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.

Women just haven't been the main focus at all last few months - which has corresponded with probably the most productive and positive period of my twenties. Content with how things are going. However this has brought with it the necessity of flaking on women.

Tomorrow I arranged to meet three chicks, but then I got a last minute client meeting (money before h0es). I like the look of the girls enough to want to rearrange the dates for a better night. What's the best way to flake and keep the "player" alarm bells from ringing in their ears?
 

"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.

Tell them you got a last minute client meeting with a very important client and you want to reschedule. Same idea that, if a chick is going to flake on a date with a dude, she should go in with a counter offer, otherwise she really isnt interested.

Money before h0es. Got that right!

I agree with @EyeBRollin

Plus once you are the high value person, flaking becomes pretty normal. I do it a lot. I was supposed to grab brunch with a plate this past Saturday. I ended up over sleeping and woke up to several texts asking me if I was still coming. Didn't respond until Sunday.

I think back to my younger days when women would flake on me like I was dirt. Now that I can turn it around, I don't feel bad at all.
 

"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.

Which is?
not going out with a chick who wants to go out with you should be seen as more of a missed opportunity than a thing to be proud of (unless there's something wrong with her)
 

"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.

Wrong. The end goal is not to get the girl but enjoy life. Would you rue a decision to stay in, rather than watch a film at the cinema a "missed opportunity"? I think not. It's simply preference.

At the moment, women just really are a more sentient form of entertainment.

Yes actually, I've regretted staying in almost every time I've ever done it, granted im closer to a shut in than a party animal

Actually, don't give a reason, just say "Darling, I won't be able to make it tomorrow as planned but I will make it up to you".
