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.

did my 2nd cold approach today (i told yall bout my 1st one on monday) and #closed. problem was i was nervous as sh!t. anyway read the story and dialouge and give me some advice, pointers, constructive criticism on what i said or did:

was in the caff eating breakfast and saw this chick come in with her friend, everything im learning from RSD is tellin me not to be a chode and just go open her but im eating so i tell myself when i finish i'll go over to her table. mistake 1 (i shouldve did it right then).

as i finish my meal shes leaving out the caff and i was about to speed walk to catch up to her to tap her on the shoulder but i didnt wanna seem like i was chasing her so i said fugetaboutit. 2 hours lates leaving out the liberal arts building going to the bus stop and i see her again but shes some yards away so im not about to go chase.

i get to the bus stop and 5 mins later who do i see? at the moment im listening to RSD in my Zune so im like "here we go" in my head. she proceeds to walk behind me and i turn my head and say "hey whats up" but she dosent hear me cuz she has her mp3 player in her ear. im standing at a tree about 20 yards away from the bus stop and shes standing at the stop. everything in my head is teling me to go approach her but like a chode im standing there for 20mins not doing anything about to let an opportunity pass me up cuz im nervous. im nervous bcuz the girl is cute but she looks mean.

detroit women have this look about them thats like a dont f#^k wit me type look, also shes taller than me so im letting my height(5'7) get to me, then were both catching the bus and detroit women def dont f%^k wit dudes who dont have a car. anyway the bus comes and we both get on and i sit right behind her and i tell myself that these thing are only short comings if i allow them to be and its now or never. so i tap her on the shoulder (detroit women def dont like being touched by strangers) so im scared she may cuss me out for touching her. she turns around, smiles, takes her mp3 player out her ear

me: whats your name
her: a---- (i instantly for get it cuz im nervous)
me: hi im king (shake her hand)
me: i just saw u at the bus stop and i just really wanted to meet u (she smiles)
me: i like how you put that brown together, alot of people cant do that
her:oh thank you, i like dark colors, i wear alot of brown and blacks
me: why cuz it make u look slimer (tryin 2 be c&f)
her: (laughs) no i just like em fro some reason, all my friends blah blah blah
me:oh ok. i saw u in the caff earlier today wit ur friend, the light skinned girl but u stormed outta there so quick before i could come overr and say something to you
her: ohh yeah, i hate that place, i just go in there for a lil bit to wait for my class to start
me: what u listening to
her: a lil bit of everything
me: what u listening to right now
her: xscape (old female r&b group from the early 90s)
me: which one
her: im not sure
me: this one? (i pull out my zune and show her the album cover of the xscape i have)
her: (suprised i have that album) yeah that one
me: see i listen to some of everything too
her: yeah i got country, rap, rock , and r&b in here
me: so do i, if somebody got ahold of my zune they wouldnt be able to tell if a man, woman, white or black pereson owned it with the types of albums i got in here
her: same here
me:what semester you in up at school
her:this is my # semester
--now i absolutely hate this next line cuz i know every college chick heres it--
me:so what u studying (not very original but whatever, im still nervous)
her: physical therapy. and you?
me:accounting
her:wow, i cant deal with all that math im not good at it
me:neither am i but accounting is just adding and subtracting
me:what math you got right now
her: i was taking 110 but i had to drop it, so right now im taking physics so im just counting that as my math
me: so i guess since we both suck at math its no point in tryin to hel each other cuz well probably botth fail
her:laughs
--we continue to have a lil more college talk(after realizing shes nice and receptive i calm down some)--
me:look my stop is coming up can i get your number to call u sometime
her:sure
--at this point im fumbling around wit my pda cuz now it wants to freeze up and the bus is quickly approaching my stop--
her:look at you mr.hi-tech u gone miss ur stop in a min
me: after i get the damn pda working) ok what is it
her:### ### ####
me:and how do u spell your name (cuz i really 4got it, i have to stop doing that)
me: ok and im king again, nice meeting you. and i shake her hand again and exit

what was i scared off in the first place, she turned out to be very nice. i probably wont call her cuz chances are im going to see her on campus or on the bus often and sincee neither of us have a car we cant actually go out but i probably see if she wants to go to the mall up the street from the school one day after class and grab some lunch. but whatever im just glad after so much procrastination i grabed my balls and approached. i think i could get used to this.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
