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.

Relationships are for women

I find my current relationship to be so full of **** and would leave, but my other options are dryer than the sahara desert right now lol. Back then, men were the dominant sex in the work force and this made women seek men as not just a lover but also a provider. This resulted in men being chivalrous to their women and courting them. This made sense back then because women fulfilled their roles as being faithful and housewives. Now women do not have to do that because there is more equality in the workforce. They essentially lost their eating free privileges, but still want to eat for free. I am all for equal rights, but I do not see why I should have to pay for a woman now. They have jobs and they like to flaunt how independent they are, but they still want to retain the benefits from the past when they weren't so equal.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Men may have provided. But women kept home going so there was a place to come back to.

The whole male dominant thing is bogus. It (at least in the past) was complementary. Who knows what to call this mess now.

Your absolutely right OP, dating now sucks. I take breaks from it for a few months at time and I'm happier, then I go back.

Even girls that make more money than me expect me to pay all the time.

The only guys that win are the broke bad boys ex cons etc.. and then the women pay.

Haha I'm wondering how these guys are able to get away with that. We always talk about how women are bad but all of a sudden they become submissive and respectful with bad boys??!
 

"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.
