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.

I see this book and it's various laws being parroted a lot on this forum. Although I was skeptical at first, I am halfway through this book now and finding it an incredibly useful tome. Definately the most amoral self-help book I've ever read, but just filled to the brim with truth.

What I'm curious about is if any of you guys have actually found instances in your life when you have put one of the laws into action and seen its results?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I like this book but at first I didn’t. I was a little upset that somebody was telling all my secrets! Most of the stuff in the book I do naturally. I never put it in terms like Greene does but… hey who does?

One thing I find very funny about this book is the fact: People that worship DA always say how great of a book it is, yet they down MM. This book backs up everything within MM. The same people say they like the book because it helps them live up to the DA standards. Since you have read most of the book you know that it completely does the opposite.

If anybody thought Mystery was conniving than they should read Greene’s books. Mystery would look like a saint in comparison.

I like all of Greene’s work and he tells it like it is. Upfront and true to nature.

I've put the boldness law into effect more than once for success.

The laws really work which is what makes this such a great book.

One of the best books ever written in fact I'd say.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I've always liked the first review on Amazon. Somebody clearly trying to use one of the laws!

i'll take it even father... If you read that, read "the prince" as well.. People give Robert Greene all this credit but all he did was rewrite the prince by Machiavelli

Absolutely! Prince is a must read, as well as 33 Strategies of War. I actually went to Barnes and Nobles 3 days ago and bought the paperback of, The 48 Laws of Power. Since I was sick of reading it from a computer screen! I love that book! It has so much GREAT information in it. It's also an entertaining book to read!
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
