"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.
Your natural talents

"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.
Other than that, its not easy to tell, Muhammad Ali looked goofy at boxing for his first year, nobody thought anything of him. Only way I think is to try your hand at every sport, not just a once off, but seriuosly try at it, and see if you excell. Other way I can see, is your natural talent is simply that which you enjoy most, if you really love doing it, you will become better and spend more time becoming better as your motivation will have increased.
Badly written, but my brain is fried and I think you get what I mean.
A certain motivational speaker said that if you put 100% of your time to a certain skill you will get good at it.
The second point is obvious, but there is definately such a thing as "natural talent". Jordan was not great at first, but once his body developed and he grew, he was obviously talented. I am sure there were plenty of other guys who trained just as hard as he did and werent nearly as good!

So, actually, I would say go out and try many different things, and don't devote too much to any of them.
The thing you are a 'natural' at will be something that you put time and effort into, regardless of success or failure, because you have a passion, and winning/losing is arbitrary to that passion.
I think I've fortunately found my love in life, but it will still take a lifetimes to elaborate, build on, and sharpen.
Sure, you can get very good at something you weren't born with natural talent for, but everyone does have potential to achieve greatness, but not in the same field or subject area, etc.
Just be patient, you'll find it. And even when you think you've found it, like I think I have, keep trying new things, because you can never be 100% sure that this is it. Always be trying new things, because you have nothing to lose and everything to gain from it.
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Put a "natural" basketball player with no training against a "unnatural" basketball player with heavy training, and the player with no natural talent will win.
Similarly, someone with an IQ of 200 and a mind for business will not beat an experienced businessman like Bill Gates, even if they both start with no money.
So yes, while you can be "natural" at something, the effect is very little. Even many ugly people are far more liked than good-looking people.

"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.
