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.

do women ever break it off with guys to test how much you care about them?

do women ever break up with guys they've been seeing just to test how interested he really is in her? (as in if he doesn't come back to chase her then 'he wasn't worth it')

i know on here they say don't chase just no contact but is it just wishful thinking that she is testing you?

i'm assuming if she thinks you're a playa and only interested in her for 1 thing.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

If a girl breaks it off with me I assume she isn't interested and I'll chalk it up as a loss and move on. If a girl thinks that by pulling this nonsense on me she'll increase my interest and I'll come running back to her like a love sick puppy dog then she's in for a surprise. If I want to play games, I'll play FIFA 12 or Monopoly.

i see.. i remember a girl i was seeing back in the day thought i was a playa and broke up with me cos she felt i was only after 1 thing. we hadn't had sex yet so it obviously isn't a break up but her friends told me that she did it to test if i really liked her or not or only after sex. i had other options at the time.

maybe she had a different agenda?
 

"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.

I tend to stay away from people with agenda's. Agenda's are nasty things my friend, nasty things.
