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'm not sure what to do here. I have a good rapport with this girl, as I've known her for years, but as soon as I became receptive to her increasing interest in me, she went cold. Said she didn't want to ruin our great "friendship" (I didn't realize that years of fluff talk and her flirting hard with me in front of her boyfriends, her ex-boyfriends, my friends, her friends, barkeeps, small animals, children, priests (dirty fvckers!) or alone, and me pretending like I wasn't interested counted as a great friendship. I mean, it's not like we ever sat around drinking cognac's in the study, discussing film, literature or the world's socioeconomic problems or anything.).

Basically, if anyone's ever seen the movie Head On, it was like when the two characters (who were involved in a fake marriage, and went about sleeping with whoever they picked up at a club that night), almost have sex, but the girl says "We can't do this, because they we'll officially be husband and wife", or some such. It's kinda like that, only instead of me going to jail for murder, I went AFC and now she seems to think I need her and that hole between her legs.

Now I've spent the last few weeks becoming increasingly vexed and despondent over the situation. I can't focus on anything, co-workers ask me if I'm "In love" (eww!), I blow off other girls left and right, and all I can think about is her.

I haven't spoken with her since saturday, and I don't plan on calling her anytime soon. I've deleted her number to avoid cracking and sending a text message when I'm drunk. If she calls me this weekend I'll try not to answer it, even though I have a habit of answering without checking the ID, but if I do "I'm busy tonight.".

Is this the way to go about things, hoping for the best, or should I just call her a ***** in public and be done with it?
 

"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.

clasic example of interest in only the chase....

she wanted u when she didnt know were she had u but when she knew that u were interested she didnt want u that much , and thats when u really wanted her cuz ur the one after her now...
Its the cat and mouse game that we all fall into once in a while... even i have had that happen to me, but stupid me i spent one year chasing the same tail...

my oppinnion is that u just need to forget about her and move on cuz a situasion like that will only further mess up ur life...

uhm my opinion ... she's an AW...move on she's not worth it and it seems as if you have made the right decision. Do not call her a btch because that would be lowering yourself to her level

Oh man...RUN!

Trust us... Your feelings for her may linger for a little while but soon enough you will find a woman who is 10x better then her and this girl will give you a chance unlike your current AW.

Crank up the C+F, be a real smartarse to her & always do it with a smile on your face

She'll be back

Whether she'll want a relationship or not is out of my sight
