something, and he would explode with raising his voice, but telling a joke about her, instead of replying to her. She had always laugh to that.

That said, during the "monkey-branching" episodes, both women got absolutely furious over these same small quirks and flaws, telling the men they were acting like children or in Mike scenario, instead of laughing, she would now tell him that those outburst were toxic and that was an immature behaviuor.

Ultimately, my John girlfriend failed in her attempt to monkey-branch, whereas Mike's one cheated, and he left her. I’ve watched John girlfriend change from one way of being to another, and then revert to the way she was before.
And it’s truly impossible to tell whether she’s being genuine and sincere, or if she’s just putting on an act.
It’s honestly impossible to know.

P.S. I spoke to my John about the possibility that respect for his relationship might have been lost, but he told me that everything has gone back to how it was, and that things are going great now. He still don't know if she cheated on him, but he says how she is now reacting as she was before
 

“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.

Well...when you get more experience you'll learn that there are TIME MARKS that generally speaking are applicable to most new relationships. 3 , 6 , 12 months for example.

A lotta people/ women simply are great at disguising their true nature. Compare it pretending like you can run a marathon. You can pretend to be a runner for..1? 2 ? 3 miles? But sooner or later you can't pretend anymore.

On top of all this never forget; women will project a FANTASY about you. That fantasy might contain sooo much more than you can imagine. She can fantasize that you accept her bs for example...she can have a made up scenario in her mind where you supposed to act / react a certain way...wear certain close , look out of your eyes a certain way ect. All small details that will compound.

After a while( 3 ,6 ,12 months) you might've shown so much that didn't along with her fantasy that you simply became UNATTRACTIVE to her PLUS in the mean time a NEW fantasy dude showed up. Now she gotta get rid of you , and your value in her eyes plummeted thus she act disrespectful because it doesn't matter anymore whether you do or dont view her as a high value woman..

Monogamy, when not executed deftly, can be the equivalent of spending a few months in which the only music one listens to is from a single artist. Everything we once admired about that artist is likely to seem rote and dull
