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 suppose in America, being in the military is something cool. Where I come from, it's suicide, and it's mandatory for a reason.
 

"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.

I gained 40 pounds over the last year and just finally lost it after my bpd relationship.

when i did do 30 pullups and run a mile in around 5 minutes i was at low 150's and 5'11. I put on alot more muscle later on and was pumping out around 85 pushups at a time.

Right now i can do about 20 pullup's max and still run a mile in about 5 mins. i weigh roughly 168. I'm at around 60 pushup's right now and nowhere near my physical peak which was 2 years ago.

slowly working my way back up :). I also swim alot and used to be a national ranked swimmer.

How'd you do on the ASVAB?

If you have a college degree then you should certainly go in as an officer. Remember, you hold all the cards. If they can't offer you what you want then don't do it.

Do not enlist for a year-You are a man with a degree which already puts you above these 18 year old enlisted guys. Go officer all the way.

i doubt i will do it at this point in my life. I'm starting my own business as well as studying for my LSAT's. But who knows, maybe a few months from now i might change my mind. For my actual score, it's probably not valid anymore. isn't it only valid for like 3-4 years? i took it my junoir year in highschool which was 7-8 years ago.
 

"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.

i did a little research on becoming an officer in the marine corps. Look's like PLC-Law is what best fits me. can anyone here elaborate one it?


PLC-Law is a post baccalaureate degree program for law school attendees. Active duty is postponed until a student obtains a law degree and passes the bar examination. Officer Candidate Class The Officer Candidate Class Program is precommission training for college seniors and graduates who want to be Marine Corps officers. Upon graduation from college, candidates attend one 10-week officer training course and receive a reserve commission upon successful completion of training. In addition to the programs described above, the Marine Corps has programs for qualified enlisted personnel to earn commissions as officers. These programs include the Marine Enlisted Commissioning Education Program, the Enlisted Commissioning Program, and the Meritorious Commissioning Program.

I see that this is after your 4 year degree which i just received and you have to get into lawschool first? then you go reserves after? is the 10 weeks before law school or after law school. i don't feel like calling a recruiting office and have them try to suck me in and talk for 5 hours until i know what i'm exactly getting myself into.

side note: Anyone know if you can still become an officer with a felony charge or misdemenor?

AAAgent,

I have a friend in the Marines that is a Junior undergrad and just got done with OCS. I want to be a JAG officer and he has been trying to convince me to go Marines with the PLC- Law option. Here is a site he gave me. www.marineocs.com

You will probably find better answers there.
