too bad you guys still dont understand that Mystery acting the way he did IS HIS OWN NATURAL GAME
"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.
Why Mystery has so much success
- Thread starter AFC Savior
- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

That's the problem. It's his own. Just cuz it works for him naturally, doesn't mean it'll work for someone else naturally.

you dont think Mystery was having fun there?
"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.

Try to look past how he does what he does and look at what he is doing and try to understand why he's doing it.DonJoseCantosie said:That's the problem. It's his own. Just cuz it works for him naturally, doesn't mean it'll work for someone else naturally.

lol @ this thread...
Why does everything have to be considered stage and why does everyone have something negative to say. I didn't see anything wrong with that whole set. He actually plowed it well.
The chick isn't giggling and jumping all over the place because he doesn't really use buying temperature based game. This guy sucks chicks into his reality because he is intriguing.
This set was well done, and you can tell he is very calibrated.
While I don't like MM because of a few flaws, I still respect Mystery. Behind all the marketing hype, his fame, whatever, the man has game period.
There is alot of subtle stuff going on. It's around 50secs that she basically starts settling in the set.
Overall I like this one...

why mystery sounds gay?

Ahhh! Mystery Method, believe it or not, isn't about routines. It's just based on the idea that women respond to social value as much, if not more, than they do looks. When Mystery Method is done right, you're the coolest guy in the entire bar, even if you'll have lots of haters who say you sound like a nasal chick or w/e. Mystery is a friggin genius, though, and what he says about social value is really spot on.
Neil Strauss is just the perfect example. He has a nasal voice, he's actually more effeminate, yet the guy gets some pretty hot chicks (yes, I know Leveridge divorced him, but he also banged her, so stfu player-haters). It's not cause of his looks, but the fact that he knows how to present himself as a socially valuable individual. Women want to marry up on the social scale, NOT down on the social scale.
Are women sexually attracted to men who are higher in social value? Debatable. Some women marry rich wall-street dudes and bang their pool-boys. Do women want to be around guys who are interesting? Duh.
I think people just hate Mystery Method because they don't really understand what point he's trying to get across.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Good approach, but not good example for the new guys like me, cuz the stuck up bytch was obviously not choosin, enough said.
p.s. why are you guys arguing whether its fake or not? Open ur eyes: look at the guy closer to the camera: another guy tries to move him with his hand like 3-4 times as if to say "stop blocking the camera" wow.

It's not rocket science.
Make yourself as hot as possible. Wear a suit that makes you stand out. Work out 5x a week. Get a haircut and maybe some facial hair that makes you look more masculine. Get a tan, too.
After that go into a club and just start talking to a chick, don't compliment her and ask her about her life and voila, you can take her home.

Lol Chris, notice how mystery has none of these: probably does not work out, isnt tan, doesnt look masculine, dressed like a parrot... this n!gga look like he just escaped from the zoo... but hey hes doing his thing so good for him
"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.

What did Mystery do out of all of that other than wearing a koala on his head in order to stand out?ChrizZ said:

That was apparent but ChrizZ said that all you need to do is "Make yourself as hot as possible. Wear a suit that makes you stand out. Work out 5x a week. Get a haircut and maybe some facial hair that makes you look more masculine. Get a tan, too..." And Mystery didn't do any of those things.Evolution said:
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
