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.

This sucks, I have been invited to a friends wedding and yep, I have nobody
to take. Lame.

I can't not go, I would feel like a ****.

So this sucks... advice? Should I be feeling as stupid as I do? I am not
feeling good about this. :( :eek:
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

What is the problem here? What is so bad about going alone? Because somebody else told you so? That is just insecurity.

Why is being an unmarried man "lame" ?

Do you define yourself through other people?

dude...weddings really are gold if you go as as single. You are automatically put at a table with mostly other singles and so you have an "in". Just try to have fun and you never know who you are going to meet. Girls at weddings when they are single are hornier and looking for action and fun.
 

"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.

Why would you want to bring a c0ckblocker with you to a wedding???

The only person I'd bring with me to a wedding would be a kickazz wingman! Just like in Wedding Crashers.

I've been to weddings with a date and without, and I can tell you that without is the way to go! Single, horny chicks getting drunk and thinking about how romantic it would be if she met him at a wedding! Even if my date was my girlfriend at the time, I would be thinking "That girl over there has it for me...dammit why did I bring her?" Trust us man, the guy with a date is bored out of his mind.

"He that bringeth cannot taketh away." Even if the guy with a date gets laid, what's the fun in that? He's probably tired of it by now anyway. You go in Commando style and seize them, one man's night of concession to women becomes your night of conquest!

I could go on, but...just go there and act like you've already f*cked them, you're golden

I went to a wedding recently and was debating whether to bring a date or maybe a good wing. I ended up going alone and man....what an awesome time I had. Sooooooo many hot single women there and while some were there to chill, others were clearly trolling for ****. Go alone and make sure you dress to impress!

Thanks for the replys, I guess I'm kind of looking at a date as some what of a security blanket.

I just picture everybody with somebody except me. I got the wrong picture in my head.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Welcome to the toxic, soulless, hateful country of America. In America, going out alone makes you look like a loser to everyone, and you stay alone. American women especially see a man all by himself, and they think; "Ah ha! Rapist! Sex predator! Serial killer! Terrorist! Kidnapper! He's escaped from prison! He's profiled on America's most wanted! Where there's smoke, there's fire!" They also especially say things like; "Stay away from him! Nobody wants to be his friend! He's a loser!" America's toxic, hateful culture only caters to families and closed cliques.

In most other countries, going out alone is okay, and oftentimes, you will not be alone for long. The social scene in most other countries is not confined to closed cliques like it is in the United States of America aka the U.S. of Hate, and people in most other countries will easily open up to new people.

Single chicks mixed with booze and dancing. One of the highlights of my single career was f****** a bridesmaid in a garden shed at a wedding. And no I didn't marry her.

do a 30 day challenge. Even when not on a 30day challenge you should be doing Julien's 3x approach a day. Obv, at bars and clubs you go on a rampage but even a trip to the office, 3 approaches is not a difficult thing to do. Acquire digits and vet one for the wedding. If you go alone which I have done before, single women make themselves available.

I've easily had my best luck while going to wedding receptions alone (I typically don't go to the church ceremony, LOL). It's like there are is a whole level of woman that seems to never be out & about anywhere else. And I think that single gals get more motivated just by being at a function where another gal is finally getting a husband. The typical b!tch shield seems to be out of commission, although getting the phone number can still be a low probability event. Also, I've had good experiences macking up hot, mature-for-their-age 15 or 16 year old chicks :eek:, although obviously I could not go in for the kill. :rolleyes: My friend who was a 33 year old virgin :eek: at the time met his wife at a wedding (of course, he had to be led to the water like a very uninterested horse, LOL).
