"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.

Dear Zecko,
What you describe is certainly not my experience...Women are hard wired to reject,the weak,infirm,handicapped,rejected...In this they are as vicious as any Wolf,who will turn on a badly injured comrade in some fight,and tear him to pieces...They are engined and gunned for one thing only,to raise the strongest offspring!

Were these chicks older than you?
No, right around my age at the time, 23-24ish.

The dating game is a bit different 30 years ago, Uncle zekko.

Nowadays, those young girls would have heard it all from their dozen male orbiters, plus all the exciting dramatic live updates on Facebook 24/7. In your time, having that kind of emotionally intimate contact with a male was rare compared to now.
This was 30 years ago. I did wonder if changes in the dating scene would have any effect. The biggest difference between then and now is the percentage of obese girls. There are so many fat women now that it has driven up the value of girl with decent figures. Apparently I'm still attracting girls in their 20s though, I'm somewhat surprised to say.

My question is this, how did it end with these girls?
Well, my memory's a little fuzzy, it's been awhile. I recall ending it with one of the girls because she wasn't my type. I think we just drifted apart as we moved on to other people. You know how young people are. None of these were any of the great loves of my life by any stretch.

That would be my expectation as well. However, I find that in the real world, people don't act quite so rigidly as their theoretical stereotypes.

The times were different back then, and the nurturing spirit hadn't yet been strangled by media ego-boosting.

Still, I'm going to test that tactic. Tomorrow I'm going to whine about Zekko's love life to several women. I'll report back my findings.
