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.

Anyone had any success telling stories to your target about how some other chick before her was a bad first date?

I am thinking of running with this. It shows value (you are dating) and gives you the power.

AM I off on this? Any advice before I run with this one?
 

"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.

As long as you can do this without coming off too negative it's not a bad idea.

Yes and no. Yes, it implies value because you've had other dates, but no because it links negative emotions to your interactions. Better by far to tell a story where you went out and had a great time, and just happened to be with another girl at the time.

Subtlety is key here. When conveying social value, don't directly tell her anything she could conceivably figure out for herself.
 

"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.

Women you're trying to game hate it when you mention other women around them, even in a nagative sense. It's a comparison, and they don't dig it.
It almost begs her to start asking ****-test questions like, "Do you think my friend is prettier than me?"
