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.

Ok I'm all about leading and stuff, but seriously, when you're out on a date and they don't agree to what you wanna do, like "let's dance" or "lets go minigolfing" and they only say "no I don't want to" what's a guy to do???

This hasn't happened yet to me, I had a wonderful time, but my buddy's date was like, frigid. She's a cool person, but maybe she's just not into the dating atmosphere? How should I react to this??? because I'm sure I will run into a girl like that in the future....
 

"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 think anti-dump said something about this

he said something along the lines of...
offer a back-up date, and if she says no to that, then say 'ok, maybe some other time then' and leave her

but then again, he was referring to being on the fone

i think most ppl would say in reference to the question u asked, that u should have already planned wat u were gonna do and she should kinda know if ur gonna go skydiving or wateva

ok I don't think I phrased this correctly. Now that I am awake, LET ME TRY AGAIN:

The scene: a party.

The people: party goers + you + your GF/date

The problem: You want to go dance, so you grab your gf's hand and lead her to the dance floor. She pulls back and says "no, I don't' wanna dance" or "nooo I'm too tired" or something along those lines.

My idea: Just be persistent, but go off on your own and have a blast. See me and my buddy did JUST THAT, but we got back and it was a piss fight.


The solution: THIS IS WHERE YOU COME IN :D
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Set her up for a yes.

You: Are you adventurous?

Her: Yes.

You: Are you spontaneous and fun?

Her: Yes

You: Let's dance/let's go minigulfing.

Her: Sure






On a side note:

AFK Projector - remember when me and had a flame war and I called you AFC Projector...:crackup:...you have to admit that I got you.

lol you didnt quote the last part
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I can't believe you ask this! here is what you do.

GF: I don't want to dance
You: fine, ill be back
*you then proceed to go dance with other girls, and you take a peak to see the jealous eyes of your GF seing you with other girls.*
This will show her that
a) you aint dependent on her to have a good time, thus making her more dependent on U
b) get her jealous as she sees you with dancing with other females
c) show her who's boss

Infact I would try to rub it in by laughing and making it seem im having a great time with the girl im dancing with (just to rub it in more to my GF of the chance she missed by not wanting to dance with me)

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I hate dancing too. How do you know it's not a game, and she really doesn't like dancing?
