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.

Im cracking fellas

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

georgie,

I had a BPD/HPD ex and I cracked. It will eat you alive. It took away a couple of prime years from my life. It can and will ruin you. To think of it as an addiciton and contact is falling off of the wagon.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Don't beat yourself up - what's done is done. You have to resolve not to do it again, though.

Spinning plates is the practice of having more than one woman interested in you at any given time.* It doesn't mean they all have to be sleeping with you. It means you should be cultivating, at any stage, romantic interest from more than one woman. This helps to keep you from disproportionately dwelling on any one woman. It will help you mature emotionally so you can deal with different women. It will help you qualify and select based on what YOU want. And it helps stave off Oneitis, which is what you have. You are consumed by one woman at the expense of your mental well-being and your emotional, personal, and sexual satisfaction.

*Think of each woman as a "plate" that you must keep spinning on the table. You can't possibly pay attention to all plates at all times. When one stops, it's asking for your attention and you are granting it. Get the idea?

yes, since i settled down with this oneitis ive lost desire to purse or go out, dunno were the F to start
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Just learn from your mistakes, Georgie. This won't be the last time you crack, but everytime you crack, you will become a little stronger.

Listen to him georgie24. Trust me, with enough time the scales will fall from your eyes and you'll see the light. You are overrating this girl.

Formulate a plan that will lead to daily improvement intellectually (read more), socially, spiritually and physically (commit to rigorous fitness program).

Good luck.
 

"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.

Go ahead and crack, georgie. That may be your only hope. From the looks of your posts, you've been posting this pathetic garbage since 2003, d*mn near a decade ago. You haven't learned sh*t. You don't listen to the excellent advice given to you.

So do us all a favor and crack. Lose your password to this site too.
