Check out the poll, it's as simple as that. Be sure to leave feedback. Thanks, guys.
"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.
Who do you usually trust to set you up on dates other than yourself and why?

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Only myself. Pretty simple reasoning too...i'd like to control my own destiny, not have someone else do so. Plus, it doesn't exactly help your confidence if someone else is arranging dates for you IMO (since you wouldn't be earning the dates exactly).

If I'm going out, it will be of the girl of my chosing. I want to use my game to attract her and set up the date. It gets my confidence up. Getting set up kinda makes the night awkward cause all you're really talking about is how you know the middle man that set you up. I like having my own destiny in the palm of my hands. If I crash and burn, I want it to be on my own terms.

Damn, and you're from New Orleans too?! I miss eating that damn crawfish on Sundays! I'm gettin' hungry just thinking about it!CP3WOO said:
All in all, to everybody, very marvelous logic. I definitely will just keep trusting myself. Getting somebody else in can kill attraction between you and the girl...
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I don't trust anyone.
However, if I've been committed to a date already by someone else, damn right I'm going to show up and hit it out of the park (unless ugly).
