"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.

Brett Cooper is a 22 year old conservative female with a YouTube channel. Her channel, The Comments Section with Brett Cooper is produced by Ben Shapiro's Daily Wire brand. She has 884,000 Instagram followers and 3.57 million YouTube subscribers.

She received an engagement ring from her boyfriend. It's unclear if her boyfriend is a Chad or a Normie because she doesn't show his face. He does seem like he's 6'0"+ and muscular.


It's somewhat unusual for a 22 year old woman to get engaged today.

She seems to be the polar opposite of Charissa Thompson, a 41 year old twice divorced childless female who likes to party.

"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'm sick of this *****. Controlled opposition and gets WAY too much attention. She is not cute and she doesn't know **** about men.

I think many of the good women get engaged at a young age. They're family oriented, and don't feel the need to spend their prime fertile years wh0ring around.

If she's so "trad", why does she go around with a man's first name?

Buying a ring feeds entitlement. Trad culture is gonna go down hard in my opinion.

We are not in the trad world, it is just entitltement. A ring dont mean anything a woman can still cheat or take it off, it just becomes an entitlement thing, to show off their friends, or here on YT.

Also, Lauren whats-her-face was super trad didnt she married and divorced.

Its just dumb larping by degens.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Lauren Southern. You are correct. She is divorced.

That's her parents' fault for naming her Brett. She could have changed her first name to something more feminine. Changing a name is a pain to do.

Have to disagree, she could quite easily go by her middle name or a nickname. If my parents named me Sue I certainly wouldn't go by that.

From her wiki, she's from LA, has acting experience and a degree in Business. Hmm...

My son will propose to his gf within the next year I expect. She’ll be 22, conservative and family oriented.

My 18yo daughter is also in a LTR going on 3 years. They live together and are likely to marry.

I know other trad/con young couples. It’s a conscious choice better quality women make. That’s been true for generations.

Most of the people I've known have gotten married for the first time in their late 20s - mid 30s.

Median/average ages at first weddings have been increasing for the last 50-60 years.

That's why a 22 year old getting an engagement ring is a story now. The typical woman is closer to 26-31 when she gets her first engagement ring.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Looks like click bait. If she is so excited about the engagement, why is the guy’s identity a secret? Women love to brag to other women about what they have. Majority of their lives is spent flexing on other women they are in competition with.

People like her live off of click bait. Her channel is a combination of commentary on political/economic events and cultural/dating topics. She has had some episodes where she said some redpill-ish type things.

She wants to keep her own private life as private as possible. Her fiancé also doesn't want to be a public figure.

She's a "trad-con influencer"...

BUT...

1. She has a manly name
2. She's a failed actor (no doubt she drank plenty of studio exec zinc)
3. She went to college and...
4. Joined a sorority (zinc alloy from the football team there)
5. She has a job, and not even a well-paying one
6. She is all over social media trying to get attention from thirsty simps
7. She is "soooo happy" to get engaged, but never mentioned any relationship
8. She's been exposed as a grifter multiple times

I'll be laughing at the cuck who tried 2 wife her up when they get to divorce court, if they even make it that far.
 

"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.

With the way the economy is going, hyperinflation, erosion of the middle class etc. I think "Trad Culture" will make a major comeback, things are about to get real not just in the states but the world. When gas goes up to $7-$10 a gallon and people can't afford rent. I think there is gonna be a majority of people that are gonna look to take relationships seriously sort of like they did in the 08 recission

Just my opinon
