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.

article: 9 Reasons It’s So Hard to Find a Good Man

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Some of these are true, actually, but true of both sexes so it's not like women should be let off the hook. The "men are afraid of power" canard really should read "men are not attracted to 'powerful' women." And the Peter Pan Syndrome thing is just an example of her wanting someone to be something he's not.
I agree.

Here's my actual 9:

1. Women seek perfection that doesn't exist
2. Women are hypergamous and always looking for upgrades
3. Women value looks and what's in between their legs more so than anything
4. Women lack basic domestic skills like cooking and such
5. Women will not stay with you if you don't add any value in their eyes
6. Women are too entitled and spoiled these days
7. Women have endless options(quantity over quality) since there is so much male thirst out there
8. Women can't think for themselves and often make decisions out of pure emotions.
9. Women are not qualified to do certain jobs but they think they can. Case in point, this article lists 10 reasons but the title says 9 reasons.

Obviously there's more than 9 but these are what comes to mind.
