"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.

they are a bunch of angry little men. this forum is filled with them.

Meanwhile, the report, originally featured in the journal of Evolution and Human Behaviour, said taller men may be less jealous because male height is associated with attractiveness, dominance and reproductive success.

amen! thank god i come from a long line of tall good looking types. :yes:

Finally, scientific proof.

anyways I've come terms with my height. I know that I can't change and I'm comfortable with that. Honestly, it doesn't bother me at all that all men tower over me and that most girls are my height. There's no point in crying over it anymore...

I did give up on women though...I simply stopped caring about them anymore.

I guess I'm happier this way:up:

Thank God I am 5'11.5".

Yes, it is common knowledge that MOST men under 5'9" have a chip on their shoulder.

What's the point of this thread? The only thing the article says is that shorter people tend to be more jealous of members of the same sex.

He already told you. He's insecure, and thus made an attempt to seek validation from the rest of the forum by telling everyone that he's "tall and good-looking". He also criticizes the attributes of others in another attempt to feel better about himself, so I guess you could say it's a sort of "double-whammy" of compliment-seeking.
 

"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.

Lol, you know how sometimes you start writing a post, then leave to do something else... and then finish writing, click "post", and it says you're logged out, and all you wrote gets erased. WOW you gotta love it.

I wrote an elaborate scientific post explaining why this article is a useless piece of crap, so I won't rewrite it, ill just summarize it in a few words, ready?

Ald, your purpose in life is to try and make people insecure just so you can feel better about your pathetic self. You also like to brag a lot, and I could say "post a pic" as proof... or show me a facebook profile of you, etc... But no, relax I'm not asking you that because you are so fake you can't even indicate your location and age, something that simple. You piece of
sh1t.

It feels good to sit behind a computer sceen pretending to be someone else, and trying to bring other people down? Does it also feel good to be a self hating, ex-soviet jew. You were abused as a child alot? And now you are axpressing your anger in the most passive-aggressive form here on so-suave.

Congratulations, you little bytch.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I would be pissed to if I were short, because there is NOTHING you can do about it.

Want to know what it feels like? I am 6'0, but there is a 6'7" guy we have at work. Next to him I almost feel like less of a man. However, only like 1 in a 1000 men are 6'4" and over.

Now imagine being a 5'4-5'5" guy where MOST guys have 4 to 5 inches on you easily. You constantly have to look up to everyone (mostly men and even some women), people don't respect you as much or take you seriously and MOST women won't even look at you because of your height (even if you are handsome)

Wouldn't all of the above make you angry at the world? I sure would be....

I think there's a surgery that is able to add as much as 3 inches to height...anybody know what its called? I wanna do some research in it.
 

"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.

Poor you.

I'm 5'8". I have two friends who are 6'4" and 6'5". I always have a strong presence in any social setting with them. Or in hobbies, like sports - I run faster and I'm more agile - or dancing - very tall guys often look really awkward and uncoordinated. I also don't suffer from joint problems. I wouldn't exchange my height with theirs.

The key is to use your height effectively.

Bruce Lee was 5'7". He dominated everywhere he went because of his strong personality and charisma. Nobody thinks that he's just a 5'7" guy. If your height is all you have got going for you, that really sucks.

Yeah they do, but it costs like 60K and you have to take like a year off from work.

How tall are you?

That doesnt justify such anger, it just gives them an early grave. Im 6'4 so i dont have that problem. When theres someone taller than me i give them **** that i get for being tall in a joking way, so its cool. Being a short is one thing, but being short and an ******* makes it worse. Trying to prove to the world that youre a tough guy doesnt really work if youre bit size, it just makes you a deusche.

PS Jitterbug...5'8 isnt short. People who have the napolean complex are what most people would be referring to here...so no need to validate yourself.

I agree. I didn't say that 5'8" is short, but my 5'8" to my friends' 6'5" is a much bigger gap than aldaris' 6'0" to the other guy's 6'7", and yet I'm cool with mine, but he's insecure with his.

And yes, ALL the 20 something virgins on this board are under 5'9.

The guys I really feel sorry for are those under 5'5-5'6....they really can't do anything...or ever really be loved...I've never met a guy under 5'5/5'6 that's married, etc. And there's no where in the world they can go where they'll be a good height.
I have a friend who is 21, good looking and tall. He cannot pick up at all, never been laid or even kissed. Girls laugh at the idea of him being with another chick.

I have another friend 18 years old, about 5'6 and fat as fvck. This guy is a loud mofo and gets laid constantly by talent that most my friends would not be able to pull.
He is always making jokes about being a shorty and if a chick belittles him he will make a massive scene embarrassing her in the process (does it jokingly too).
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
