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 need help/suggestions ASAP!

This is my first post on here so Hi everyone, anyway heres the scenario.

Ive been dating this girl for about 3 weeks now, we sorta just jumped into the relationship. The more recent problems have been that ive had trouble finding things to do, and initiating conversation. Also, she is a christian girl, she has morals etc...However she recently complained to me about not being affectionate enough or "not making enough moves" what is a good pace/ way to do this without making it too obvious? Another thing, this really irritates me, she seems to find about 1000 things wrong with me everytime we meet, however its mostly when were going out with other ppl. When were alone she hardly says anything at all about it.

My biggest mistake is that i told her i love her already, i with i hadnt said that, I DO love her, however it would have made things less complicated.

ANYTHING AT ALL that will help me is appreciated greatly, I really am into this girl, she is the kind of girl you marry not **** (you know the type) Plz guys, i need input im not very experienced in relationships.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

You screwed up bad...Theres just so much to comment on.

1. What are you looking for (example: LTR)?

2. How old are you?

3. You don't love her, you just have a bad case of one-itis.

4. Read up on being a PUA / DJ.

5. How many times have you went out with her on a 'date'?

6. Having sex is immoral?

7. Have you kissed her yet? Have you gotten further than kissing?

8. What are you doing when she tells you that you have all these problems about you?

9. Is this your first experience with a girl?

10. Again, you don't love her.

11. Judging that this is in the high school forum I am going to assume you are at least 18 or below. So why are you talking about this is the kind of girl you marry? Do you want to marry this broad? Just an FYI, a very high % of high school relationships never result in marriage, and if so they never work out. Not saying that there isn't that rare scenario where they do, but they probably don't.

12. You DON'T love her.

Im looking for a long term as is she

im almost 18

weve gone on prolly about 10 real dates

shes pro abstinence

we have kissed, but she says to take things slowly

i just kind of stand there and try to change the subject when she comments, however if its on the phone/AIM i sorta just agree, although recently we almost broke up because i told her i was sick of how she can only seem to find things wrong with me etc etc.

this is my second experience, the last one was 2 years

Alright, not as bad as I thought.

I think shes playing games when she says to take things slowly. If you attempt to advance things, and she stops you, just don't worry about it and go back to what you were doing before. Wait a bit, then attempt again. If she stops you once again, try for one last time. If she rejects your advances AGAIN then it's time you probably try to talk to her about it. If this is the case, you need to call her on it.

Telling you that you aren't making enough moves and then telling you to take it slow definently sounds odd to me.

Good for you on calling her out about when she says bad things about you. But if she even starts saying ANYTHING, and I mean anything, you must immiedately jump in and tell her to stop.

Also, do you want to initiate in sex? Anyone on this forum can and will vouche for me when I say getting married without having any sexual relations is a VERY bad idea.

Because, if you wan't sex, and she isn't going to give it up till your married...well you may want to find another girl.

I think this girl has too much control of you know, whether or not that can be changed I do not know. I suggest getting her to ligten up (unlikely) and just ending the relationship.

Oh and what did she say when you said you love her?

zod's right in most cases, but for me to u, go more to the "jerk" side. just do it. if she says u arent makin enough moves, then make them when she dont know, but make sure the timing is right.

also, dont call her, u broke up, forget her! if u really like her, make her come back to you somehow, read the dj bible, so you're more in control.

also, U MESSED UP. u said i love u. ouch man. i kinda did tat too but never said it to her face back in the day.

and like zod, yea man wat happend after u said i love u?
 

"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.

Just thought of something.

You do this, say "hey babe, you know the other day when I said I love you?"

She responds, "yes?"

You, "Well, *pausepausepause* I want to tell you what I really meant to say, *pausepausepause*. I meant to say I love *Pausepausepause* your tits"

Yeah, only problem I see is that from what he has said - this chick seems to be really stiff. I get the feeling she would slap him instead of laugh.

But Katsi, try it out if you think her response will be good.

"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.

lol no thats what i mean

really religious protestant girls are often pretty concerned with things like abstinence. the catholic girls are the ones that you would need to....

wait, i just realized that you were right. lmao

maybe i should actually read the post next time...
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

appologies, havnt had time to do much of anything, i pretty much just confronted her on all the issues that had come up, she didnt like that AT ALL! we ended the night with us not speaking to eachother..and it went that way for a few days. Eventually we talked things over, and everything worked out.
 

"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.
