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.

"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.

Sad thing is, there's a great many people like him (you wouldn't know they lifted weights if you saw them outside of a gym) in the US and the UK. Most people who are 'on' don't even know what they're doing.

Good to see you around though, alvatore. :)

He won't keep any of the muscle he may gain once he cycles off.

He won't know how to keep it.

I wish it was that easy to get gear in Australia, customs are to strict. Our bodybuilders have to move overseas.

I've never believed in supplements or anything artificial. My friend was on steroids and he became unbelievably buff in such a short time. He broke his arm and wasn't able to work out for a month, he lost all of it in the same amount of time that he gained it.
 

"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.

Proper use of steroids with balanced diet after years of training are not a waste of time. They can have many positive effects. Unfortunately, people abuse them and use them because they are looking for a quick fix.

Anyone who knows anything about weightlifting (like Mark Rippetoe and Bill Starr, for example) will tell you that the first thing a 6'1 sub 140lb adult male needs to do isn't steroids; it is work on a muscle and weight building diet and a compound-heavy weight lifting routine. He didn't have that, and still doesn't have that, so any gains he makes will quickly come off once he comes off the steroids.

I watched a few of the episodes and after watching a few I'm convinced that it is a satire and/or presented in a way to truly show how bad steroids can be for your long term health.
 

"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.
