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.

So I finally asked the attractive co worker out to see a show. She told me she would love to go and we will be going out next week. :) I noticed after asking her out she would come stop by and chat for over an hour with me regarding work/family/hobbies overall great experience. I told her to keep it between us and she said of course. I am thinking about escalating to kino during the date (holding hand, light touching etc) if anyone else has other advice let me know...thanks for all the tips so far
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

If anything goes wrong, keep it civil.

you don't want to be losing your job over this. (in a worst case scenario of course)

Be careful.

A guy I know has an ex-wife that works in the same floor as home literally, like they work together and they hate each other's guts.

Most awkward situation ever and this guy is practically a PUA he knows the game and he chases skirts like any other dude is.

Thanks for the advice everyone...it is just something about her like the usual girls i go for are good looking and thats all..this one is pretty, tall, skinny dresses nice has a good career and focused...I am talking to a couple of other girls at the moment just to keep options open incase are date isnt that great next week.

Game plan is to pick her up, compliment her, convo.. hold hand either walking to the show or exiting the show..and if everything is smooth go for a kiss at the end of night and plan for another date
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

You still haven't touched her? That is a worrysome. Don't wait for a date to start touching women. A random tap on the arm/shoulder for just a second is enough.

She has done nothing to earn your compliments yet. Don't get ahead of yourself brother you don't want to be seen as a nice guy.

The only compliment you should give a woman is telling her she looks sexy (not cute, not beautiful but SEXY). That shows sexual interest in her/women love it/keeps you out of the friend zone. It's the only compliment I use (and it has always worked). I don't compliment women on nothing else :D

When it comes to holding hands that is just really played out and old fashioned. Women even find it creepy now a days for a guy to want to hold their hand on a first date or whatever. You are better served by touching her 20 times during the date (whether tap on shoulder, hand on shoulder or arm etc etc) than holding hands. Constant kino throughout the date is better than walking around holding hands.

Congrats on the date situation.

A - Don't stress yourself out with overplanning. You're going out with her with the intention of having a fun night. The more pressure you put on yourself, the less likely you are to make a move.

B - Hand-holding is for high schoolers.

C - You're going to do great. Relax.

I usually don't recommend this - I've been there and done that and haven't had a ton of great experiences.

Your thread titled suggested it took you a while to finally ask her. Can you describe how long it's taken / what the relationship was like / and how you actually asked her?

We been coworkers for a couple a months but I didn't ask her because we were both new and I was talking to someone else...I just asked what she was doing on the weekend and let her know i have tickets to a show and wanted to know if she would be interested..she said she would love to and that is very sweet of me asking.
