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.

Hey ya'll

So I work as a server at a restraunt and I was thinking of ways to get on the "good side" of some of the girls there. Well, more like all of them to be exact. I was thinking about buying a buqquet of rose for valentines day and giving a rose to every girl who works in the restraunt (including the lowely disfigured dishwashers in thr back). Theres a few girls I want to get with there butdon't have the balls to straight up ask out because getting rejected at work sucks and I can't read how they feel about me. Sometimes I think they like me other times I think "wow, definitely not attracted anymore." due to work stress and what not.

What do you think? Is this an original idea or completely afc?
 

"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.

I think you should stop sitting at home thinking of ways to get laid

If you want to do it, then do it. You don't know future results and their ramifications without doing the action.

Textbook definition of AFC.

Just because you buy them a rose for Vday, you expect them to screw you? You are planning on winning them with roses? Just because you spend money on rose, they owe you something like maybe a date?

And remember. Don't poop where you eat. Stay away from work romance. Like you said, it will create too much drama and jeopardize your job.
 

"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.

It's more of a push/pull tactic, I'm a relate ******* at work sometimes and I do not supplicate. Just because I'm buying flowers and giving them away you mystery method sheep clasify it as AFC. Judging by some of the responses it doesn't sound like any of you have thought about it. I'm not focusing on any one girl here, I'm trying to build a good reputation by being generous just for the sake. There's no neediness if I give it to ALL the girls

Now....how about some responses from someone who's not a chronic masterbater.

no need to flame ;) lol but there's basically two schools of thought here. a) it's afc and comes across as needy and demonstrates low value. b) you do what you want and you don't care what others think of you. im not even gonna offer advice because it sounds like you've already made up your mind honestly. you just have to make a decision.

LOL - to the OP, nice name.

Very... chemical.
 

"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.

Valentine's Day is just another day. You need to find the one you want, and then work on her, flirting, kino, asking her on a date, ect. You can fool around at work if it's just a BS waiter job. If you are the Supervisor at IBM it's a different story.

I have found the one I want to fukk next, and I have been working on her for 3 weeks now. The flirting is going well. We have a date for Saturday, on Thursday, I am going to send some roses (not a dozen) and green m&ms to her job. I am doing this because her ex is in town, and isnt going to send her anything, so me sending her something will make her day a little brighter. THEN, once I have some drinks in her on Saturday, I am going to sing "Careless Whisper" to her, and see where the night goes. The last time I sang that, and looked into a woman's eyes, she was kissing me passionatley afterwards.

The last time I did it, I tried it on a drunk "9" at the bar with her friends, and looked right into her eyes as I sang it to her, in front of the whole crowd. She and her friends were so impressed that she rewarded me by sticking her tongue down my throat after the song. She had a boyfriend, so that never really went anywhere, but it did rile up and trigger all the other women at that bar.
