"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Him:

- 45 years old
- 1 divorce
- 0 kids
- decent looking
- has money
- 6’5

Her:

- 43 years old (not fertile)
- 2 divorces
- 2 kids
- good looking for age
- has money



Why would a 45 year old 6’5 actor with 0 children ask a non-fertile twice divorced single mom of 2 small kids to be his wife?

Thoughts?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Why would anyone who has already been divorced once want to be married again, let alone to someone who has already been divorced TWICE!?!

Once, OK...you made a mistake I get it...twice, is a pattern of not being suitable to be with someone long term and not marriage material.

Hollywood.

It is what these people do to garner publicity. And when that runs it's course... have a nice nasty @ss divorce complete with infidelity with co-stars... or better yet, one of them sudden decide they are homosexual. That and adopt a rainbow collection of children that are actually raised by nannies. If you are a Hollywood man in his 70s, and the 'plumbing' no longer works anyway, just chop the sucker off, change your name to "Kaitlin" suddenly you are all the rage again with people declaring you 'brave and beautiful'.

These people live in a completely different world.

I think this is an example of being a glutton for punishment. He surely has some internal issues, maybe fear of being alone, a feeling he's not good enough, who knows what exactly. :rolleyes:
If he was fully secure in who he is and his masculinity he'd look at it as a joke to get engaged to that woman.

So true
 

"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.

This guy is insane for proposing marriage to a twice divorced single mom with 2 children under 10.
 

"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.
