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 you think women think, "I don't want an AFC..."

Do you think that they think in these terms, when sizing you up? Unless you give overt signs of a dominant male, she'll label you as "not getting IT" or what we'd call "an AFC" and pass on you with the wave of her gloved hand nexting you.

Are we performing for them or them for us? They're the choosers however.
 

"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.

I dont think they think like that at all.

I think their first though is, "would I **** this guy". First based on looks and if they find you attractive. This is done within a few seconds. Then they think about what everyone else would think if they found out that they ****ed you. Cos, like, heaven forbid her social circle disapproved.

Once they start talking to you, then you need to cross off requirements on their checklists. Because they are women, those checklists are not set in stone either. They change like the wind on a cold day. They hold as much weight as flat earth theory. They are rational constructs an emotional creature melds to her whims to suit her hormones and mood.

If at first you fail, then she finds out that you are rich you could be back in the game. Her checklist adjusts. Likewise, if at first you fail and then she sees you making out with a bombshell, you are back in the game. Cos, like if that skank likes you, then you must be, like, Awesome. If at first you fail, and then she finds out that you are a drug dealer and sell stolen bikes, you are back in the game.

They perform for us so that we can give them attention. This is like porn to them. They need that attention to see if we meet their criteria. After that, we are performing for them. If we meet their criteria at that time, we get to smash them.

So much of it is subconscious, it's really a matter of the few conscious details she can discern and process that make or break things.

Thats where some things on this site can come into play.
