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.

Yo,

What do you guys do, when a chick ignores your text about an second date. Just drop it?
 

"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.

You put the offer out there, why would you pursue after she ignored it?

Speaking from personal experience, definitely move on and delete her number too.
 

"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.

it usually means she's trying to tell you that things aren't going aswell as you think they are

in my experiences once a woman's interested in me she will make virtually 100% of the effort to initate contact

Low interest... move on. Although highly unlikely, it is possible that your text got lost in the mountain of text messages she's been getting through the day. She might have overlooked it... in cases like this, she will eventually reach out to you with some kind of apology... when she does... go ahead and ask her out again if she doesn't counter on the spot. If she answers with anything other than a 'yes' or a legitimate counter-offer because of other plans she might have. Then you need to let this one go and keep on fishing.

DO NOT keep texting her. ASSUME she got your message and she is intentionally ignoring it, when this happens you ignore back. This is just like if you called a woman and asked her out and instead of saying yes or no she just hung up on you... are you going to call her back after such disrespect? No, you are going to be surprised, laugh it off and forget about it. DO NOT get mad... anger is unproductive, and gets you nowhere.

You got to be careful with texts like that. She could use it to show her boyfriend to get more goodies from him.

You are left vulnerable and now you feel nervous. Friday night dinner? I hope you are having sex with this girl. Would have just asked for a coffee near your place.
 

"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.

Guys,

Here's what she sent me last night. I thought it was funny, but can any of you think of a reply that would be in my favor. I'm not going to setup date more then 4-5 days in advance.

Hey! Thanks hope your week is gong well too!! This weekend is packed for me:( I have my best friend coming into town. So probably can't;( Hopefully you have a great fourth.

She is not interested in you NOW, that is for sure.

Anyway, you never know what may happen in the future...so, I would either not reply at all, or just a brief text like:
you: ok, have fun. See you.
And you cease conversations with her unless she initiates.

Wait for about 2 weeks then reply with , "hey sorry who is this?" Then permanently ignore from that moment on.

"No problem, let me know when you're free to catch up"

Then move onto the next girl/s.. If she initiates, great, if not its her loss right.

I also like Roissys style of sending her the birthday cat emoji in situations like this.

As a general rule, you should reach out at least one more time. I sometimes miss text messages or forget to respond when I get busy.

Remember that attractive women live in a different reality than most of us. They are constantly bombarded with attention from girlfriends and thirsty faggots pretty much around the clock. Until I got a high level job and started spinning more plates than ever, I didn't really understand what this was like. Its easy for things to get lost in the shuffle. Very easy.

Just send her a question mark (?) to bump your original message to the top. If she ignores that move on.
