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.

Nice way of telling leeches/people to get lost?

I'm usually at the top of my classes, or close to. Problem is that alot of people will ask me for help eventually... mostly the dumb and lazy ones. This stuff isn't rocket science either. Everything is laid out clearly in the materials we are given.

How can I get the leeches off my back without seeming like an a-hole?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I have had a similar problem. I ussually start asking them questions back. Like they say how did you get that answer? Then i reply with "its in the book i just read it. Didn't you understand whats in there?" Then when they say oh but i didnt get it. DONT give them the answer just walk them through it.

Eventually they will never ask for your help anymore. Because its work. Lazy people hate work so if you give them the answer its what they want they will come back for more.

Dont be afraid to be an asswhole, dont blow them off at first, but you shouldnt be giving people your ****ing answers so you can be an ******* if they dont leave you alone
