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.

She saw me skateboarding and I dunno if she was impressed. So the next time I see her maybe Ill say: So how was my skateboarding on a scale from 1-10. 1 being good and 10 being good? (A little CF?) Anyways could that just be my opener?
 

"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.

"So how did you like my skateboarding on a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being awesome and 10 being kick @$$? Please be as honest as you possibly can."

That confident approach is the only way to go about it. ^

Any way else seems too desparate, seeking approval a bit too much.
 

"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.

Where I be at
You: So, I saw you watching me skateboard the other day. Here's a piece of paper with my name and number on it. Think about how much that'll be worth in the future! Later.

Money in the bank son. One of the only times I would condole giving your number rather than asking for one.

I find that often a lot of guys overdo the whole opening thing. ****y funny lines are overused, an opener is just meant to OPEN. If you think you have better chance at a decent conversation with something simpler than your C+F opener, use it instead.

Not every opener must be ****y funny, with a time constraint and all that other crap. Even less so when you're in High School and the Game is completely different.
