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, ill try to make this short.
yesterday me ant this girl were on a second date, while watching the movie i used kino, everything went great, she responded, we holded hands etc. yet i didnt try to kiss her there, waiting for a kiss close.
when we got to her place, we were sitting in my car, i kissed her good bye, she seemed to enjoy it very much, i heard how she was breathing, touching me. we kissed for quite a while, then we stopped. and she asked me a question which i cannot understand. it was dark, she wasnt looking directly at me, but it seemed like she was smiling. actually, she definitely was. anyways, she said 'why did you kiss me'. well we talked for a bit and i was wondering why she asked this question, but she didnt tell me that. we started kissing again, kissed for a while and a bit later she went home. today i asked the same question, why did she ask me about that kiss yesterday and she only said it didnt matter. i said it matters to me, and ~6hours has passed, she didnt reply. she might be busy right now shooting a film, not sure. so i dunno what to do. should i write to her something right now or should i wait for her to reply? i definitely know she likes me, it was actually her who iniciated both dates. she didnt ask me out directly, but.. :) ya know..
anyways, any advice? what to write, how to act?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

oh gawd don't go back and ask her if she wanted you to reply with "because you're so beautiful".

if i were you, i wouldn't give this question another thought. i would work on setting up another date and take things from there. if she doesn't bring it up, then you shouldn't bring it up.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

okey, so ive got one more question for you guys. everything is going great with this girl, yesterday we met for like 4th or 5th time, we held hands, kissed whenever we felt like kissin. acted almost like a couple. but apparantly she hasnt forgotten her ex, even though SHE dumped him, she is still thinking about him. about a month has passed since she did that. she saw picture of him yesterday with another girl, came to me complaining blah blah, i tried not to comfort her too much, not to look like a friend more than a bf. so this was before we met yesterday eve. as i said, everything went great when we were together. today i turn on my pc, and her skype additional info says some words i saw he posted in her forum... omg dunno what to do! i suppose i have 2 choices: to make her forget him and fall in love with me ORRRR say its all over between us... any advice?

she wants him because she cant have him anymore because hes with someone else. people want what they cant have. because you pay attention to her a lot she may think she has you now, but if you dangle just a bit in front of her she'll come after you.
 

"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.

Stop being so nice to her. I fear you are going into nice guy mode since you have a good thing going. If you go into nice guy mode she probably will start remembering the jerk she dumped. This is the thing about girls, the nicer you treat em the less attractive you become to them.

When she came complaining about seing a picture of him with another girl that was your chance of being C&F about the situation "so he's still alive, maybe ill invite him over to cook us dinner" "i'm going to hire him as a guard, so he can guard the door of our room so nobody can disturb us while we make sweet, passionate love to the tunes of barry manilow from night to day"

if she's still hung up over her ex, don't get emotionally close w/ her. you're probably gonna end up hurting yourself. and you're never gonna be able to make her forget him and fall in love with you if she doesn't want to - no guy is that powerful. just have fun and don't take her too seriously - she's obviously not girlfriend material right now

and w/ the question, she was probably really happy you kissed her and fishing for you to vocalize reciprocation. it's because of something you did right, not wrong, so don't get all insecure about it

It is not about being "nice," but more about not being available to her so easily. She is remembering the ex because girls want men they can't have (like someone else said) so why not you become another man she can't have? not totally since you are her bf but try not to be available for her too much, in other words be a man that she feels she doesn't control. Next time she calls you or asks you to meet her for your regular date night or whatever, tell her you'll be busy and won't be able to do anything that day. Next time she calls don't answer for that whole day, when she asks the next day why you didn't answer just pretend it didn't happen or had to do somethinng and change the conversation.

You need to use every little trick in the book. Start teasing her more often and use a neg or 2 as well.

"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.

but the mind of girls are mostly the same and they can all smell a nice guy from a mile away! no matter what country they are from! I would do that if i were in your country too I bet...just not to my girlfriend :D

stop sending her good morning messages, in fact stop calling her, let her call you from now on. Stop being so available to her. I suggest you try canceling a date/meeting so she starts getting the image in her mind that you are not an easily available guy. Use the bf jokes I gave you any chance the subject comes up so you show confidence in yourself and that you are better than her ex (and that the subject doesnt bother you)

remember that she is testing you. When she went up to you to complain about her ex and you comforted her that was a test which you failed by actually acknowledging the problem. Instead of huggin her and holding her hand like a love sick puppy telling her "it's alright" you should have been like "can he drive trains? i want him driving our train so that I don't have to worry about that as im making love to you on a boxcar going 60 miles an hour." After that line change the subject and walk her to another place like if nothing happened.
