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.

"Casanova" The movie

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

But after just seeing the preview I'm not going to see it. Casanova goes AFC for one girl. What a shame.

in this movie they are going to protray him as trying to woo the one gal who turns him down in the first place, however after doing some reading in his memoirs online, its not exactly the truth.
as it tells, once he wooed her, they were together about 8 months in venice and then he leaves her with her mother and brother in his home and moves away, doing whatever he fancied and she is only allowed to go to church with her mother or do his errands when he writes to her in exchange for living in his home and he sends her money when he wants. other times he writes and says he has no money. meantime, he does what he wants with other women, including one he almost married in vienna but was talked out of it by a guardian angel male friend and from then on refers to marriage as silly in his writtings. he also writes to a english chick from many years . during the entire time, this francesca chick is still living in his house and writes to him and always asks him to come home, which he never does and blames it on money.
finally some friend tells him he saw francesca out at a gathering with a girlfriend and it p isses him off so he writes an angry letter to her. so she tells him she went but only one time and then tells him they were so in need of money that her and her mother sold his books from the attic and then he doesnt write to her for at least a year. then after that he writes to her like 2 years later but never returns to her.
his books meant more to him than the chick afterall.

Well this movie finally came to my town so I checked it out.

It's good light entertainment, has a few of the now classic tips we use here, for example Casanova tells the brother of the woman he's after to "be the flame not the moth." As does he become afc at the end, well considering he's probably bedded hundreds by the time he meets her I for one and forgive it. He doesn't turn into any kind of wose, so it's all good.

Bottom line: it's a an ok light movie with some fun, stupid hollywood stuff thrown in.
 

"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.
