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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Take it as a vitally important lesson to be learned, and don't make the same mistake again. You gave up everything to be with her - now you have nothing, and don't know anybody. And you can't leave.

About the only thing you can do is accept the situation you put yourself in, and adapt. Go out and date other people. Start getting connected with others. Get a life. Be social. Go out. Stop depending on her for everything. Accept that its over. Drill it in your mind that it is. She's just a roommate at this point - one you don't need to talk to beyond house issues.

Do NOT date other people with the intention of getting her back. She's no longer a prospect for dating. Don't even think about being together anymore.

of course you can move out

it might make your life hard, but not as hard as your life will be if you stay there with her

and yeah, when you follow a girl to another city or state specifically to be with her, you surrender all your power to her and then surprise surprise! she is no longer attracted to you

the right girl will move for you or stay for you. the woman is supposed to follow the man, not the other way round

Stupid question.

Move out. And if you can't, then shut up and live with it until you CAN move out.

What else can people tell you? Next question...

I knew a guy that moved in with his girlfriend, they broke up, he starting dating some real hot girl and was banging her in the house they both lived in while she just had to sit there and take the punishment. How's that for a sh*ty situation...
 

"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.

He might be on the lease. How can he move out, then? If so, thats another lesson to be learned.

If not, move back to wherever you came from.

If he's on the lease, and the girl doesn't like him then she'll be happy to let him leave and find a roommate. Unless I'm supposed to believe that she HATES him, but somehow still wants to live with him. But I'm not dumb enough to believe that, right?

Besides, I think he got all the help he needed in his other thread about this topic

Beyond that, I don't think there's much that can be added. And I'm already having my doubts about this guy's credibility.

You're putting too much faith into women, there. Some of them DO like to see men suffer after the break-up, and gloating about it. Some of them are crazy. Some of them like keeping people around that they hate - be it as friends, or ego boosts, or roomates, or husbands. Some of them simply do dumb **** in general. So on and so forth.
