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.

Sometimes would people tell you that you're weird when using C+F
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Eh?

Dunno about wierd, but people have thought I was a prick, or a snob when throwing C&F. Though its become habit, and is a large part of my normal communication. Some folks need to lighten up.

I've seen some guys go overboard with it, and it becomes ****y and not funny. It just gets annoying when you are around someone for a bit and they are making everyone feel uncomfortable because of the crap they are saying that they think is a hoot.

You can definitely go too far. I think C&F is best used person to person as privately as possible, because it works better that way.

Ironically if someone said I was weird when using C&F, Id give them a C&F response: "you know I was thinking the exact same thing about you...I guess that means we'll get along pretty well."
 

"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.

LOL props to you on that one

For some reason I don't dish out my usual C+F routine anymore..and I'm feeling less confident when doing so...

I guess I just have to go with the natural flow again (i was naturally good at this)
