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.

hey all. well, i have a GF now :)woo: ), but i need some advice. i recently found out that she has a lot of family/emotional problems. dont tell me to next her, b/c i REALLY like everything else about her. anyway, she has VERY low self asteem. how do i treat this? i dont want to be a therapist, but i dont want to be blatantly mean. how can i act around her that is not AFCish, but wont make me out to be evil? what can i do so that i dont become her "therapist", and earn me an eventual entrance into the friendzone? thanks for all the help!
 

"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.

Congrats on getting a girlfriend. And hmmmm.. Well having a girlfriend is all about fun. U should never get into her porblems, in another words mind ur own business. U dont need any problems! But putting ALL thats away for a while, u should talk about it!! Talk with her about the problems she has and how u both can fix it! Hug her more often and show her that u really care. But if nothing changes just drop it. Good luck

If someone has low self esteem, you're not gonna change that overnight.

I can't really offer any advice on how to behave around her. But here is the NUMBER ONE rule of councelling:

"Never ever ever EVER give her direct advice/suggestions no matter how obvious it may seem."

All solutions must come out of her own mouth.

G'luck and remeber to have fun!

Yea, organise your writing a bit better, and sloooow down bro

just hang out with her, nothing wrong with that
 

"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.
