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.

I been looking at this chick for a good minute. We see each other like every other week, and we have a little communication and she gives me the subliminal thumbs up.

So today I'm not there to see her to I tell my boy to ask her "what's really good". She asks him for my phone number and later texts me. Here's how the lil convo goes:



Her: Whats up
Me: Who's this?
Her: The sexiest person you work with
Me: Mmm Ms Hooks (one of my ugly managers)
Her: Funny
Me: Nah I'm playin, Sarah (<not her real name but we'll use that), what's good
Her: Nothin, you
Me: Just watchin Prince do his homo act (Colts won :up: ). How was work
Her: Wack
Me: Y, becuz I wasn't there (<---Basic ****y+funny that SoSuave would recommend)
Her: Duh (<-- these one word answers are buggin me at this point but whatever)
Her: So what was you tellin Tim
Me: I was tellin dude like "Why haven't me and Sarah hit it off yet, this should of been old news"
Her: Oh thats funny
Me: He was like "cuz you fallin off" and I was like "Check yo self, then check me, you already know what it is". That's probably when he gave you the heads up.
Her: Yeah
Me: So what you doing

That's where she just goes ghost. No more texts. Now I'm like, OK maybe I came off too ****y. It probably wouldn't sounded more playful if we talked on the phone. I don't know. I'm just worried about the fact that she just went ghost.

Man maybe I'm just trippin. I can't wait to get to school tommorow so I can get my confidence back up by talkin to some other chicks. Get my mind off this loss.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Too ****y for who? Her? Or you?

You can't live your life trying to please every girl. Some girls will have found whatever you did too ****y. Others will not. End of story.

It sounds from your conversation that you have very little rapport with this girl. You are not discussing her interests, values, things of importance, desires or anything that is remotely interesting to woman in any of those messages. You basically speak about nothing that entire time and what do you expect, her to tell you that she wants to fvck your brains out. Learn how to ask interesting questions before you bore yourself and all of us to death with another post of dead-air conversation.
 

"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.

I dont think you were too ****y personally, maybe she just took issue with something you said on a personal level. Or, in fairness, "so what are you doing?" isnt the most thrilling conversation starter.

What is the attraction with having entire conversations via text? People talk about not having huge email or even telephone exchanges but why is it seemingly alright with something as cryptic a text messaging. Anything more than exchanging one or two lines doesn't seem to be the best way to hold a conversation.

you acted way to intrested in her while she acted way too unintrested in you if a chick is only giving you one word answers back off and freeze her out a lil if texting i usualy take twice as long as it took her to respond to my message before i text her back to DHV then DHV in my response.

Her: Whats up
Me: Who's this?
Her: The sexiest person you work with
Me: Mmm Ms Hooks (one of my ugly managers)
Her: Funny
Me: [COLOR="Red"[U]]Nah I'm playin[/U][/COLOR][COLOR="Red"]O you mean the 2nd sexiest person i work with(This would of been a better response[/COLOR]), Sarah (<not her real name but we'll use that), what's good
Her: Nothin, you


also anytime a girl gives me an answer like this i usualy say somthing along the lines of: Thats lame, then respond with what im doing
and all your ****y funny was completely indirect in a mean you were DLV while being ****y funny you showed that you talk about her to your friends and employees and inderectly palyed ****y funny, and you never stuck with it all she had to say was
Her: Funny
and you fell in her frame of her being the sexyeist girl you work with
and lastly you never figured out why she was texting you in the first place you just were glad that she was.
 

"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.

You sound like a obnoxious idiot, no wonder she isn't interested.
