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.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

MacAvoy gives great advice. He always caught me off guard and really helped me to realize the true issues within myself. It all starts from within. It takes true responsibility for your own actions and decisions to get yourself to a place where you truly want to be. He motivated me to dig deeper, and to learn not to be so judgmental.

There are so many others that give such great advice, that I'd hate to leave anyone out, but there are so many.

The most encouraging and positive advice is simply the best advice.

I can't recall too many guys that give out no string sexual advice because I usually ignore them because they tend to be loud & obnoxious to the AFC's around here.

However I do recall stand having some excellent LR's, from what I gather guitarwhizz is also great at doing cold approaches and closing.

My advice though is to just read the board for a few weeks and you'll know who the posters are, its pretty obvious the personalities & skill sets.

edit: the best way to get advice is to make a post, you'll get varied points of view, which IMO is better than one perspective. However smart posters ignore the negative & stupid advice.
 

"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.

I'm going to have to hope you can look past the fact that i am a loud obnoxious potentially bad advising person. Why because Mavrick had so much good to say about you, and he is sincere. Your admirable in my book and Mavrick is also very admirable in my book being able to say such things of you. You must be in the know.

Where did I say you were loud, obnoxious & potentially bad advising person? I was responding to your more detailed request about guys who give advice about no strings sex, the guys on here that generally do that are generally young & full of themselves, & they get into pissing contests with the AFC's calling each other names. That was my point.

no

you didn't say that about me, im just letting you know that i am or can be obnoxious and annoying
 

"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.
