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 decided to move into the storage room mainly for the reason i can play my music loud on my decks without my parents complaining and also it's far as possible from my parents room ;).

Anyway i need ideas, especially theme colours and positioning of furniture. I want my room to have an underground urban feel to it so it'd be a cool hang out place when i'm spinning on my decks and mates come over but also warm and cosy for chicks ;).

I have photos of the room as it is now and i'll let you know i'm taking everything out of this room, including those white shelves. So just imagine this as an empty room.

First I need an idea for the flooring. I'm thinking i can simply repaint the concrete floor as long as it blends in with the brickwall and surrounding walls. However if it's inexpensive I might opt for carpeting or floorboards.

Next i want to know what colour themes choices do i have with the walls and furniture/fabrics.

Now the buying and positioning of everything. I'll be requiring a sturdy queensize bed, desk(s) to support dj gear and computer + monitor, TV console, couches?, and anything else to make the room complete.

*Powerpoints on this wall
**That small door is a very small place under stairs to store junk

(View from the bed) This is where i'm thinking to put the tv console.
*There's a big hole behind those planks of wood, so i need to cover them up stylishly

If there's any info you need or more picture angles you want let me know :)

Also i'm 20 if that matters. Thanks
 

"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.

You should change your bed, it looks too childish in my opinion.

Your rug is too plain. Get a stylish rug. Change your curtains.

The colors of your room scream "gay"

Of course, I mean no offense. I think you can fix it up a lot.

My advice...you gotta do something about those bricks, and the light dude. If I was a chick and you brought me back there, I would think you were a serial killer that was about to torture me Hostel-style. Maybe paint or do some wallpapering. Or get a light covering. Those are the biggest things that need improvement to me.
Hostel really took the erotism from torture didnt it?

The room needs some Posters Definately,
they are good for conversations

mirrors are cool too,

TV and Stereo a must,

such a small space fortunately though~
make the best of it.

Move to bigger place ASAP or if possable:D
 

"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.

christ that has so much potential for an underground feeling place. you need to keep the brick walls, paint dark colors, leather sofa, decks, maybe even a lil fridge or whatever. the bed needs to be dark, everything dark club feeling.
