"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.

Women still look to men to solve problems

So this is not a b1tch or a rant against women. Just thought I'd warn you. :rolleyes:

One of the chicks I bang semi-regularly works in a place that suffered a full-day blackout recently, like the whole city. She related this story......

When the blackout happened, she and some female co-workers had to move a bunch of perishable produce to one of their houses on ice to keep it from going bad.

So she and two other girls she worked with all got this done, which involved some logistics of buying a huge amount of ice, getting some containers, packing the food, traveling with it, etc.

After they were done one of the girls exclaimed, "See, we didn't even need a man to help us. We did it all ourselves!"

Anyway, I thought it was really cute. Apparently many women still look to men to "direct" them during times of crisis and/or times when logistical stuff has to happen. I was a little amazed that women would be amazed that they could pull it off without a man these days, but apparently they were.

Thought I'd share. :D
 

"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.

Men handle the big stuff while they micromanage little stuff like mismatching socks or arranging apple-picking outings.

Emulating the usual, shallow, shamelessly practical Zarky the original:

What does this have anything to do with getting into the pants of hot chicks?

Am I in the dairy section of our forum?

What's this garbage Zarky ?

Ok, Scara , sorry I am being too caustic.
Thanks for the advice, I will take it.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

ah, but it does help, if you think about it. I think these insights are important. Broad-based rants that "all women X" and "women always Y" and "these days women are so Z" aren't very helpful... but knowing that when they're alone, many women are amazed by their capacity to do problem solving without a man present to me says volumes about my ability to convince them to bone me. :up:
