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.

That a girl would NOT want to date and thus turn down a guy that is too good looking, popular, succesful, or any combination of.. because of fear that he will eventually leave her?

Does that happen or is that idea a bunch of horsesh*t?
 

"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.

Yes it is true
All girls cannot handle all the guys. Girls have lots of insecurities.
they are scared of getting hurt.

Bullsh.......If brad Pitt asked her out on a date she wouldn't turn him down.

That is an excuse to get out of the Date...

^^^^^ the above theory works, any chick will say yes.
he was talking about a chick who got insecurities. a chick who's self confidence is very low and got hurt by guys dumping her.

Yeah, I can actually identify with some of the crazy behavior that women exhibit out of insecurity.

Every once in a while I'll be inconsiderate towards a girl I'm dating just to make sure that she's not only sticking around while she's getting treated very well. I mean everyone needs to be treated well (maybe everyone was an over-statement), but some women expect to be treated like a princess all the time and will act the part as long as they're getting more than they're putting in.

Seeing that kind of behavior (testing her willingness to tolerate my inconsiderateness), which is out of the insecurity that a woman might be dating me for the 'perks' or 'treatment' rather than because she and I really jive, makes me better able to understand why women go to the extreme of putting a man through the ringer, and even breaking up with him, in order to feel like they're in control of things and to reassure themselves that he really wants to be with them. If she breaks up with him and he walks away, then she tells herself that she did the right thing, because if he came back to her then he'd really have wanted to be with her in the first place.

I'm not saying it makes perfect sense, but I can understand that damaged women do that kind of stuff.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Ya girls can be the exact opposite of guys

we tend to aim higher most of the time than we can score

girls tend to aim lower than what they can score because of fear of loosing their partner

its a good cycle really, its balanced like yin yang

I was on POF the other night and somehow managed to send an email to a chick I didn't want to--she was this 45 year old little jewish woman. She said something like, "Thanks, you seem great, but you're a little too handsome for me. I'm looking for an average looking man for a long term relationship." I sh!t you not, it was funny.

I think women who are looking to "hook up" will bang hot guys, but women looking for LTRs will lower their sights because they know through experience that the hotter guys will cheat on them or leave them or even just treat them poorly.
