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.

PROM. I am kind of suprised that there hasn't been a flood of threads about this subject. I am a junior we get to go as well as seniors. Is it even worth it? Whens a good time to ask a girl to go? 2 months ahead? 1? I really could care less about the whole thing except this girl who used to use me asked me if I wanted to go with her and I said no. That felt good, but I've got my sights on a few others. Any experiences? Stories? Tips? Not just for me, but for anyone else thinking on going to it. :D
 

"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.

Ask around the same time other people start asking. Wait no later than three weeks before the event or it's just gonna be too hard to get your sh-it together in time.
 

"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.

What if they're asking like two months in advance? Some girl was telling me its considerate to do that so the girl can pick out her dress and get their **** together in time. :confused:

My prom is April 2nd. It's getting here quick. I just asked my date this week, but that's because I had to drop my other date(ex). I'd ask around a month before your prom.

I personally can't wait. My friends don't dance and some of their dates are hot, so I'll be dancing with them and my date. Then after we are going to my friend's cottage and having a party. The only killer is the money.... $110 for 2 tickets, $125 for limo, tux $?, corsage $25, booze, pot....$$$$$

Then be considerate and ask two months in advance. Each school has it's own standards for when is the appropriate time to start asking. Talk to people, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out when the asking period is for your school.
