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 have a deep voice that just blends in with any noise thats going on and makes me impossible to hear. I am fine in one on one conversations but the more people the harder it is to conversate. .. in conversations i am usually interupted or asked to repeat myself. Anyway enough whining, i was just wondering if anyone else has this problem and how they deal with it. Should i just start yelling at everyone i talk to in group conversations, because my voice kind of gives off a monotone deep boring sound.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Work on your tonality. Smoothen it out, and project more. It may be a good idea for you to get a voice recorder to listen to yourself. The voice recorder is also good for recording sarges. You can listen to yourself after the fact and see what you need work on.

People would be able to hear you more if you talked more slowly.

Yeah I did. What you gotta do is project more at your audience. Whether it's one person or 1,000 you gotta learn to use your stomach and project your voice into them.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Yep PlayerSupreme is right, it's all about projecting from your stomach.

I used to have this problem (and sometimes still do), and found that Mr Fingers' post on voice exercises helped me out a bit.

Also, if you feel outgoing and enthusiastic about whatever you are talking about, it will tend to show through in your voice.

High testosterone levels are reasonably important too. After a workout, my voice feels good, but after say masturbating.....my voice is still deep, but weak at the same time. Anyone else find this?

You have to talk louder. I have the same problem with the deep voice.

If I talk loud enough, it looks like I am acting superior to my boss. If I try to change tonality I come off unconfident.

Gotta get that tape recorder I guess...

"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.

I've had phone calls and people knocking on the door straight after I'm done on some occasions. :D
