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.

Wherever the Dong guides me, but mostly Hawaii
He told me a story about how he got a small part in a Broadway play. 3,000 actors tried out for the part. He had no experience or credentials, but he got the part anyway. Out of curiosity, he asked the producer, "With all of these great actors, why the hell did you choose me?"

The producer's reply was simple: "You walked in here like you owned the place."

Women will respond to you in the exact same way. You do not walk into a social setting and wonder if you will get lucky, if you have a chance, if you will go home with the girl. You walk in knowing that the girl is already yours.
 

"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.

Theory compounded with consistency will lead to confidence which will give you courage, 100% of the time.

I think Brother DongFu has given us a wonderful analogy for being certain of yourself TO yourself. Placating to other people's attention will inevitable draw thier intrigue away from you.

Law 34: Be Royal in Your Own Fashion: Act Like a King to Be Treated Like One
The way you carry yourself will often determine how you are treated: In the long run, appearing vulgar or common will make people disrespect you. For a king respects himself and inspires the same sentiment in others. By acting regally and confident of your powers, you make yourself seem destined to wear a crown.
 

"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.

That sounds great in theory.
It works

Back when I first started going out (2006)
I would walk in a club, and just know I woud pull a number, and usually 90% I did.

One my 23rd birthday I told myself and my best friend (now room mate) I'm ****ing something tonight

My state was so ridiclous I literally "lorded" (as the rsd crew would say) the club and had a chick come home bringing me a bottle of wine etc etc

This is when I realized that frame/state are very critical in terms of gaming, it's been a huge part of my success

Peace

This is good advice that I've seen in my life. The last chick I met at a bar said I walked in like I owned the place and my friend who tried to game her walked in like he was afraid someone was going to jump him. It's that calm confidence that wins the day. You don't have to be over the top, just comfortable in your own skin.
 

"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.

I agree with this completely %100. It's just a matter of confidence. If you walk in like you own the place you seem authoritative, you know what you're doing, you're confident and approachable. I think this is why I've gotten so many job promotions lately because I go and take charge, I grab whatever I'm doing by the horns and just go for it fearlessly and my bosses recognized that. No doubt I didn't know everything at first obviously, but I worked my ass off and stayed confident in my work. I think this is a good principle example of your theory. :)

It really isn't theory at all, it works. It's quite paradoxical, but the only way to become confident is to be confident. All you have to do is start acting confident and eventually you will just be confident naturally.
