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.

Dating 1 month. Would this be too much to say?

Ive been dating this girl for a month now. I havnt really ever been sappy or mushy with her because its pretty early in the relationship. Shes a sucker for compliments though and I was wondering if (She told me she had an amazing sleep) Good morning :) Beautiful day for a beautiful girl would be too much.

I normally dont ask for advice when it comes to texting and all that because Im pretty solid IMO at it. But me being in a relationship is a whole new ball game for me.

Opinions?

Mind you this is probably the best day weve had all year up here
 

"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.

Honestly, Just be authentic but don't comprimise your integrity...women work with their egos...so they want your accepntance and validation from u...so alot of times once they get that they r done...idk much about your relationship...but im just gonna leave ti with be your self...and if your self is "weak" then work on your self...its hard to say do that or dont while not being involved in the sittuation.

Personally I wouldn't, even though you may want to tell her how beautiful you think she is it can work against you. She probably already knows she's good looking as every other guy has told her so already. And if you're going out with her she already knows you're into her so there's no need to get all soppy by giving her unwarranted compliments.

Stick to the small ones like 'you've got sexy eyes' or 'I could just bite your ass' lol

I ****ing sent it. Oh well, im sure one small booboo wont kill it. And if it does, good riddance I say

She replied with im glad I make you feel that way asked how im doing etc. I could probably work with that and make it into an innuendo. Drawing blanks though, lacking sleep. Anyone wanna innuendo-ise that for me? I never usually ask people to talk for me but tbh dont really care right now

I'd probably say something like 'Would be better if i was waking up next to you ;)'
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"I havnt really ever been sappy or mushy with her because its pretty early in the relationship."

Is is never ok to be sappy or mushy.

Did you have sex with her?

Why are you initiating any text with her except to ask for or confirm dates?

Why are you using cliche words like beautiful - and twice in the same sentence? A lot of girls say "I know" when you tell them they are beautiful.

Your inner wuss is showing itself.

"She replied with im glad I make you feel that way"

Translation:
Eh, whatever, uh, I should thank him or something.

Complementing through texts really doesn't do you any good.

Your first mistake was coming to this forum for dating advice.

Say whatever you want. To whoever you want.
 

"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.

Oh nooo I called a girl beautiful its the end of the world oh noo.

No, but I actually understand what you guys are getting at. I felt like ***** boy mcgee when I sent it. I think my slow replies and indifference negated that blasphemy though
