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.

Is she dropping hints?

I just started talking to a girl at work a couple of days ago, and in conversation she asked me if I was married, told me about all of her tattoos and mentioned that she was having one of her ex-boyfriend's name removed soon. I'm going to ask her to hang out regardless, but I was curious as to whether or not these were all subtle hints that she was dropping to let me know she's available.
 

"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.

Well, I probably won't ask her out on a group date as there's really no group to speak of between the two of us, and "dates" aren't really my style. She's kind of a homebody from what I've gathered; I asked her what she was doing this weekend, and she said she has kind of boring life. I suppose that would have been a good time to ask if she wanted to get together.

yes definite signs of interest...asking if you are available, mentioning something personal about her self and telling you covertly she is available. You need to ask her out and show your interest whilst she is open to you.
 

"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.

why are you dating a women at work?

I'm not going to be working there for much longer. Honestly, even if I were, I wouldn't really care.

So, she's without a vehicle at the moment, and when I asked her who was giving her rides to and from work, she said her roommate, which is kind of a pain in the ass because he isn't normally up so early. I told her that I wouldn't mind giving her a ride; she smiled and said she'd keep that in mind and then invited me to hang out with her on her break. I'm taking it slow, but I think I'm on the right track.

Playing games is good, because shes trying to manipulate you. If shes trying to manipulate you, it means you've got something she wants OR she wants to see how you react to her actions.

Okay, if there was NO INTEREST, she wouldn't bother playing games unless she hates you. Does she hate you? ._.

Ha. No, she doesn't hate me. I'm just confused as to why you think there are games being played. Unless you're using that word in a more positive sense. I just always equate games with being somewhat negative.

Women play EMOTIONAL games (why fat guys get good chicks sometimes).
Men play SEXUAL games (why guys go after good looking chicks).
She is playing games just like your playing games, its all a test. And these are words, they may come of as negative but they have the same meaning, correct?
Well blah blah, shes testing you emotionally because she knows your sexually attracted to her, so she played/playing her games; IMO (I don't know the situation enough) build emotional rapport with kino, then sexual rapport.

No, I get it. I guess it really is just a big game, unless you have two people who point-blank just say, "hey, I want to **** you" and "hey, I want to **** you, too."

Also, something I found funny was that I had read somewhere that a girl offering you a bite of her food or a taste of her drink, etc. is a strong indicator of interest--and immediately the day after reading that, she offers me a drink of her redbull.
 

"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.

So, I guess I blew it this time. After getting numerous IOIs from this girl, I invited her over. She said she was probably going to end up drinking tonight because it's Valentine's Day and she's single, so I told her that she should come over and drink with me instead. She said she didn't want to leave her roommate at home alone and invited me over for more of a group thing she has coming up. She acted cool about it, but thinking about it now, maybe she thought I might try to take advantage of her or something. Oh, well. Whatevs
