"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Women are monogamous.
They are faithful to only one man at a time.
Women are not hypergamous.
But this can happen:
While she's already in a relationship with someone, and she feels "special" in the presence of another man, she becomes "hypergamous."

Perhaps his beauty, height, money, or status can make her rationalize the fact that she "feels good" in the presence of this man.
But that's not all.

Beyond all this, the man she feels "best" with, becomes her monogamous choice.
Women make an investment.
For us men, it's different.

I'd like to talk more about this "making her feel good."
I think it's very much about how you make others feel, not just women.
These are qualities you possess to make others feel appreciated, heard, and seen.
 

"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.

@jhonny9546 "i think it's very much about how you make others feel, not just women"

Bingo!!!

Insofar as this hypergamy talk goes: A man pursues high-paying employment and greater access to resources for HIMSELF, first and foremost. Women are just a byproduct of achieving those goals. Unless a broad puts a entire clip .45 into your chest then refers to that as "a break-up", life still has to go on, after she/they depart

Id like to believe that it really depends on the culture or in a lot of cases, environment where the women is from and where she's situated to be the case. Chances are you need to learn the art of screening for a good quality woman and this type of drama would not occur in the relationship in the first place. The Art of screening is something we should all be talking about more often in here.

Okay.

Explain what's the process of screening. Imo it's actually the exact opposite; everyone is saying you should screen better but imo it's just buzzwords.

People ( women are People surprisingly I know) can change. Overnight. On top of that everyone has his / her representatives that rather show up than the " real busted version" of themselves.
So how you gonna screen? Aks her if she has a good relationship with papa? And then it's all good?

Finally: a fat ugly woman can and sometimes will be the best woman you can have, BUT she will most definitely do all she can to make sure you won't have the ability to chase some young fine tail...She'll know she's fat and has excuses, but she will definitely keep you away from the market. And she mohjr compensate by making you sandwiches in the morning for work....whoopdie dooh...
 

"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.

There’s a wise quote from Pook, you can tell a lot about a woman’s character by how she treats those who can do nothing for her. You want to vet a woman’s character during times when they’re faced with challenges, boredom or in times when things are getting chaotic. You want a woman who has good relationships or not bitter towards family members, that’s important or she’ll take it out on you. These are things you’ll notice after several months of courtship/dating her.
