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.

I always feel like I'll look like a fool # closing and getting rejected in a class.. I don't really care as much if its just me and her, but in class its like ahhh everyone will see and laugh and all that. Anyone else like this, howd you get over it.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I feel weird number closing in a cemetary or an execution chamber, but certainly not a lecture hall.

nobody is going to laugh at u if u number close and dont get it. Most guys seeing this will look at u and think 'i wish i had the balls to do that. and the women will say : "i wish i could meet a confident guy like that'. Number close everywhere, except if ur at a funeral.
 

"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.

Well a lecture hall isn't really a regular pickup scene for me. I think that anyone who is a sociable enough person won't rush things when it comes to gaming girls in your class. There are tons of oppurtunies to build rapport and when you have something going on in your life (Hopefully your trying to be a DJ and not just a PUA, then you'd have a life) just ask if she'd like to come along. That's not too embarrassing to do, right? Just be patient yet persistant and something will come out of it. Talking to girls all the time is a win/win situation because even if she doesn't agree to go out with you all the other girls in the class will see you constantly talking to a girl. They'll begin to feel more comfortable in your presence and therefore be more receptive to you opening them.

That's my advice, if you feel better just number closingdo what everyone else says and get over the fear by practicing on girls out of class.
