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.

Anybody else feel this way? I guess it is simple male biology...


I only want to date 25 up to 32 tops!
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Yeah, I feel kind of the same. I'm 33 and the age 21-28 appeals to me much more. I'm not into older women at all.

Then date younger women. It's that simple.
What has been the youngest you have been able to date/attract?

When I was 33, I hooked up with a 22 year old. So 11 years is my record ;)

You got me beat. When I was 31-32, I dated a 23 year old. So, 8-9 years. This past year I've gone out with an 18 year old and a 23 year old but didn't get anywhere with either. My game is not sharp right now. The 18 year old was a number-close though. She thought I was around 26. I never corrected her. Ha!
Hey that is pretty good.

Yeah, how old YOU LOOK, is more important than your actual age.

Been the case for me since I was about 30. Was with an older woman in my 20s and it was okay but I've known since that I prefer younger women.

Doesn't make things any easier but hasn't been that bad overall. Shrinks the pool a bit, but there are still plenty of girls around who prefer older men, it seems.
 

"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.

I've been talking to a 20 year old the past week. She'll be 21 in May. My buddy called me borderline creepy, but she hit me up online so whatever I don't care.

Not about how old you LOOK, its all about how old you ACT and FEEL.

My old man was 80 when he was 50. I can't seem to get past 21.

I think I got you all beat; when I was 38 I dated a 19 year old. :eek: :up:

Of course, she was a psycho ... :nervous:

I find very few women my age physically attractive and the ones that are reside firmly out of my league or have attitudes that make them unattractive. It's usually the latter and not the former.

I find that women in the late 30s early 40s tend to think that a. their accomplishments professionally impresses me. and b. What they want matters to me.

Rollo used to post on here about the way chemistry affects a woman as she ages. With less estrogen I think it is, women are less interested in sex. I think it's a little more than that, though. Older women are just less interested in men in general, as compared to younger women. A 26 y/o who falls in love with you will want to structure her life around you. A 36 y/o woman will expect you to do the same for her. And on an evolutionary basis - younger women are more fertile, so for the sake of the species it would make sense that they prioritize the man in their life very highly.

I'm drawn to girls younger than me. However I'm open to girls my age. Depends.

In the last 12 months. 22,25, to that were 30, two that were 31, and one that was 42 but she completed 2 full iron man triathelons and was built like a rock.
 

"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.

I haven't been with a woman my age since I was 25. The only catch Ive discovered is that theyre very likely to ghost you for months on end. As long as you got plates lined up you can rotate an unpredictable harem of youthful hottest. I keep a 26ish on call always and Chase younger.

Agree with this. I've found women, at least in my area, who are my age (early to mid 30's) pretty intolerable.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
