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.

OLD. Been chatting since yesterday and spoke for the majority of today. Not just brief texts but full page ones back and forth. Now, I want to meet asap but she's just came out of hospital and can't meet for possibly 2 weeks. How do I sustain her interest for that long? I don't want to talk too much as it takes away the mystery and there'll be nothing to discuss when we meet. If I flake a bit, she might back off. It's just hard to sustain until we meet. Ideally we need to have met this weekend but it's out of our hands. How to proceed with this? We get on quite well and there is something there.
 

"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.

You don't... Just tell her to let you know when she's available then forget about her. If she reaches out, make a date and see what happens. Make dates with other girls until she reaches out, you make a date, and she keeps it... then you like her... she should be nothing to you. Don't over think sh!t. It's online dating, so you are likely just one of a dozen dudes that are hitting her up... you should assume you really don't mean that much to her.

Go out, talk to girls. Sheeesh, you can't even be certain, she's a girl!

 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
