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.

"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.

100 bucks isn't bad at all for a 512 meg mp3 player. Needs a screen though.

People will buy it and like the whole shuffle idea until they realize that if they want to hear a specific song, it might take hours to do so. The sad fact is that you have no control over your music, and who knows how well this thing shuffles? I've had many players that replay the same stuff every time you reload the list. The same thing might happen. I expect a buying surge of this and then a drastic tape-off.

Unless, you really do like ALL your music and don't have any preferences to what you hear. I know I don't. All I know is that I busted up my 3rd gen ipod running over the summer, and this would have come into some use.

Anything from Apple will be overpriced.

Lots of better MP3 players out there for less money.

I know I posted this in another topic today but it's just so appropriate.
 

"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.

I can't afford it. All that worthless gigabytes...who would put so much music on their Ipod?

My mobile phone can store 4 hours of music and costs me $50.

Well I have over 20 gigs of music and I'm downloading another 13gig, so I need a lot of space to store my music. Plus I don't like listening to a few songs, I like variety.
