Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

The thread of would bang and don't know why.

"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.

She said she use to like pretty boys, but don't know when a guy takes longer to get ready then here.
I've heard several variations on this. If you're a "pretty" boy, if you're too wrapped up in your looks, if you spend too much time on your hair, all of those things can be a turn off to a woman. Because spending a lot of time on your appearance is a FEMININE trait, it's what women do. It's not masculine. If you are a man of action, you should have a haircut that is easily maintained, that sort of thing. A truly masculine man doesn't sit around worrying about how good he looks.

As for the original post, what nationality is that, Korean? How old is that girl anyway?
 

"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.

When that show Blind date was on, I remember this date it was an attractive black girl HB8. She went on a date with a good looking guy, he was also african american. They went on their date conversed, conversation flowed, laughter. In the middle of their date she hits him with the "you're attractive good looking guy, but I like ugly guys, thugs" This guy didn't know how to react it was hilarious

Lol, If some girl told me "but I like thugs" on some date, I would leave her in the middle of the street. I can't imagine a bigger red flag than some chick who is literally only attracted to thugs.
