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.

So no major mistakes. The relationship is pretty good.

What I'm struggling with (how not to get drawn in by it mainly) is when we argue she gets emotional and starts bringing in past arguments, conflicts, how she felt 5 months ago on a Thursday, whatever.

It can be arguing about the most mundane thing then suddenly something triggers her emotions, and random things that are completely irrelevant get dragged in.

I can be argumentative at times, and I'm quick to bite.

Then I'm genuinely utterly ****ing confused as to what I'm even arguing about.

Looking for advice....

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

In an ideal world, I wouldn't even entertainment it.

In a way I enjoy an argument. I think it's something I need to work on. I'm just trying to figure out what lesson I need to learn.

Lol have we already introduced you to this creature called a WOMAN.

If this is the advice you need then ( with due respect) you gotta make mayor steps and start learning game like a mad man...

Let me say this as a appetizer for now; getting into a argument with a woman is almost like getting into a street fight with a dude. Something that might happen...but rather should be avoided at all costs.

You lose TONS of frame when arguing with her, unless you know what the F you're doing and use the argument to reinforce your frame. So long story short ; dont argue, and learn more about game.


I wished somebody told me this when I moved in with my exes...
 

"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.

Exactly.
It's not worth it. Better to leave them alone and hit the gym or something when it happens.

How often are you arguing? I rarely get into heated arguments in my relationships. I don't have time for it. If I have to argue with someone constantly I'll find someone I don't have to do that with.

I have found this in my relationships,if the woman decides,everytime you argue,to wheel out the "greatest hits" that have you have covered in minute detail a 1000x then I have learned to say " we have discussed that, from every angle,a thousand times,im not talking or mentioning that,ever again" and then doing exactly that. Deprive them of it. its worked for me

She’s afflicted with “mad cow” disease.…

Since she changed her birth control it started. Mabye once a month, its usually over some pretty ****.

It's not personally aimed at me either, with everyone in general.

She definitely doesn't turn into a monster or too extreme. She's very self aware about it, Its something I really sympathise with her about.

Both control and it's effects have been a problem for her her whole life. She gets around it by constantly trying to switch things up and find what works best at that time.

She currently has an implant , before that was an injection.

On zero birth control she's at her best.
