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 met this girl 1 year ago when her and i worked on a film project together...we'll call her HBSmile. I thought she was a pretty cool girl, cute, great body (dancer)...long blonde hair, great smile, beautiful eyes...overall an HB8. After the project ended i didn't keep in touch (GF).

We ended up in a class together a month ago and are scene partners (acting class). We've gone out pretty casually for dinner/drinks...movies...nothing "date" like...and her and i get along GREAT! I always get her laughing, we always have a great time when we are together, the conversations are in-depth...and we have a lot in common.

Anyway...she's going home for xmas and is placing her dog into a kennel for 2 weeks. When i asked why she just didn't leave him with a friend, she said that all of her friends are going back home too. I love dogs and was dog sitting for someone last month, so i just casually suggested she leave him with me.

Is that too nice?

Up to this point, i have been pretty much in-control of what has been going on...doing my own thing on the side...and i have never once supplicated.
 

"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.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
If you REALLY enjoy being around dogs and dogsitting like you say, and aren't just doing this to try to impress or otherwise win her over, then you're fine. :)

Just do what you want

Do you really need to write in asking if its too nice to look after a dog?

You have agreed to it, live your own life, if you think later that it was a mistake

learn from it then, but live man, you only get one crack at life

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Yeah, if you can't get the chick to s*ck your d*ck, then at least you can spread a little Alpo on your balls and let Rover take over!!

Yeah, yeah...i supposed i deserved those replies! :)

Actually, i haven't really agreed to it...not yet. i told her i'd get back to her.

In response to xiola's post...

The last thing i want to be is "just" her friend...however...she is VERY shy around guys, and she told me herself when i first met her that she doesn't flirt with guys she "likes", and that she is shy even to make a move or give signals...

Which is ALSO why i can't read her.

Great Quote.
 

"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.

Having done this myself, here are some plusses:

1) If you do a good job, her trust in you increases.
2) It gets you off your butt and walking several times a day which leads to improved health and fitness
3) The dog is a chick magnet so you'll end up meeting other girls.

The biggest potential minus I can see is if she says to you "I'm going away with my BF this weekend..." or "I'm going off on Spring Break to party and get naked on TV..." or something a bit more subtle and "Would you mind taking care of the dog?" Tell her to get a life and you're not the dog's nanny. If this is the case, she clearly sees you only as a friend which translates into "you're an AFC to me and I can treat you like crap whenever the mood strikes me."

Bottom line is that you need to have some idea of her character BEFORE you ante up for something like this.

Oh, and if she doesn't do something nice for you like take you out for lunch or dinner or something afterwards, watch out.
