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.

Asked a girl out, she said she was busy but that we could do a date in a few weeks. The few weeks have now passed, is it worth pursuing by asking her again or is it this answer just translated to "No, I would never go on a date with you"
 

"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.

It's on your mind, so just ask and see what happens. Worst case scenario you get your ego bruised.

As much as I believe it was a form of rejection, it doesnt take much work for you to send her a text or give her a quick call.

If she refuse again with no counteroffer, you got your second strike and you can move on with no further tought about her.

Yeah I agree. Go for the second try. It's not gonna kill you. After that, drop it.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Why was she busy? If it was a legit excuse, maybe. If not, likely just a way to keep you as a backup in case the guy she is seeing now doesn't work out/committ.

Once she said that, I would of moved on and deleted her number. A few weeks? thats way too long for a girl who wants to see you. At most a girl who is legit busy would postpone a week IMO.

A few weeks?! What the f**k.

She's really shameless. Any guys with options would not talk to her after that.

At worst she could have been specific on what she was doing those few weeks, but seems that she hasn't.

Move on.

She's trying to make you wait for weeks, while she's chasing down that Mississippi State football player. :yes:

A woman who wants to see you will rearrange earth's orbit to make that happen. Would she make Brad Pitt wait a few weeks? Hell no.

Why give her a second chance? That only validates her ego. Drop her sorry ass, she did that to you! Judge nismo's ruling.

Case closed.

One of the few general rule we should always keep in mind.

Btw Nismo, aint you 28 since 2010?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Haha so true. Two schools of thought here:

1) next. Don't pander and get rejected

2) keep trying don't let your ego get in the way, who cares what she thinks

I have found that I next girls a little too quickly. This one girl I dropped over the summer I kind of regret now.

I'm willing to take more chances and swallow my pride because if I dont I end up lonely and bored

Chick: We can go out in a few weeks, maybe.
You: Hmmm...ok..I'll call you next year just to be safe!

Dude, that's a 101% rejection. I'd keep it friendly and not bother. If she brings it up, pounce on it, otherwise you'll just become her orbiter waiting for her to decide when to go out. Giving up your power and options before the first date is a horrendous move.
