"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.

“The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true.”

WHY DOES IT MATTER

HOW DOES IT AFFECT YOU

I’ve seen this recently in my personal life with people who are surrounding me at the work place, gym, university etc.

WHY and HOW does another persons happiness affect you. Why do you care if someone likes a fat girl, or a skinny girl, or a girl you think is a 6. If they like her,him, that thing etc. WHATEVER it is, why do you, I, or anyone else care. Why does everyone have to conform to your standards. Why can’t someone be happy driving a Toyota Corolla without having another individual say yeah you drive a Toyota but I drive a Benz.

Does the happiness of others threaten you

WHY

DOES

IT

MATTER

Only back for my end of the year report. Stay tuned for that one
 

"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.

It’s why I prefer realism vs. optimism and pessimism…
Realists accept the facts as they are. A true logical mindset. The other two involve ego and emotion.

Hehehe ego was y Epicurus justified being back. Sneaky mofo mine gets me all the time. Assumptions are also the bastard children of ego. We assume somebody is with us or against us. Either are unhelpful filters.
 

"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.

It doesn't matter.

Ever hear this saying: "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people"
