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.

So I red Pook's chapter on Dreams first, chicks second. So what is my dream. Here is my reflection.

As naïve 18 year old, my "vison" was I will get an education have a successful career and then get a mater to have sex with. To me, the girl was the dream and the career and everthing was just to facilitate the dream.

Then reality kicked in. Reality lead to depression, which lead to bad decisions, which lead to financial hardships and I turned to desperate measures. Now I have things back on track. I have a steady job, not yet where I need to be but I am more narrowly focused. The financial hardships have made me sensitive to people in poverty, especially the homeless. I am active in homeless charities and I have decided that I am going to fight poverty through the channel of politics. I am presently helping on campaigns and hope to run for office myself in a few years.

In light of Pook, I believe "The Girl in My dream" will be the one who appreciates and supports these ventures of mine.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

The girl of your dreams will accept you despite all of your faults

It’s good that you’re striving to become a better person and have empathy for the homeless. I’ve been broke and on the street and depressed. I’m glad it happened because it makes me appreciate everything I have now.

Women will always be there when you want them. Focus on building up a life of happiness and screen hard for chicks who have the same attitude as you.
 

"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.
