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.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Yeah, don't sleep one night - stay up, then go out the next day at lunch and walk about town.

Slight sleep deprivation causes a huge increase in confidence and makes you feel invincible - I'm sure it's a survival mechanism, but you can use it to your advantage for practice. You won't CARE what anyone thinks of you and will be able to clock eyes with everyone, male or female.

I'm totally serious by the way. If you're going to do it, drink plenty of fluid.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Think of it like a game man for example like i do if theres a girl walking one way in the hallway and im walking the other way ( so we are gunna pass each other ) and we catch eye contact i look at her give her a catchy smile and i keep looking until she looks down and when she does im like YES i won and if she never breaks the eye contact when she is right at you and you pass her give her a simple "hey" works wonders.

Being able to maintain eye contact is more mental than physical. When you grow confident enough, you're going to want to stare every woman down that you see, trust me.

Sleep deprivation is probably the most unhealthy way to practice, although it does put you in survival mode in which you feel like you'll rape anything you see :)

Build your confidence up, or simply tell yourself that you don't give a sh!t and you can stare any woman down that you'd like. Don't be scared, you'll be reaping the benefits thereafter.

If you read the DJ Bible, it tells you that you're the prize, not them. If anything they should be looking away from you :p

Yep that's right. It's a big self-esteem boost when they smile and look down all embarassed :p
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
