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.

What are some good movies that show the follies of being a nice guy? Let's compile a list!

I watched a great romantic comedy with wife last night called "The Hating Game".
  • A very refreshing movie as it lacks the social justice narratives. I'm surprised this movie has not been "canceled".
  • The main female character thinks her co-worker hates her, causing her to be obsessed over him.
  • This main male character is confident, focused on his job, doesn't care about her, and negs her continually.
  • Meanwhile, there is a another male co-worker who would do anything for her, never negs her, never make a move to touch or kiss her, and is continually in the friend-zone.
  • Good movie to watch for guys who tend to be too nice.
 

"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.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

The House of Gucci. It does not end well for the man.

Hitch. She’s Out of my League. Bull Durham.
The only romcom my wife and I have watched more than once is When Harry Met Sally. Would recommend if you have not seen it. Has some good rules to follow.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Swingers is a personal favorite. There’s also a movie most have probably never heard of: all the real girls. It’s not a particularly good film but it has one of the best red pill, eye opening plots I’ve seen if that’s what you’re looking for. It’s about a guy who is the “player” in a small town getting into a relationship with a virgin. If you don’t want spoilers don’t read below.

he takes it slow with her, she tries to sleep with him and he basically says no as they are lying naked together because she’s “pure” and a perfectgirl. She then goes on a trip and gets fvcked by the first stud she meets. When she tells thebf he is absolutely floored, angry, pissed off. Not a happy ending movie at all but it’s one of the rare moments a film actually depicted that type of nature.

Bull Durham for sure. I feel like Crash around here.


Read the books Lonesome Dove and Texasville by Larry McMurtry for some deep insights into female nature and mate choosing

I mean there are lots, most are comedies as it ridicules the nice guy in the movie.

Nice guy:

She's Out Of My League
Forest Gump
Something About Mary
Road Trip
Any movie with Michael Cera
Etc
Etc

Bad Boy:

Fifty Shades Of Grey
Fight Club
American History X
Alpha
Any movie with Jason Statham
Etc
Etc

"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.

one for the church crowd.

I still believe

In this movie, the main man literally steals the woman from a beta. This is not what the movie is about, but it is very clearly shown. The beta sort of knows about the steal in the process but due to being "NICE GUY" he actually facilitates it and helps the alpha in hopes to look NICE to the girl. Very illuminating about the true heart of men and women. The lead guy does almost everything right for attraction.

Sex/life

It is the story of a love triangle between a woman, her husband, and her past that takes a provocative new look at female identity and desire. Billie Connelly (Sarah Shahi) wasn’t always a stay-at-home wife and mother living in the suburbs. Before she married loving and reliable Cooper (Mike Vogel) and moved to Connecticut, Billie was a free-spirited wild child living in New York City with her best friend Sasha (Margaret Odette), working hard and playing even harder. Exhausted from taking care of her two young kids and feeling nostalgic for her past, Billie starts journaling and fantasizing about her passionate exploits with sexy ex-boyfriend Brad (Adam Demos), the big heartbreak she never got over. But the more Billie remembers, the more she wonders how she got here — and then her husband finds her journal. Will the truth about Billie’s past start a sexual revolution in her marriage, or lead her down a path back to the life she thought she left behind with the man who broke her heart?
The woman cucks her husband of two kids, who is also a jacked, bodybuilding, millionaire but doesn't give her that spark she had with alpha bad boy so I guess that makes her an alpha widow. This series was written and produced by women, and honestly it's pretty red pill. This show just made me re-think starting a family. Thankfully I know there's a bit more to life than that, but wow.

What's the alternative for Mr beta bucks? Is it to stop pedestalizing her and just not give a f*ck so he inadvertently stirs her attraction?

SPOILER SPACE for All the Real Girls, I guess:
he takes it slow with her, she tries to sleep with him and he basically says no as they are lying naked together because she’s “pure” and a perfectgirl. She then goes on a trip and gets fvcked by the first stud she meets. When she tells thebf he is absolutely floored, angry, pissed off.
And the takeaway from that is: When a girl tells you she is wanting to get fvcked, believe her.

It's not really a lot of guys fault for not seeing it. Society, tv, and peer pressure tells them they can be tried for rape or sexual abuse. Even celebrities dont take that chance these days. We're a cucked society of men atm.
