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.

Hi everyone -- I'm delighted to see that there is a forum where so many people offer advice on dating and meeting people!

Anyway, you're probably all tired of coming across posts like this, but I know that looks aren't anywhere near the most important thing...personality and common interests are! That's why I ask that you please tell me honestly, and I will not be offended; it will just help me to know what I've got to work with!

I'm 23 and girls simply do not look at me; I've actually never had an interested look before. Unless it's just because of my tendency to act nervous in public, that probably implies that I am NOT good looking...but if anyone would be willing to give me the straight facts, here's a photo of yours truly:

I know moustaches are a little out of style these days, but I think they look refined (and trust me, I don't look good without one at all...I've tried!). As for the teeth, yeah, I've definitely got to get braces one of these days...but are they really THAT bad? And c'mon, does EVERYONE need a cleft chin?

Thanks!
 

"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.

I assume this post is actually serious. That means you're at the beginning of a journey, should you decide to embark.

I'm not attracted to men. So whereever you could be on a "scale" you are definitely NOT to ugly to score.

My guess is that you have to work on your core confidence and probably also on social skills in general.

I mean like: work.

A lot.

My advice is to do the DJ Boot Camp. It will give you insights and EXPERIENCE.

Don't worry. You will probably have to feel and overcome fears, but it will also be a lot of fun. Don't forget, you only live once. Don't regret later on.

And another thing: You probably could also profit a lot from relaxation / meditation techniques in the process.

Good luck to you!

Suggestion: Go to a hair stylist to get a new dew. The pedophile part over isnt cutting it. And shave that dog gone mustash off...you look like a dog gone terrorist.

Shave the mustache, get a new haircut. Get something trendy, your hair makes you look like you're from the 30s.

As you can probably tell, you're not biologically ugly, you just probably carry yourself in an unattractive way. I'm going to guess that your clothes are lackluster: flannel collared shirt tucked into light, worn jeans with some sort of boot on. Not modern.

Go to kinowear.com for some ideas. As much as people espouse working on inner game, it's self-limiting to work on inner game while you have low confidence about your appearance. Your confidence should come, to some extent, from the knowledge that you look and feel great.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

You need a new haircut and to shave the tash...

Maybe grow a short beard, you definitely need to grow your sideburns down a bit more and generally grow more stubble (if you can)

At the moment you look like a geek, especially with the side fringe thing you have going on...

Haircut -> Buy hair gel -> spike hair -> grow stubble -> shave mustache and i think you will look alot better

But seriously whatever you do,,, CHANGE YOUR HAIR !

"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.

okay i use to work in a modelling agency and i know what looks good and i know what girls like to look at. you look like a total geeky hillbilly virgin who's never had a date in his life. girls will definitely not look at you twice. here's the good news though... you have potential to look good. now judging by the picture you are not straight haired... wavy perhaps? if so, i would cut it just a bit shorter so it doesn't have a wave to it... and comb it up.

like this: http://img5.allocine.fr/acmedia/rsz/434/x/x/x/medias/nmedia/18/36/25/02/18465347.jpg

but shorter cause you got wavy hair.

cut that moustache for sure. get some stubble going don't shave up ways. only down. and don't button your collared shirts all the way up. geeky. wear jeans too. that's the fashion these days :p

maybe a chain around the neck would look good too. now get to it! i want a picture of the new you when it happens. keep us updated.

Your face\genetics are okay imo, you have a male looking face. It's shaped like a male, all I'm saying, dunno how to explain.

http://www.uni-regensburg.de/Fakult...beautycheck/english/prototypen/prototypen.htm

The style isn't elegant for sure, but you have something going on imo, it shows some personality.

Get a fancier style and you're there! You deff. have potential.

You could be comedian, your face is humurous. :D (Not in a bad way).

I agree with what most of the people have said...

New hair due is a must... you look like you are a guy from 1920-1930's

Cut off the mustache and get some cool clothes and you are fine. Definitely not UGLY but you definitely look like a geek now. You can change that very easily.

Also you said you are 23, with that style i would give think you were 40yo atleast.

I second what everyone has said about the hair and mo'.

Also a tan wouldnt go astray
 

"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.

Your hair is perfectly fine. That's how my hair is. Definitely don't go bald. Your shirt is also fine. No reason to go bananas.

I would try shaving off the mustache, going clean-cut.

But honestly, I look at your picture and I see a good-looking, quality guy. I think your problem is internal- a lack of confidence, etc.

Check out the site in my signature man, I think it would be a gift of God to you.

Quick tips?

Get a tan.
Buy some Crest White Strips and whiten your teeth.
Go to the gym and work out.
Get a cool haircut (Go to a trendy hair salon and get it done there. It's more expensive, but with your hair type you can get many attractive options that'll suit you quite well)

And lastly, get some new clothes. You look like a lumberjack.

Most importantly though, go to the site on my sig.
 

"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.
