"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.

Just wondering what thoughts enter your mind when you watch something like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjhCEhWiKXk

Do you think to yourself: "Boy, this just plays right into that whole cultural trend to supplicate to women...What a SHAME!!"

Or do you think to yourself: "Nice song, let there be love! :)"


A penny for your thoughts, gentlemen!
 

"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.

What do I think?
RnB and most music cater to women's fantasies. I think the problem becomes when men and women believe the fantasy to be the ideal for reality. Thinking this is supplication or just love is like thinking harlequin romance novels are anti male propaganda or history books. None of it makes sense nor is it in anyway reality. Its just to cater to a woman's emotional mood.

Music is a tool to alter mood and to pass time in an enjoyable way. Entertainment. That's what I think. Believing lyrics is the worst thing a man can do when it comes to love songs.

why are songs not played on the radio where WOMEN sing about how much they love the man they are with and how much they love them just the way they are?

Because all I ever hear is negativity towards men in mostly every song on the radio by women.

I love the comments on the video:

THIS IS SO SWEET!!!! Why can't guys be like this in real life?? *sigh* :(
like if you agree with me. :)

by "Whale Lover", lol.


Then we have this one, possibly written by one of us:

"If i hear grenade one more time im going to write a song about eating a brick of C-4 for my woman.

Now that's the spirit! :yes:
 

"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.
