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.

Me and this girl i just met were hitting things off all night long and we ended up crashing at my boys house one night, we ended up hooking up at like 3:00AM for about two hours. No sex, nothing too crazy, we passed out spooning, and when 10:00AM rolled around I got up to go to the bathroom and came back, and laid back down, then I said, "I need a little space" because i didn't have any headroom. A little scoot was all i needed. She got the complete wrong idea got up and moved to another couch, I was being sarcastic and said, "Oh well... wow that works i guess." And i passed out again. Then i woke up to nobody there, she told my friend that she hates me, and said stuff like i don't want to talk to him again.

She thought I meant "Get outta my site" when i asked for some room. I haven't talked to her since and I was wondering how i should contact her. I don't want her to get the wrong idea of me. She's a HB9.0, i'd like to be on friendly speaking terms at least. What should i say?
 

"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.

I need advice wording it.

I can't just be like, "Hey, you got the wrong idea. I meant a little scoot over not, get out of my face. WTF girl" heh

uhhh you just let her go to the couch and stew in it ?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I gotta go with pen on this one. Why didn't you speak up while she was walking to the sofa. That was an easy save and you blew it big time. You could get deep into what she was thinking at the time and all but that doesn't really matter anymore.

I say chalk this one up to learning exprience and move on. The memories will fade in a few days. If you see her again face to face maybe you can clear things up... or not it doesn't really matter.

Yeah, I know usually hookups like this don't hold any kind of future. I just didn't want to be on good terms in case we did meet again randomly somewhere. Small town, I usually run into the same people every once in awhile. You know how that goes. Yeah, well i sent her a msg on myspace, that's the only form of contact i had with her. She read it no reply. No big deal. She was a virgin, very insecure and 18 yrs old. I usually next these girls from the get go.
