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.

Hey guys, I have been to this site in the past, and I knew I could come here with a story/question.

I am an 18 year old freshman in college. I am a theatre major, so when we are doing shows, the department gets fairly close since we spend almost everyday with each other.

Recently, a girl whom I have no feelings for told me that she has a crush on me. She says that I am one of the cutest guys in the department, and that she would like to date me. The thing is, I can never see myself with this girl.

Another dilemma I run into is that I have a crush on her roommate. I could never make any moves because she had always had a boyfriend. Now she has broken up with her boyfriend, but her roommate has a crush on me.

The last piece, is that she is 21 and I am only 18. I am not sure how she feels about dating a younger guy, and I am wondering what I should do in my situation.

Any helpful tips, or advice would be greatly appreciated.
 

"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.

For starters, talking to the this girl you have a crush on would be a good start.

I don't know what other advice you are looking for.

Threesome. (thought I would be the first to mention that....)

You should know what you should be doing. You like a chick, go for the damn chick. End of topic.

I don't want to pursue this one girl, and have the other get mad. That would be bad since they are roommates.

But I pretty sure I am coming down with a case of oneitis.

"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.

This sounds like it's coming out of a little girl's mouth. You're not a woman, man up. If you care about what everyone thinks then you're going to live one miserable life.

I figure if I piss the one off, the one I like will see her mad, and in turn think I am a jerk.

OK READY - THIS IS GOING TO BE PURE EVIL: act like a girl that has a guy who has just confessed a crush whom she doesn't like - OMG, the horns!!! THEYRE COMING OUT OF MY HEAD...hahahahaahhaahaaa

Recently, a girl whom I have no feelings for told me that she has a crush on me. She says that I am one of the cutest guys in the department, and that she would like to date me. The thing is, I can never see myself with this girl.

Be like...wow, I've been thinking about it...and I'd like to know a little more about you before I decide if we can have a future together...you SEEM cool, but I'd really need to get to know you better to understand what kind of person you are.

Then have her cook you dinner, clean your dorm room, buy you clothes, suck your dihk, wait for you at home while you phuk other girls - er I mean studying - then suck your dihk again, meet all her girlfriends, have her tell these great stories about you massively social proofing you, e.g. OMG, he's so hot, I love him so much, he's the greatest...NOT LIKE ANY GUY I'VE EVER MET....etc....it will be great - you'll love it;


Another dilemma I run into is that I have a crush on her roommate. I could never make any moves because she had always had a boyfriend. Now she has broken up with her boyfriend, but her roommate has a crush on me.

DO NOT Phuk-Up and hit on her roomie...that opportunity will present itself by virtue of your "dating" - and I do mean "dating" - not exclusive, because she has to prove that she is worth it by buying you things, cooking you dinner, doing a threesome with her roomie, etc... GET IT!!!! OH MAN, I AM ENVIOUS....

The last piece, is that she is 21 and I am only 18. I am not sure how she feels about dating a younger guy, and I am wondering what I should do in my situation.

CLEARLY SHES OK WITH IT - I say work this chick - it will be a great experience...I see threesomes, dinners, gifts, and MANY cool things in your future my boy...

Any helpful tips, or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Veritas Lux Mea
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
