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.
Ever had a g/f like this?

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Aha! I've been wondering when someone would post this!
There's a lot of moments in there that made me cringe out of familiarity... and I found this site through KX's epic thread about BPD a while back. Love that series.
I blame my poor judgement on the sex :yes:

That was genius. An exact capture of the female psyche, with a perfect revelation of a woman's typical motivation at the end.MatureDJ said:

I've got to stop watching these. They're scaring me a little. They are so spot-on it's amazing. Kudos to the writer/director. Althought they portray the extreme, we all know these traits are found in every woman. I think I'll clear my pallette with some Battlefield II.

wow. flashbacks.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

...and that my friends is why you should never, put all your eggs in one basket with one girl. They are (almost) all capable of turning into that.
