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.

Rememer the creed of sosuave "YOU ARE THE PRIZE" I'm glad you put up that video because i've been trying to find it for the longest on tv and craig did do a good job just not a great job
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

The 2 chicks at the end were just 2 girls in the crowd watching the show. A minute after he got rejected he just walked over there and grabbed them for the camera and they played along to be on television. I notice on elimidate when people first meet the girl they're drooling over them, and then when they get rejected they're all sour grapes.

classic

Craig's frame was perfect. the other guys always leaned in, and pushed to sit next to her, while he always sat with a guy in between him and the girl. he turned his head to listen to her, but didnt turn the rest of his body to meet hers. excellent

he was entertaining, and waited until the perfect time to pounce with something funny to say to bust on the other guys trying to gain her approval or make stupid jokes.

very good

"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.

Ugh. I can't even sit through this. All of the guys just pointing out where the other guys messed up is horrible.

Yeah, the guys ragging on Craig all the time, so funny. Although it was agonizing watching the bickering on those shows. Whenever a guy does something sweet or whatever, they're always like "What a dh!!! as if you would do that!"

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I think the runner-up had no game at all. All he had going for him was his looks. He embarresed himself. He got AMOG'ed by Craig when they were sitting in the sofa at the club and he kept qualifying himself to the girl. Always bragging. He was a moron. Without his looks he couldn't get a girl if his life depended on it...

Craig wasn't great and some of his techniques backfired, but he had it covered from the beginning.

The tall, goofy guy was hilarious on the dancefloor though. I felt his pain :D Bambi on ice..

My favorite part is when Craig gets the champagne and the girl, Jennifer Korbin, asks him a question. Craig completely ignores her (maybe he didn't hear her).

I think if Craig wasn't as good dancer as he is, and the tall rock guy was more coordinated, the outcome might've been different.

The other thing is, a lot of the date was cut out. Usually elimidate takes place over a few hours, sometimes an entire day, and it's cut down to the most entertaining 20 minutes. Maybe the producers cut out some of Craig's jokes to make it seem more balanced.

I saw Elimidate as following the MM to a degree.

A1 was where they first met - so when Craig establishes himself as the prize with a DHV ("YOU don't have to be worried" - genius line) he's using an affective opener which craps all over the others.

The rest of the Elimidate was A2, female to male attraction. Jennifer was choosing guys, so DHV was very important. As was frame setting. The other guys jumped into her frames, which was dangerous.

THe weakest part of Craigs act was the "travel the world liek James Bond..." - that was Speed Seduction. And that stuff only works in the Comfort zone. Given that Eliidate is A2...no hope :p

Good job he was a **** hot dancer - made her completely forget about the fluff ups.

Did you notice that right at the end Craig shifts into A3 - he compliments her on something other than her looks, then throws in a little C+F. ("Good taste in men")

Textbook stuff. I think he was nervous not because she was a playboy model, but because the credibility of THE ENTIRE PUA COMMUNITY was hanging in the balance. Considering that, I reckon he did a damn good job.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
