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.

Try this...

Make a list of the 10 best moments over the last 2 years in your personal life.

the Ten moments you felt the greatest..

You will be suprised.

As for me, I decieded to do it, and I found out that every few had to do with women.

I think 2 out of ten.

More times than not, it was a great time that my friends and I had, or something we got into that was too funny, or just a night we had a blast.

Just something to chew on...
 

"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.

1) (Getting the girl out of the way) Yeah... Her.
2) Graduating. Especially the all-night party we had after where I got to see all my friends one last time.
3) Getting the weightlifting basketball players together one last time and playing one last game. Especially sense we never saw each other again.
4) Stepping on the scale and seeing the numbers "164". I used to weigh 210 lbs.
5) The party's (minus one)
6) My friend, Charles. I miss that guy.
7) The make out sessions and one night stands. :)
8) Getting my permit (I honestly thought I was going to fail the test. Especially sense I got the first 4 questions wrong). I procrastinated it so long but it was on top of the list's of my goals. It felt great to finish one of my goals for once.
9) The original insomniac club. But mostly, my friend Justin.
10) Handgela and Damn ***** Productions. A comedy website my friend Steve and I made. Along with it's complimentary websites. HandDBP: Punk'd Online (IM Pranks) and HandDBP: The Challenge.

... That **** was hard. Don't make me do it again. :)
