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.

A side effect of being a DJ: Other girls disrespect my girl

I've applied what I learned here in real life, and landed myself an amazing girlfriend. So far all is good, she's nuts about me, and I'm in full DJ mode.

But there's an unintended consequence to being a DJ: My girlfriend gets treated like crap by other girls when we go out.

I see them scoping us out. They stare at me and give her murderous looks. They get in her way, try to inconvenience her, and make things as difficult as possible. I get flirted with, the red carpet treatment, and compliments.

This is great for my ego, but I kinda feel bad for my girlfriend. I can see in her face she hates it and feels inferior to the other girls.

I guess the DJ lifestyle is a win/win situation for the guy, but for the girl, it's not a garden of roses....
 

"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.

Tell them to respect your girl of fvck off.
I do, but that seems to make them even more determined.

Though, in hindsight, this is a problem lots of guys wish they had. ;)

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

yeah bro, same thing happened with my ex girlfriend before I moved. my ex was one of those people who was nice to just about everyone and would make friends with all of my friends. One night, my roommates sister disrespected her pretty bad and I didn't even know. I guess when your room mate has been your friend for the past 5 years and is one of the coolest people you know, one wouldn't suspect their sister to be a total complete fvcking ****.
