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.

So i was at this art show for my school, i get extra credit points if i went there for art so i went, and I saw this HB6.5 so this is how the convo went

(shes looking at pictures)
Me: Hey, did you draw any of these pics
her: No, my paintings arent as good enough to get in here
me: oh, well I like to do some drawing in my spare time, and I take art in school
her: oh cool
me: so whats your name
her: Lisa
me: hm, interseting, can i get your
her: oh im sorry but im GAY

i just walked away and left the place after she said that

thats the biggest burn ever, saying that she was gay, holy ****.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

He's no troll, just a waste of a ****ing life.

Your probally uglier than her retard. That or.. mabye you should ask for her number after you say one sentence.. ever thought of that?

You have to feel it between you two.. asking random girls you see in class for a number.. they are obviously going to joke around like that.

Your a ****ing retard.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

6.5???

Why are you wasting time with chicks that aren't even cute. That's like buying a car with bad brakes. Anyway where you effed up at is that you didn't build any rapport. You went immediately for the "close." You should've complimented her drawing style, from there build some rapport then close.

That wasn't a bad rejection. This is a bad rejection.

Rex: Hello? Is Raphonya in?. (I know. Black Chicks and their names)
Rephonya: Speaking. Who's this?
Rex: Rex. What's up? How are you doing?
Rephonya: Fine. Say can you call me back? I'm doing something.
Rex: OK.
I call back five minutes later.
Rex: Hello, is Rephonya in?
Rephonya: she answers I'm sorry, but you have the wrong number.

Another bad rejection was when I was trying to holler at this chick. Every time I called her she was short with me on the phone. Even though I've kicked it at her house a few times. This was a conversation I had with her sister.

Rex: Is Keisha in?
Keisha's Sister: Yes. Who is this?
Rex: Rex.
Keisha's Sister: WHY DO YOU KEEP CALLING HERE?
DON'T YOU KNOW THAT SHE DOESN'T WANT YOU!!!



Those proceeding two are examples of bad rejections. What you experience was par for the course and comes to be expected. Who knows maybe babygirl was actually a dyke.

I am honestly curious: when did that whole thing get started, and how? Sounds like the names in some low-budget fantasy movie - or maybe I just make that comparison because I'm into fantasy lit.

Hey guys, im new to these forums, but i have a bit of experience with women, though im no pro, but what bvbidd says is WAY true, don't feel bad about rejection cause thats a part of life, but girls may think your a bit creepy when you ask em so directly for their number you will get shut down (most of the time). Take it easy next time :cool:

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

You asked the girl what her name was, and then asked if you could get her number. Why would she want to give you her number? What rapport have you made with her? None whatsoever, its obvious why you got shut down man. This post makes me sad.

I was 19 when this unfortunate incident happened. My Granny was hosting a baby shower for some extended family. My cousin came with this really hot chick. Somehow it got out that I was interested in her, and the next thing I know I'm sitting in the living room with this and the whole baby shower is waiting for me to close. It was extremely uncomfortable for the both of us. I sat there with literally nothing to say. If she had any interest in me, she probably lost it during the course of my "inactivity.

The thing is, if she wasn't interested, why did she give me her phone number? Go figure.

If you got a kick out of that one. Read this, http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?t=73178 I did this after knowing better.

Your mistake was trying to get her number without first establishing rapport. When you asked her, you were a complete stranger trying to get her personal information. I dunno about you, but that (even if it was a hb) would creep me out.

Next time try talking to her for a bit longer.
 

"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.
