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.

When I first logged onto myspace a couple years ago, I would get random girls saying hi fairly often. These days I get none and hardly anyone even clicks on my profile. I'm wondering if you guys have noticed the same. Has everyone moved over to facebook? I'm wondering if myspace is going the route of friendster.
 

"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.

One reason for the increase in private profiles is that people have begun spying on them. Businesses and colleges will actually try to find people on Myspace/facebook and use that information while considering people for hiring/acceptance. I actually had a friend who was straight out asked during an interview if she had a myspace account.

most of those "girls" saying hi to you were just spam programs, and Tom recently won a lawsuit against them

No, I'm not talking about spam bots posed as girls! I'm saying I used to get contacted by random girls who found my profile interesting, some of them I actually met up with in real life. But for some reason, real girls(not spambots) never contact me anymore. Weird. That's why I'm just wondering if everyone has moved over to facebook and which one is better for meeting girls.
 

"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.

Yep. A quick word of advice to future myspace users, set up several different email accounts and use one for your myspace and when you fill out applications, give them a different email. Makes it just that much tougher for them to look you up and spy on you. I set my profile to private a long time ago cause I got tired of my mom using it to keep tabs on me, finding out what I was doing, who I was hanging out with, etc.

they are both the same thing, only girls are sketched out too easy on facebook, and they are more open to talking to random guys on myspace
