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.

I don't even know what to say when they start conversations

"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.

Use the ignore button if you take issue with the OPs threads; that’s what the button is there for.
Eh, I don't get agitated or anything. I've never felt the need to ignore anyone except my exes. And I'm not even good at that lol

"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.

Asperger's like a mfer
Because I don't want male friends?

I am 100% sure you are not qualified to diagnose anything and probably barely even know what you are talking about.

Even talking to YOU for 3 seconds, I can already tell I wouldn't want to be your friend. Why would I be stupid enough to think that other guys are on my side? That's not how the world works, little boy.

are we really going to let people like this take over the whole group? I have Tenacity(an admitted BPD) on ignore already.
So put me on ignore and don't respond to me. You're going to reply to my thread to insult me, then whine like a baby.

I'm already having to censor myself from telling you what I really think so I don't get kicked off.

Richard, one reason you are struggling with this is that you are very mechanical in your thought processes. You seem to look for immediate, pragmatic value or payoff in a given interaction, rather than using these interactions to hone your social skills. Your problem is not looks, but rather you are telegraphing your mechanical way of viewing others.

Think of yourself as a precision blade, and you can sharpen yourself and hone your craft (the craft of smooth social interaction) by engaging in small-talk. The "payoff" has little to do with individual interactions but everything to do with turning yourself into a man who can socialize smoothly over time.

What precisely did this woman at the store say?

It's unfortunate that you think this way because it is far from the truth. I met probably one of my best friends to this day after my divorce. He's redpill/game aware as you can get but has ZERO awareness what RP is or even SS for that matter. Natural through trial and error etc, pretty much what I like to call it.

So anyway he's extremely social, confident guy and would introduce me to woman all the time. He'd even be out with some random chick and say hey meet me at xyz we'll watch some hockey. At first I thought it was weird cause he'd be on a date but man that shït was fun. There were even times were he would tell me hey man if your interested in so & so go for it.

Hands down the best wingman I've had no doubt and will be a life long friend of mine. And NO we never tag teamed a chick, but there was 1 chick that asked us but hell NO not interested.

So only reason he's your friend is because he can do something for you.

Compliments help, “yeah I really like this song who is it by? Oh ok I usually like XYZ kind of music. That’s a cute jacket you have on, so where are you off to today?”

It’s just about being confident and relaxed, one day a switch flicked inside me and I came super outgoing, I’d had enough of overthinking and living inside my head. When that switch flicks it never goes back off.
 

"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.
