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.

Just kinda felt like posting this to learn from this experience.

Go ahead and share your thoughts or suggestions.


Went on a date with a Sophmore, im a Junior.(High School) She was ok... I dont like to use numbers, but she was up there. We originally planned to ski but she called and told me she didnt want to anymore, she may have been trying to flat out cancel, but I decided we should go to a resturant instead.

When I got to the resturant, I met her and her mom. Her mom left when we sat down. Talked about random crap, I made fun of her a lot and she seemed to think I was funny. We then took a walk around the park, and finished off by going to a coffie shop.

Unfortunely, I would say it was pretty bland. I've seen more sexual tension in a convent. Conversation was really G rated... we talked mostly about food and school. :/

There was very little kino to speak of. I think I touched her twice all evening. Walking through the park I kinda took her arm in mine, but it was awkward and I stopped, saying it looked like we were from the 1800s.

So thats about it. I guess I came off as really non-sexual and asking for a LJBF, even though I wanted to do more with it. Next time I really have to push myself to get out of the small talk and esclate the kino BIG TIME.

I guess its good experience just having a date, but I dont want to practice a sh1tty game, you know?
 

"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.

LJBF is "Lets Just be Friends"
-- its basically when the girls uses you as one of her female friends, dumping her problems and wants on you.

Kino (Kinestetics) is just a word for touch: Going to a movie and putting your arm around a chick is Kino, tickling a girl is Kino, heck, I guess kissing could be considered Kino.

Welcome to the forum, btw. :)

this reminds me of a REALLY bland date from a while back that fits the thread better than yours does. I would make a new thread but this is more of a flashback.

So about a year and a half ago one of my buds asks for a favor, he wondered if i would go out on a date with one of his girlfriend's friends with them to a drive in movie. Now he has excellent taste in women, so thinking; what could go wrong, this sounds like a kickass night, i accept.

Now he showed me her myspace or something before the date, and her profile picture was a group of 5 or so girls, they all look pretty cute. So far, so good.

So night comes and me and him are driving out to pick up his girlfriend, who lives a short while out of town. So were both pumped the whole way there cause it was gonna be an awesome night, as long as my strict-ass parents didnt call worrying. We get to his girl's house, and then leave his car (saab)at her house cause not much room for people, and take hers over to my blind dates house....

Fast forward, were at the girl's house and I see two girls; one sorta hot brunnette, and one bland blond who is slightly overwieght. Now everything up until this point was great, but i knew that one of those chicks had a boyfriend since this was a group date, and who would you guess that would be? This was not my idea of spending my saturday night.

So we all squeeze in to the bland chicks jeep, which was a little scary to ride in. Throughout most of the trip i had to hold the rear side door from flying open, and i could see the highway through the door crack. So we get there and i dont even think i talked to this bland chick once.

The whole time my bud is apologizing and asking how he can make it up to me. haha; "zubs, i seriously had no idea"-thats how bland she was. He did make it up to me with another one of his girl "favors" so its alright.

Two words to describe my entire night: third wheel.
 

"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.
