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.

Right before I left home for college, I went on a date with this girl who is staying in the same city for school. The date went well (not THAT well ;) ) but she is definitely into me.

Anyway, that was about 3 weeks ago. I won't be back home until December, so my question is:

Should I call her at all? Obviously, it would have to be just to talk, since I can't set anything up with 350 miles in between us. She doesn't get texts on her phone, she doesn't have facebook, I don't have her email address, anything! I don't really like doing the whole phone thing, but is it better than having no contact at all?
 

"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.

Girls talk to each other. When guys talk to girl, they become their girl friends. That's why usually army dudes away on a mission that talk to their girls come back to a girl who's sleeping with another guy.

You're clinging on to this one girl? I thought you said you were in college. Pardon me, but aren't there girls all around you?

I never said I'm clinging to this girl. I didn't even think about her until a couple of minutes before I posted that. It's not a big deal, I'm just wondering which would be better.

Don't call her at all. Give her a call when you come back, and invite her to "catch up". Then pull some slick moves :)
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
