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.

Yesterday we made out at a club (we know each other because we made out about a month ago) and I was acting like a total DJ in the beggining and I am sure she felt very attracted.

BUT...yesterday I started following her around and everything...anyway, I asked her to be with me and what does she think of us two being together? She said she was indeifferent to that but also said yes that we can try...after that I was really starting to be an AFC because I acted very interested while she didn't.

Here where I live in Croatia, supposed DJ's are guys who in the beggining give the woman much attention till she falls for him and then they act all indifferent and everything!

WHAT DO I DO TO RESTORE MY VALUE BUT STILL NOT LOSE HER??? IS IT TOO LATE?
 

"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.

It's funny, because in America we call that chasing an AW (trying to win her over and then she acts indifferent after showing initial interest).

Since i'm assuming AW is a global thing, don't show any interest now whatsoever! It will get her crazy thinking why and she'll contact you. From that point, always be in the driver's seat.

I don't understand thos "always be in the drivers seat"?

After all I am not American.
 

"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.

The expression "to be in the driver's seat" means to be in control. The man should always have control. A woman tries to get it, and it is the core of what makes you a challenge for a woman. It's a test...if you give up control, she won't see you as a man.

By asking for a relationship, you gave her the power to choose, and thus put her in the driver's seat. Challenge finished, girl moves on.

I'd prepare to find another girl, but it's possible she will contact you. For now, you must ignore her. Every time you contact her now is another nail in the coffin. Ignoring her MIGHT restore your value. Her "accidentally" seeing you out with another attractive woman would be even better . But in either case, the next move must be hers. If she contacts you, she demonstrates her interest and by doing so surrenders her control back to you.

Your odds aren't good, however. Maybe you'll get lucky, but I'd prepare to move on. If you do get control back, make sure you keep it.
