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.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I can't remember the other guy's name, but he was epic, too.

Unabashedly on steroids, lived in NYC, ninja always trolled him
I think @BeExcellent might remember his name. Maybe Guru1000??? If its the same guy, he claimed to schedule 3 dates at the same place at the same time. Last I heard he was married now. I'm certain he had an alias and he had conversations with himself using another alias as well. enormous ego and highly narcissistic.

BigNeil was one my favorite blowhards! Always posting pics of girls he was with. Always taking them on nice trips, out to nice dinners.

RichardTheFrog..........lol, the dude who wanted to stretch his bones so he was taller. He also had some bionic p0rn star sized cahk.

Poon_King???? always told the brutal truth about women. Jaded. Hard to take sometimes, pizzed off a ton of posters. Didn't sugarcoat anything. He was one of the greatest to ever be banned.

Lol. Yeah those guys were OG. Guru I have not talked to in a while but he had gotten interested in someone (this about 18 months or so ago give or take). I'll look him up sometime after the New Year.

Spaz was funny. Poon King was Poon King. BigNeil was a mess (but in an entertaining way)....

I miss @fastlife because he had a great perspective & plenty of moxy. Cool dude. Not banned but probably got on with life.

Alot happens around here over a decade. Guys grow & change, show up, hold court, move on.

I also miss @Atom Smasher but he is happily doing the married thing.
 

"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.

Agreed on posters growing and changing over the decades. I think SS is a pit stop for single dudes looking to find the one to settle down with.

Unless you’re one of the few that figured out the playboy path :p

"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.

I recall David DeAngelo(and no doubt many others)mentioning back in the day: "Too many guys get with a chick, deceive themselves into believing that they've achieved their happily ever after, then cease doing what progressed them to begin with"

This remains just as true today

Don't sweat it, hoss... In a similar fashion, lots of guys become trapped in middle-management, after that first taste of slightly above minimum wage pay prompts them to think "I've made it!!!" Reality proves to be a merciless b-tch a few years later, when they recognize their salary isn't rising and they've got less and less influence within the corporation, even as some of their former colleagues have moved up the ladder

Nailed it. He was flamboyant for my taste, but he helped a lot of guys. Great poster

BigNeil was one my favorite blowhards! Always posting pics of girls he was with. Always taking them on nice trips, out to nice dinners.

He was always good for a laugh. Unabashedly got prostitutes, which was different, if nothing else.

RichardTheFrog..........lol, the dude who wanted to stretch his bones so he was taller. He also had some bionic p0rn star sized cahk.

Also unabashedly got prosties.

One of the best

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Those guys had the initial red-pill down to a science, and expressed it well.

They never helped guys on what comes after

But eventually the red-pill became so mainstream that they didn't need to

Their job was done.

They also probably didn't have much advice beyond the initial red pill.

My advice, after taking the red pill

If you're a young man, soak up the knowledge that is out there for you, and then try to snag a unicorn, because they exist. Use what you've learned to start a family and create something lasting

If you're an old man, you already know what to do.
