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.

Okay so I've printed the book of pook and made a good start on it ... Like for to page 30 last night which is lesson 10 I think and what a good read it is ... It actually makes lots of sense and can wait to jump back on it tonight haha! Anyone else read or reading it?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

The Book of Pook is the reason I found this forum. It revolutionized the way I think, it woke me up from my sleep. I hadn't had sex or dated in 5 years when I found it and started reading it. I hadn't even read half of it before I found a girl and fvcked her brains out. I still hadn't finished it when I fvcked the next girl. I didn't even take long finishing it, maybe around 3 weeks reading a bit when I had time, things just happened fast.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

The idea to treat women like kittens is the most important part to me. Do you get mad at a kitten? Do you worry about what a kitten says or is thinking? It's a simple idea that goes a long way.
Yes. So true. You really can not get mad a women for acting like women. The trouble is that too many men expect women to act like men. The example that I like to always use is only a lunatic stands in the rain shaking his fist at the sky in anger because you are getting wet. Pull out and umbrella or walk away and get out of the rain. No reason to get mad... women are women and rain is rain.

The MINUTE that her needs are not being met, or you stop acting like a man, she will start get b!tchy and try to drive you away.

"There is no rejection; you are merely finding out if she has good taste. After all, she is looking for a guy that fits her interests and tastes. If she doesn't like you for whatever reason, let her! And thank her for doing so!"
Yes!!!

I usually tell myself "I may have dodged a bullet".

Remember, us DJ's can have any lady we want. If they don't want us, we don't want them!!!

No more keyboard jockeying . Action is the place.
The thing I like about Book of Pook is that is really boils down to a two part philosophy.

(1) Do you want to live for yourself, or sacrifice your happiness for others.

(2) Are you going to to be 'safe' or 'free'.
That's really it. Pook talks a lot.of "betting it all" and just going for what you want. Take risks and live the life you want and not worry about what others think of you.
Pook also advocates getting outnof that dreaded comfort zone, also a good point.

I like the use of the word sacrifice RM, fits perfectly in that situation.
 

"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.

"When you were young, your father was a DEMI-GOD. You both feared and loved him. He could be playful when he wanted to. But, always, he was a source of strength, always confident, and always seemed to know the solution to any problem you came across. This feeling of awe you thought of your father is the perfect definiton of a MAN."
