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.

I'm In first year university, i met this girl in orientation week, when i was hammered out of my mind. It was one of those nights where mostly everythings a blur. So all i remember is her name basically and that she was a blonde. Shes about a hb7-7.5, which i usually can wheel no problem. But due to my obnoxious behaviour, she blew me off..Well the next couple of weeks, i kept bumping into her sober, and thought i could redeem myself, but she was having none of it. She actually started hitting up some uglier guy in my building..it turns out she has alot of friends on my floor, and is over at my building all the time..Since i saw that she was not feeling me due to my bad first impression, i decided to pay her no attention at all, and did my own thing when she was over. Well now 6 months later, i think she finally warmed up to me. Shes alot more flirty, with the fake play fighting (kino). Im not sure how to approach this. Its possible that she just is putting me in the LJBF zone, or maybe my lack of interest in her, has made up for my horrible first impression? sound likely?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Not worth the effort.

She probably isn't interested in knowing anything other than 'Does he still like me?' since you have displayed a lack of interest.

She blew you off anyway - why are you still interested in her 6 months later!

I'm with Beef Jerky on this one... :trouble:

Matter of fact, you mentioned she was put off by your "lack of interest"... you just never stated whether you were interested or not.

If you are, even if she supposedly put you in the LJBF category, it doesn't mean she's off-limits. Just up to you whether or not you step to the plate and take charge.

If you're not interested in her though, then this post was a waste of time.

6 months my fuc*ing god man!

Sort it out i mean really jesus H fu**ing christ dude.

one women a HB 7 also who is seeing other guys in front of you and you still want it.

Man its ONE women, open your eyes there are plenty more out there.

Putting you in LJBF zone?
How the hell can she do that? oh yes you let her or your letting her.

How to get out of LJBF, well its easy, you tell her:

Hey ........... i like flirting and all that stuff, hey who does'nt but i think its time we stepped it up a little :D

Or, hey............ lets go out, me, you! maybe if your good enough i may even date you :D

Or. Hi, .............. i have noticed you seem a little more forward latley, hey i like that, you know if you find me hot, i will totally understand.

E.t.c its called escalation, LJBF stage for crying out loud and 6 months too, man you need a kick in the nuts to show you have a pair.
 

"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.
