"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.

I had a young friend come to my shop to learn physical/mental/mechanical stuff in regards to racing. After a while he met this girl that turned him from a hard charging winner, into an annoying little Sissymary. 3-to-5 phone calls within an hour. First time I worked around it. 2nd time I told him he is not welcome if he answers his phone when she calls.

I thought he would tell her not to call when he's at Jim's.. Told him to leave, never heard from him again. Note: He thought I was joking and asked over & over are you serious? Are you for real? I said yep! Go, be gone, see ya!

"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.

Very wise of you. Maybe he can figure it out you helped him greatly.
