What do you think about a HB 8 who has a boyfriend, still thinks about her ex-boyfriend (and make out with him sometimes) and have a crush on another guy (that's me)? Does the words "attention *****" came to your mind too? 
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.
