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.

GOTH NIGHT

Went out to goth night for the second time last night. There were less people there this time, probably because of the cold. Only opened four sets:

1 dude - Turned out to be a promoter. Remembered his name, cool dude. Now I know someone there.

1 dude - Had a straightjacket on, tried to start a conversation with him. Blew myself out.

2 Set [Male + Female] - Asked what the movie was playing on the TV, got a one word answer. Blown out. Not a very good set anyway, the female was a whale, and the guy was probably socially awkward.


2 Set [Male + Female] -Asked about the same movie, actually had a short conversation.

And that's it. It's progress, I only opened one set last week, and it was only a few exchanges of words. I also stayed there for about an hour, which was twice as long as last time. I'm still getting used to the environment. I keep remembering that it took Mystery MONTHS to work up the courage to talk to one person. I'm still yet to open a set of girls that I find even attractive. The goth club is WAY out of my comfort zone. Plus I think I might have seen some dudes that were cross dressing, so I need to stay on my toes out there.

The weather is sh*t tonight, and I need to take it easy on my spending and gasoline. I'll be staying home tonight, studying a bit of wealth, and going to bed earlier than usual to wake up and work out. Planning on practicing daygame at a local college, going to work, then going out to 80's night if my lady decides not to spend the night. Hopefully the pink shirt will arrive from Los Angeles tomorrow. It's a $60 Express 1MX shirt that I got for $20 (thank you eBay).

Planning on buying a laptop so I can get rid of my desktop, and keep the laptop off, closed, and away unless I need it, so I can avoid looking at porn. The girls in my area don't have much competition, so an attractive girl is challenging to find. Quitting porn so I can have a realistic view of girls.
 

"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.

Seriously, man... Pink is just a color. Don't make a big deal out of it when talking to people. I don't even know why it's a big deal to you in the first place. We aren't in middle school anymore, nobody cares.

Met a GOREGOUS girl with blue eyes at my local college. I sat down next to her, and started talking to her. She asked ME for MY number, and I told her that I would call her on Sunday. I invited her out salsa dancing tonight (Friday), but she works. Looking forward to this one.

Didn't go out to 80's night last night (Thursday) because my girl slept over. We didn't have sex, and I was really pissed in the morning. I think she mentioned something about being on her period, but I am still irritated. I'm getting ready to drop her if she keeps witholding sex from me; she's not worth the trouble.

Going salsa dancing tonight, invited another girl. If she doesn't come out I'll go to the club after salsa dancing, and then go out and put signs out for my business at 2am.

Saturday involves me waking up early for a tie dye 5k run, sleep, and then probably a party.

Looking forward to getting out there and getting numbers (I prefer instant dates) and especially this Sunday.

Also looking forward to doing my first real estate deal; $10k would be nice now.

HOLY SH*T PEOPLE. ENOUGH ABOUT THE DAMN PINK SHIRT. I GET IT. "IT'S JUST A COLOR, BLAH BLAH BLAH BULLSH*T BULLSH*T BULLSH*T."

For some reason everyone is focusing on the f*cking pink shirt. Is anyone reading past the first two paragraphs before posting? No wonder why women get bored quickly by most dudes; they all say the same sh*t.

Anyway, went out salsa dancing. Not many attractive girls. Practiced dancing with everyone though, did much better.

Went out to the only under 21 club, which happens to be a gay bar. It was very slow, and full of dudes (usually there are hot women everywhere), so I left. Started a few more conversations, it's getting MUCH easier to do it now. I just need to keep pushing myself out there.

Going to wake up earlier than usual and run a bit, get acclimated to the cold air so I'm ready for the 5k.
 

"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.

You're using the pink shirt as a gimmick, so people are going to be focusing on the pink shirt. If this thread is any indication, it's probably a distraction to what you're trying to really accomplish. You might as well wear a fuzzy hat.

Blah, blah, blah, etc., etc.

Vice, great thread man. I like how you're taking the time to step out of your element to have a good time. This is really inspiring me to do so myself and work on my day game, most of the time when i meet new people it's just at bars, concerts, clubs, and parties. I never really tried working game at a mall, stores, parks, or any of that. Best of luck to you man.
