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.

According to the article (written by a woman), women are raped and sexually assaulted by Uber drivers at a high rate. So, a guy made a new app called Chariot for Women. All drivers are women and will only pick up women.

I have a hard time believing that all of these "rapes" and "sexual assaults" really happened, since we all know that woman make it up a lot. Thoughts on this?
 

"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.

"6,160 tickets, and the search "rape" returned 5,827 individual tickets". Out of how many tickets?

What percentage are total tickets of total Uber 'rides'. Of those 'tickets' how many were reported to the police or anywhere except on an Uber ticket?

People that listen to free-floating numbers with no context whatever are idiots. They think they know something.

Step One: Create a service to cater to women, run by women.

Step Two: Plant stories in the media of horrible stuff happening to women that use the services if your competition

Step Three: Rinse and repeat as needed to steal market share from your competition.

Of course, a business savvy FEMALE uber driver could use this to her advantage. Promote herself as a safe female driver that is CHEAPER than the female-uber outfit, thereby using her opponents strategy and marketing efforts against them.

All's fair in love and war, bytches.

(and business is war)

Uber can retaliate and let a duck swim in the internet saying that Uber drivers rape homos. There are plenty of homos in Britain and Europe so Uber taxi service will profit.

Uber drivers are screened extensively. That's why 'Lyft' died out.

You have to literally go somewhere and get you and your car inspected. Also, it has a review system.

Highly doubt that happens if ever.
 

"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.

It's a secret competition to come up with new and interesting ways women are being raped or experiencing sexism.

This isn't true. I drove a 2004 Sebring with 200,000 miles on it for a few months before I realized it was both dangerous and unprofitable. No inspection on my car. And their screening process is horrendous. Convicted felons get through the system and it's not unusual for riders with 5.0 ratings to act like drunken savages in your car.

That's interesting, I live in a College city so maybe that's why it is more extensive.
