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.

How to get shy girls....?

I'm having problems with this one girl. I can talk to the HB10 girls in school, and flirt and make em chase me, but I'm not that interested in em for w/e reason, usualy just weird girls with nothing to be interested other than looks.

So this girl I actually wanna date (prob a 6.5, not very hot, shes kinda cute though) is really, really shy. I approach her, and in person, shes just, fricken quiet, but shows some interest, smiles and stuff. If I talk to her on the computer, she is completely different. Mabye I Intimidate her, because shes not use to guys like me. She has never approached me in person though.

The other day the girl I like's best friend asked me if I like her, because she said shes been talking about me quite a bit. I said "I Don't know, I've only talked to her a few times", and asked if she liked me. Her friend kept teasing me with the answer, but didn't say it.

The day after, I ask her friend for her number, so I can ask her out randomly, and send her flirty texts and stuff (girls love texting btw). Her friends like, nah, I think it would be better if you asked her yourself, trust me thats the better thing to do.

She said she wouldn't tell her friend, but I highly doubt this lol, girls tell eachother everything. But Did I make a bad mistake by asking her friend for her number?


Now what do I do, I've talked to her like 2-3 times in person for like 5 minutes, so its too early to ask her out, high schools weird like that.

Before I screw anything up big time, what now. I think shes interested, but I keep thinking I ****ed up somewhere, but I overthink stuff way too much.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Makes sense. Ill keep at it.

Btw, by Seize the Day, do you mean the song by A7X, because thats a sick song.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

you're probably analyzing her every interaction she makes with you...how why when where she said or did this....
you can't read her mind...you can't know all the circumstances...she looked your way...maybe there was an alpha behind you...she said hi...maybe she was acknowledging your friendship...if you don't have one..perhaps she was feeling so happy and random from being asked out....

Don't bother looking for ioi's...keyword LOOKING..
ioi's are good...but not when you search for them...
ioi's are things that you sense...BUT
if you're an afc...you probably don't get much action...thus, you'll probably take everything as an ioi

what are you thinking for? why do you need to know she's interested first?
what do you fear?

first of all i recommend that in the future you take out the middle man (ie her friend). Having them in almost portrays that you don't have the balls to talk to her about ur relationship to be.

Secondly, if a friend randomly asks if you like so and so, its a dead give away your in.

Finally, if the girls so shy go and start talking to her or else when you start going out things might get a little awkward.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

The key to shy girls is making them comfortable. The way to make them comfortable really is kino. I find that shy girls take a lot more offense to teasing than non shy girls so you probably shouldn't tease her as much until you can get really really comfortable with her.

I almost went out with her friend before, and her friend has a boyfriend. Or do you mean take out, as get rid of.

So, if she is getting her friend to ask, she likes me? She did say she talks about me a lot too.

And yeah I need to talk to her more for sure.

I get this problem too... especially skeptical girls, shy or not. Girls that overthink everything or are skeptical reck me, like asking why i want to do/do such and such, like shut the **** up you're ruining whatever might have been there.

Also if they're being quiet/reserved i feel like i'm killing my, i don't want to say alphaness but I can't think of a better word, by trying to engage her specifically when other girls are there.
 

"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.
