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.

I just recorded my first pattern and I really feel that I sound like, well strange is a understatement. Embedded commands sounds okey, but doing patterns.

Any person who have experience with this? Did you think that you felt all stupid, wierd or just plain strange? Is just because I am not used of my own voice?
 

"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 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 think the difference between you recording them and saying them to a woman is that at least when you are talking to a woman you will pause and she might say something and it will flow more like a conversation.
