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.

Where the hell did Scaramouche go? Hasn't logged in for almost 6 weeks now... Does anyone know more about this?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

PairPlusRoyalFlush, I had originally added a similar Bible Belt comment in my OP, but I decided to take it out.
Like most of us, I believe that he has turned AFC and is making the wrong choices in his situation, but that doesn't mean we should make fun of him.

Anyway, I really hope Scara is still alive...

A joke, of course. Although I'm never opposed to individuals bleeding gov't dry. Unfortunately though, I'll have to pick up the slack.
Maybe a tips&tricks section on offshore banking, tax evasion, paying less or no child support and general advice on leeching the system is an idea? Head it is as "For the man who's gone full poolside". Something we can pass on to our own boys one day (the ones we agreed on actually having as an individual in a 2 way decided partnership I mean.)
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Dear All,
Oh ye of little faith,truly is it said "A prophet is not without honour saving in his own Land"...In a Pilgrimage worthy of Paul I have been spreading the good word throughout the Eastern Lands...China and the Phillipines mainly,though I spent a magic week at Frazers hill in Malaysia...All is well,though my Pvrick is in a splint,consider me one of the walking wounded,battered but unbowed....So I will post about some interesting times in a little while
