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.

What do you prefer when going out? What gets you the best results. I don't like shaving but feel kind of grimy with too much stubble. I like the look when I use the beard trimmer with no guard on which leaves a slight stubble like in this pic I just snapped with photo booth lol. You can see a hint of stache and beard.

Is this kind of douchey looking? I really prefer not shaving totally clean unless I'm going out for a special occasion etc. I think slight stubble looks better on guys in their 20's and clean shaven when your 30+ What do u think?
 

"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.

Stubble is generally a plus for picking up ladies. But it doesn't mean completely unshaven. You still should shave your neck and under you chin. The stubble should cover your beard area only.

It's great for any guy who isn't greying yet. Once that starts, shave it clean.

As long as your neck is always clean then it doesn't matter. Nobody likes a neckbeard, that's for sure.

I always like having a stubble, but on the flipside, I always think I've made the right choice immediately after I shave. It just looks fresh.

And I 2nd the neck thing. No neck beard.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Mix it up. Be unpredictable. Carlos Xuma endorses the idea of changing your look periodically.

Damn we have been on here about the same amount of time and I am digging a lot of your $hit man!! Guess us being around same age is why I get just about everything you post.

I digress.. I do exactly as Bigneil said!

Stubble. Dates go NOTICEABLY better with stubble. One time shaved and wore glasses to a date and IL dropped off the map lol.
No $hit?? I never wear my glasses on first date and I always shave, but I will give stubble a shot on my next date JUST to see if your mileage is same as mine.. Interesting indeed.

Yeah I get best response (I think) with a slight stubble and shaved neck. But like no more than 2-3 days growth. That seems the ideal. Many of the guys who rock stubble are more at a week's length (the 1st guard) on the trimmer, whereas I do no guard.

Most women, if asked though, seem to prefer clean shaven.
