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.

My exgirlfriend and I have become close friends after a while of socializing and becoming close once more. We broke up more then a year ago, and didn't talk for seven months. For some reason we are talking and close again, but something strange has come up. We are both aware of something between us, we aren't sure what it is. She is adament about ignoring it, but I need help doing something to shake it up and cause her to dwell on this thing, maybe even causing us to date. This thing between us puts us very very close, but she is really trying to ignore, but it shows through once in a while. What should I do?
 

"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.

What kind of move should I make? With her I become a total newbie. She is very important to me.

This is stressful.

lol yeah everyone wants to sound like Lord Sideous of the evil Empire. It didn't even work on Luke Skywalker, what makes you think a chick is gonna fall for that one?

"oh yes, My resistance to your love is futile; take me away!"

hahahaha!

dude break the ice. Go Ice Skating. Go to where you took her for your first date. Go to a good view and go through enough routines to get close enough to just spark that fuse of lust and ignite the flame of love! That flame happens to be in a kitchen which has a gasoline leak somewhere. Blow those muffins right out've the ****in oven!
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

The manlyman and that other guy with analogies, you guys are my heroes. I don't know why.

Anyway, I'm just hoping for a few more ideas, I'm normally more spontaneous, but since I have a lot more on my plate then I did a year ago, I need help with date thinking.

Im not sure if it would get the results you want.

You should stay away for a bit and see if she will chase you or something. (if she wants more?) Leave it up for her and keep your options open....

Im kind of in the same situaction, but were still in the 'not talking to one another' area. Like I knew she liked me, told me once that and that she was ignoreing her feelings...I see her everyday at school; think she still likes me even, but we dont talk... I guess I should clear it up; we dont talk to one another directly...

So just leave it up to her...your the prize (the catch).

Would that be the way to play it guys? ( I want to know for myself too, lol)
