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.

hey lads

for once, instead of preaching noobie djs on the ways of the force, im asking for help from the rest of you

I hooked up with this girl about a month back, but she is starting to bore me and i want to get with this other chick that wants me to go drinking with her on the weekend. rest assured, if im single i will have no problem getting the new girl (or any other ones ;)) but i want to know how i can let the other girl down easy without hurting her feelings to much. she thinks things are going amazing so she will likely be really hurt if i break it off

what do you think :confused:
 

"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.

LET'S JUST BE FRIENDS!!!1

if she really likes you then any attempt to make it easier on her will seem condescending and offensive. i'd be a **** and make her hate you...so that she breaks it off and doesnt feel bad about it at all.

"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've never been too tact with words.

I wouldn't mince them too much, just tell her that what you feel with her isn't what you are looking for and so you would like to go back being friends with her.

Women really like to hang onto those last glimmers of hope when you spring something on them like that, so you've got to stand firm and not cave in, even if she busts out the tears.
