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.

Ok, so I know these are possibly the worst words you can hear from a chick that you are pursuing. However, I was thinking about turning the table and dropping these lines on the chick herself.

Since they use it on us, I wanna experiment and see the results when I use it on them :rockon: I think it sends all the right signals. It tells her that you have options, you are patient, you aren't just another guy trying to get in her pants. It also makes you a bit mysterious, and forces her to second guess herself (you're making her validate/qualify herself to you), and lastly you're presenting somewhat of a challenge to her.

However this can also probably backfire. She may think you just wanna be friends and she may move on, or she may only see you as friend because of what you said. She may also think your gay, especially if she's hot (no guy has ever said this to me!)

However, I'm going to try this on chicks where I know there is a mutual attraction. Like maybe we have been on a few dates, have made out a few times. And then tell her, "lets just be friends for now." If she's attracted to you and she's decent looking, this will throw her for a major spin.

Logically speaking, it clearly works on us guys. What do we do when we hear those dreaded lines? Exactly...we try harder. So why wouldn't it work on them. Also, if they're good looking, I really doubt they have ever heard this from any guys they were seeing. So this is definitely going to shock them :eek:

Lastly the reason why I'm doing this is because at the moment I have some options, and i don't wanna fully committ to every girl that I'm seeing right now. I just wanna play the field, and see what happens. It's a bit risky, but the whole idea of saying "lets just be friends" is to make them try harder, present a challenge, and ultimately increase attraction.

Tell me what you guys think...
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

He does this in Tao of Steve sure it's a movie but worked for him, the key I think is make sure she doesn't LBJF you in the end

Lol I said Ljbf to a girl that asked me out in the 9th grade and the expression on her face was priceless it looked like I had ripped her heart out...

she Probably felt like crying because she said she had a crush on me for three years...and yeah she never talked to me again

She told some other guy that it that you just cant tell a person Ljbf
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

The reason why I think this is better than totally ignoring her or "Ganji Game" is because you're keeping her around and essentially you're teasing her.

I read a lot of advice on this board and a lot of it is a bunch of alpha male cr@p: Put her down, don't talk to her for weeks, "ganji game." Well, let me tell you from a lot of experience that this advice doesn't take you far. If anywhere at all. Ganji games is hilarious. Yea cutoff all contacts and completely ignore her. If you do that, about 95% of the time she will ditch ur a$$.

Anyways, when I bring it up I'll do it very non-chalantly. I wont sit her down and get all serious. If we're walking somewhere, I'll just kinda say it carelessly, "You know we'll make good friends," or something along those lines.

So I went out with HB9 this weekend and it went great. I told her I was glad I met someone that I liked as a friend, then later stated that she would make a good friend :) This totally threw her off, she kinda stared at me for awhile trying to figure out if i was serious or not. Definitely made her thinking...:)

Of course all this was done with a lot of flirting and kino. So just wanted to report that this is a GREAT strategy and line to pull. She's probably still trying to figure me out...:D

I'm pretty sure ganji games is only a last ditch effort when the girl has basically lost all interest. The basic premise is if you wait long enough, when you come back you may get a clean slate.

Once this girl tried to have a "let's talk about where things are going" chat with me, so I sat her down and said, straight up, that I like the friendship too much and that maybe we should stick to being friends, because it's for the best.

Wait 2 weeks...

Now I fvck her pretty often.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
