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 need a pair of shoes for just going out on the town. Something
that you would wear with jeans but is not a sneaker and not something you would wear with a suit either..

I am terrible at finding shoes because I think they all look terrible for one reason or another but I'm tired of going out in sneaks...
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I like Docmartens (Dr. Martens.) They come in a range of styles including shoes and boots. With jeans, I wear the standard shoes which are black with yellow stitching. I find them really comfortable. Not overly expensive and you get excellent wear out of them.

I have really nice brown loafers and I get complimented on them alot. Go well with jeans or chinos.

What's wrong with a dress shoe and jeans? I've noticed dressing casually (t-shirt, jeans etc) with a nice Kenneth Cole or other fancier dress shoe brings much more attention...if that's what you're going for.

There are a few brands I like with jeans when I wear nicer/dressy button up or polo's rather than my standard t-shirt faire ...

Lugz & Skechers are good "urban" shoes, and as the previous dude said, Doc Martens, although those seem to be played out around here (LA).

If you're wearing jeans, I would totally stay away from loafers and topsiders (but that is just me, wear what suits you and don't apologize for it!)...
 

"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.

I have walmart (yes...of all places) shoes. Kinda looks like a hiking show by colour (so they are brown), but aren't technically hiking shoes. Good all purpose shoe, lots of wicked tread on them, matches the jeans well. Living for a year now ( I eat shoes)

What catches YOUR eye? I personally wear boots in the winter and prefer loafers or boat shoes in the warmer months. I'm a fan of the "Ivy League" look, though, and it suits me well. Look around and find something that suits your style.
