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.

Better man than I. The sappy stuff is sometimes the best (although I hate the pop culture emo stuff)axxo said:

I have like 8,700 songs on my Zune , im halfway done. When you turn from AFC To Don Juan, your old lifestyle must go, but it feels good when all your sappy and emo songs are gone. Go celebrate!axxo said:
"Tell Me We Belong together" - Strike 1!axxo said:
"I Be Love suicide" - strike 2!
"Ill Be Your greatest fan of your life" -strike 3!
"Ill be better when im older"- Strike 4!
He is good with metaphors, but listening to this song is like being on a rollercoaster ride of the corniest level. Its like going to the carnival and hitting the "how strong are you" slegehammer smash game, all the way to the ceiling of the Cornyville Carnival, and instead of winning a teddy bear for her, you win the chance to be her "greatest fan of your life", and when your older, you play illusionist when you realize your testes are no owned by you, but by your "Love Suicide".

Oh god! He is actually sympathizing with her b!tchy ways and supporting being in the friend zone. Alle Gory this is not an Afc song, this is worse. :crackup: Listening to this epidemic of a band is like being "marooned" on a uncharted island , and instead of trying to build a raft and escaping, you spend the day masturbating because because she's the only one you fantasizing about, and you want to let her know that " she will be loved", when you had a girl efficiency and forgot your Don Juan vitamins.
This one is worse:

Even the pink t-shirted band members look like they high estrogen levels in there blood. The girl is the prize, they have turned football into feminineball . Hear this as i past Limited Too at the mall.

I approve of this Hey There Delilah parody:
"Hey Their Vag!na - Rollercoastergeek
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTYz9OPRJow&feature=related
( listen to it guys i actually laughed out loud!)
"Hey their vag!na with your Pvssylips"
"Let my pen!s play quarterback, ill throw a touchdown inside you :crackup: "
"you sausage wallet, i love you"
I hate the Plain White T's with a passion, they are always featuring their " i can barely play guitar" music on the show greek. The big nose singer makes me laugh with his limited lyrics. My sister loves them, makes me grrr. I waswrite going to write a Pg-13 funny review, but the parody takes care of it.

Trader."you may have thought i was stronger, i may have failed, but i have loved you from the start"
The guy sounds like the all grown up version of Alvin from the chipmunks. There are more things wrong in the lyric above than the personal lives of the rich and famous, that are found in a melodramtic People magazine, that has been used as toilet paper by New York's subway homeless population. The noobs in the comments section on youtube dedicating this song to their girlfriends is refreshing, it makes me happy to see my competition is slowly being eliminated. Emancipate yourself from this song, just like our Founding Fathers did, buy having sex and thinking this saying in your head as you do her:
"you may have thought you was stronger, i have prevailed, but i had always been a man visualizing doggystyling you from the start"
"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.

Dude what's the point of this? How much time do you have on your hands to come up with 21 AFC songs, all by title and artist, complete with a small description?
You could probably write a good song in the same amount of time.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
What's interesting is that as my mindset has changed - songs with AFC lyrics do start to bother me now (even though the song can be catchy)slickaz said:
Take for example, Nickelback's "Gotta Be Somebody"
http://www.imeem.com/rhojmusic/music/YIZjlQ5F/nickelback-gotta-be-somebody-high-quality/
'Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me like that
'Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
Talk about reeking of desperation

Same here! A true Dj wouln't listen to to commercialized Afc smufflinks , change your minset, change your tunes. Music subconsciously influences how you think.Trader said:

almost Everything emo is afc.
P.S this thread comes up second on Google when you type "afc songs"
"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.

I want to get into a time machience, travel back into time, and arrive in the middle of their performance, cut the sound, and play her a real manly song with an electric guitar, steal her from him and his "Proud to Be AFC" ballad, and show her the real way "back" into love, doggystyle that is haha
It maybe sound silly, but its inspirational. In a revolution, little things turn into bigger things, than everybody wants a piece. I actually wrote a song that day after skateboarding lessons, its called Save The Humansslickaz said:

"I won't forget the way your kissing"
This makes feel more depressed than a chimmy worker during the 1950s, when the loyal pretty housewive ,gives you crap about how you can't use her bathroom because your covered in the ashes of wussyness. aAnd you had to hold it in, and Sh!T far away from the house because you don't want to dispect her yard, because "She turns you on"
