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.

Somebody figure this one out....

This one comes from a few months ago...maybe a few of you can shed some light on this.

Had a huge crush on this girl I went to college with. I had seen her around at parties, in cafe's, around the dorms. Never had the balls or what seemed like the right opportunity to talk to her. I guess you couldn't call it a crush...more like infatuation.

Jump to several years later post-college. A buddy invites me to this house party thrown by a co-worker. While at the party, I end up talking to this girl who seems pretty chill, but is married. We start talking about college and I mentioned where I went to school, etc. I asked here if she had any friends there...etc. And she mentions the name of my crush. Apparently this girl is her best friend. I went on to explain how I had a little thing for her but never got to meet her. We laugh and go our separate ways.

About a month later, I run into this girl again at a grocery store and we start talking again. After our conversation ends I ask her what her last name is. She tells me, I say goodbye, and I leave.

That night, I log into Facebook, and I notice that not only has this chick blocked me, but my college crush has blocked me as well. I guess they have been checking me out for awhile...I guess since that party. How do I know? Well, I have a small summer project that has it's own Facebook profile so I was able to see that they do have profiles, but they just blocked me. I felt kind of ****ty.

A few days later...the married girl unblocks me...but my "crush" still has me blocked.

Now...WTF is going on here? Were both of these girls crazy? Did the married chick get jealous of her friend (my "crush") because I said she was hot?

Can someone possibly explain what happened here?

I want to learn from whatever moronic mistake I made...so DJ opinions please.
 

"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.

Maybe they felt insecure and you came off as creepy in their opinion? A lot of woman will be nice to save face but behind your back they throw you under the bus. It is in my opinion you shouldn't have said you had a thing for the married chicks friend. Its never a good idea to have your girl your interested in informed via friends. NEXT! (My two cents)

Haha...probably. I wasn't even trying to pick her up or try to meet her so it's funny how this happened.

Yeah...after they blocked me I really lost any sort of attraction I had to her. Petty sh*t. Yes, NEXT!

you my friend, just got c0ck blocked. It happens in all forms.

You did get it pretty bad though haha (sorry, but it is pretty funny)


EDIT, on below: The married friend (the messenger) could have totally screwed up what you had been implying and told her that you still had a crush on her and you'd been thinking about her all these years (she probably threw out her own opinion which she considered factual). And that right there could have creeped her out. And, since married friend has a sh1tty boring life with nobody ever crushing on her, married friend came to the conclusion that you're a stalker and her single friend (which she looks up to and aims to please) better watch out.

Just my theory :crazy:

I know...I'm still sort of laughing about two 30-year old women freaking the f*ck out. So, essentially you think this married chick got all bent out of shape about me liking her friend....lol?
 

"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.
