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 am glad Bonex wants to support his child, but his situation definitely is not one for congratulations and props!

What is wrong with you people? He has now fukked up his life.. this is not a reason to celebrate! No matter what happens he now has life long problems and financial obligations and will certainly not have a good relationship with the mother. What will happen when she decides to marry some other chump who wants to adopt the kid and make it a nice family??

THIS WILL NOT HAVE A GOOD ENDING!

Bonez, keep doing the right thing but don't brag about your situation!

I am glad Westcoaster and a few others are still here giving the "voice of reason" as opposed to the wonderful congratulations from the "voice of Oprah" crowd.

Jeezzz.................................:(

"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'm all for being realistic but some of you guys talk as if guys have no ability to have any influence on the interactions within their lives. It sounds extremely defeatist. :down:
