If you've been single for a while, what would your office colleagues make off you? When I used to work in an office the chat would invariably be centered around their wives and girlfriends. In computer programming world you get a bit of a pass because half the office is single too. And what are you suppose to do for office parties such as christmas when you are expected to turn up with partner and you don't have one?
"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.
Office Chat, Office Parties And Singledom

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Go out and get one.
Play up the benefits ' hey last weekend I went skeet shooting' or whatever and make sure u r living room hat life. Do the whole Hollywood romance thing. U can't push these things ..when the time is right... BS chicks love that.
And don't ever ask anyone at work to set u up..believe me its safer to cold approach 100 fem Nazis.
And NEVER let them think your a player. Most workplaces r controlled by the sisterhood these days at least in the west..it won't go well for u.

Everything is about spouses and kids.
Avoid eating with them just eat at your desk and realize that their life isn't so rosy ... They have to put up with a lot of crap you have complete freedom
But I agree that if you're single the office will ostracize you

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
Yeah u do survive longer in rat race being a beta bytch but it does eat your soul. Start studying/positioning yourself as a software architect/dev lead. People don't put you down when you're a manager.
