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.

i've had co-workers ask me if i'd like to join the lottery pool and i'd always decline. i just read in the news paper about seven co-workers who won the $315,000,000 mega millions and how there was a possible eighth person who might share as well. apparantly, that eighth person usually pitches in consistently but for some reason he wasn't at work the day they all collected for the pool. sadly, the lucky seven decided not to add that eighth person to the winnings. damn, that eighth person is probably hating life right now. i'm in the next time a co-worker asks me to join.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
