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.

Is it a good move to let girls know you are dating around? For example, i have been talking to a girl who is hot and cold with me--so i quit pursuing and started dating another girl. Old girl contacts me and i tell her i'm out with another hottie.

This just happened this weekend, so i have yet to see any results. Is this something that is necessary to raise interest or was is it pointless to let former girl know my current business/situation?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

How did she react to you telling her that? The way you said it, it sounds like you were telling her it's too late and goodbye. Which is fine, but if you want to spin her plate too, then I think you should have been more subtle and implied that you had other options instead of stating it bluntly. Get her mind churning and let her believe that there might be competition. I think it's better to be ambiguous about it because if you state it bluntly it's alot easier for her to just come to terms that you've moved on so she should too.

Yeah, I'd like to know what happens. I'm in the same situation. I've known this girl for awhile (through my friends, but she's not a close friends to me). She's been sending me mixed signals, but I'm holding back to move in until I'm more sure she's into me (b/c she's in my friend's circle, and I don't want to create an akward situation), so I'm taking a date to a party she's going to be at to gauge her reaction next weekend.
