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 really like this girl and I think she likes me also except for one thing. I try to be confident whenever I talk to her, but I am naturally shy and it always shows. I always get really nervous and my heart starts pumping. Also, whenever I talk to her, my face gets blushed and I just feel stupid;it is all just really retarded. This usually only happens around hot girls. Do any of you have this problem and/or have been able to overcome it?
 

"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.

sweeetttt.... same as me.... hmmm usually talk to anyone at school.... i got used to it... and after the third chance she gave me... me and her are talking and things are going pretty good... stay off the comp and phone when talking w/ her...... that usually takes away things to talk about.. if you do talk to her on the comp or phone... cut it short in a minute or two... or until each others points are done and said.

Yes...yes...........and yes. Most of us here have had the same sort of deal. I used to exessively sweat around girls or social situations, be too concerned with how I appeared, and what other people thought of me. I now live my life like im in a video game....which means I act out and do what I want.....just like you would in a video game. A succesful way to overcome this type of fear which stems from anxiety of some sort, is to do a boot camp. I find the boot camp very helpful in progressing your comfort zone, little by little. A lot of us cant just jump into a huge crowd of girls and be the MAN. So the boot camp takes us on our way to becoming the MAN in small incriments.

When you talk to hot girls of course you'll be nervous at first. As time goes on though, you'll get better at it. I kinda like that rush I get though...makes me feel alive

I don't "blush". I've learned to just keep calm now. I used to get nervous though.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
