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 wore a bowtie to a first date but she wasn't impressed and rejected me. Why?
 

"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.

trolololol. It wasn't the tie. It was the goon standing behind it.

Bow ties and suspenders draw attention. It had to have been something else, but she probably just didn't want to tell you.

This. Bowties are pull off-able if you have the right look and personality for it.

Tell us how the rest of interaction was. How do you know it was the bow tie? Did she come out and say it? I don't think I've ever had anyone act that rude even if I did dress weird.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Anyone under the age of 65 wearing a bowtie looks like a tool, bowties are for guys who look like colonel sanders and don knotts

next time wear a pair of autopistols, with 30 rd extended mags protrucing from the gun butts, in low-slung rigs, with compensators on the extended barrels, protruding from the bottoms of the speed rigs. Ala Angelina in the tomb raider flick. But get double stack 1911's, not Rugers. :) and not ParaOrd 1911's, either, Springfields are your best bet, in 9mm. search youtube for a guy named Jerry Miculek.

I had the total opposite reaction, women love it when I wear a bow tie, I get so much more attention from them and they all want to come up to me and touch it. It depends on your outfit and your sense of style, make sure the colors or patterns aren't clashing with the rest of your outfit, a bowtie should compliment the rest of your attire. Try wearing one with a nice dress vest and a nice fitting button up.

Only a nerd or a geek would wear a bow tie to a date. A fella with NO fashion sense is what it screams. Just not a cool look. It's a nerdo look that has no place in the dating game.

What female wants to be seen with the town eggbert? None with any commonsense.

My shock is that you have the nerve to even ask why?

That shows me that you must live in a totally different world than normal people do.

Think Tatum Channing style of dress and **** that I want to be me bull****. Being you has gotten you where? Here on sosuave looking for answers as to what is wrong.

Take my advice and prosper or leave it and suffer. Your choice.
 

"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.
