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.

Does anyone felt this?

Hey guys,

I am an educated guy, nice car, job and everthing. Still I always need reassurance that I am good enough.

For few days, I would feel good abt myself (during that time I am good with gals and anyone else per sake) but when I am feeling down, I do everything worng. Speak what I am not supposed to, make foolish jokes (that offend a person), feel that I am useless. And I observe that I go through these phases in a cycle.

Has anyone else felt the same?

Is there a way to overcome this?
 

"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.

What you are experiencing is pretty common. Talk to a therapist about it (not a shrink).

WOW!!!! that is exactly how i feel. my problem is that in my buisness (i'm a mortgage broker) i'm all commision. i've been in the buisness for almost 2 years and i just recently started making money. i was very happy before i started making all this money. i get so stressed out for no reason at all. i have nothing to be down about, i live at home and have no real expences. i'm 20 years old, i drive a bmw 540i, and i make 6 figures a year. i guess i'm just scared of how i'm going to survive in the real world, and that i'm not guaranteed a set salary. i smoke a lot of weed just to calm me down. i'm hoping this is just a faze. otherwise i should see a therapist or something.

You might want to knock the "weed" smoking out. That shyt isn't good for anyone. Get high on life.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

It may not be bipolar, there's also a thing called unipolar. Bipolar occurs in cycles at like 3 weeks to 6 (if I remember correctly). Unipolar can be a day to day thing.

I had a roommate who was crazy, at first I thought bipolar, then unipolar, turned out he was schizo.

See a doctor about it, if its really a problem for you. Or smoke lots of weed, thats always worked for me.

unamean....you make six figures and you are 20.....dude, can you school me on how you do so well......

Hey great question by the way, I just want to point out and I could be wrong, but Attitude is everything....and at times, circumstances arise that try to make us feel down, whether they be persecuation, or just oour own mistakes........keeping a positive attitude keeps you focused and upbeat....even in a stressful environment.

Paranoia is one of the effects of the weed smoking.

sony007 - need of reassurance is normal. Does it interfere with your life significantly? how?

well not significantly. but it does. when i m down, i feel bad abt myself. hate everyone. cant take jokes or bull **** from anyone. feel like angry. I might not seem as bad as i sound cause everything is goin on inside the mind.

but when i m feeling good, i have this feeling that i can conquer the world.

i dont smoke (weed or anything). i dont drink (at all) either.
 

"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'm a psychology major. Actually, unipolar is just another word for regular depression. See, bipolar (bi meaning two) means there are two poles to the disorder: up (manic) and down (depressed). Unipolar (uni meaning one) means there's just one pole: depressed.

"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.
