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.

There is this girl who is giving me very strong IOIs. She's challenging me to bring my friends and do something with her and her (girl) friends, it's like a sports challenge. I don't know what to do. There is this giant block in my brain. I know what I'm supposed to do, the main goal of this post is not to find out how I should deal with her specifically (asking her out on an action date with lots of opportunities for challenging activities sounds like a good alternative to me). I want to know how to deal with my brain.

I have this mental block in my brain. It's the very essence of AFC. I'm scared of her. I've been scared of 90% of the girls that I've found interesting. I'm scared that I'll make a fool of myself and I'm scared that others will find out. I know that my problem is bad confidence and caring too much of what other people think, and that this is mostly because of inexperience. I don't generally have bad confidence, but it's very bad in dealing with girls that I'm interested in. It's like my weak spot. I love all the other areas of my life.

The first time I visited this site was 4 years ago. It has helped me in many ways, but not in dealing with girls. How go I get out of this bad circle? I've read the bible many times, I've read a lot of e-books and stuff on the internet, so believe me when I say I know how the game works theoretically. My problem is that I can't get myself to act, I've even tried getting very drunk to get myself to act, but it doesn't help. I still don't approach or when I do I'm too drunk to be able to speak so that they understand. This thing is very deeply rooted inside my brain. The only way to succeed for me right now is if the girl does all the work, and how often does that happen? :)

If anyone can give advice, please do! If anyone else felt like I do, but managed to get out of it, drop me a pm if you don't want to post how you succeeded here!
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Try ecstacy.

But if you know exactly what to do, but aren't doing it, there's nothing we can say. Stronger drugs (X) or proffessional help may be in order.
