"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.

I have a friend like that, everything always seems to work out for him...especially with women.

I mean, sometimes is very hard TO NOT get envious.

They say envy is the strongest when two people are very similiar (e.g. looks, intelligence, height) and one always seems to catch the break.

We are about the same height, same build, same intelligence, etc. He is facially better looking, but only slightly. If he is an 8, I am a 7.

He always seems to meet girls left and right, one after the other. He also always seems to be the one who does the dumping as well.

I would say he is NOT a Don Juan either, because he has on numerous occasions handed out his number or business card w/o getting the girls (an AFC move) and is usually drunk when he spits game to girls.

However, everything always seems to work out.
 

"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.

You bring up an interesting point...I think this is one of the reasons why one of my best buds and I are constantly at each others' throats. We're about the same height, build, and looks, and both like to party (drink/smoke/etc) but he's had the bad luck to get a DUI and a marijuana conviction, while I have gotten out of more **** scot-free than you would believe.

I would say your situation is that your buddy just puts himself out there more. Sounds like he is just an outgoing guy who wins some and loses some, but has enough attempts that the losses don't matter.

I'll try a fishing analogy here...who's gonna catch more fish, the guy who uses the most high-tech rod and reel and fancy lures or the guy with a stick of dynamite and a net?

Yeah, he does live in New York City and I live in the burbs with my parents.

However, it was like this before he moved to NYC.
