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.

For many of us highschool/college age students, alcohol plays a regular role in social functions. As a result, we often face a certain dilemma:

Is it ok to hook up with a girl when she is drunk?

For the most part, I say yes. I've found the majority of girls who are willing to hook up when drunk are equally attracted to you when sober. In fact, initially inebriated hook ups often lead to subsequent sober interactions. However, there are some situations where drunken hook ups CANNOT be advised, and I propose the following list of rules for any self-respecting DJ to keep in mind. Do NOT hook up with a girl if:

1. She is drunk, you are sober.
This rule should be followed primarily to protect one's own reputation. Correct or not, when other people see a sober guy making out with a drunk girl, they instantly assume the guy is a punk taking advantage a girl who doesn't know any better. Even if this is not the truth of the matter, avoid these situations or you may find yourself labeled as a rape artist.

2. She is really, REALLY drunk
The general idea behind this one is, if you don't think she's going to remember it tomorrow, don't do it tonight. If she only learns about your rendezvous from others, it's not going sit right in her mind. If a girl is vomitting, intermittenly unconscious, unable to walk on her own, unable to form a coherent sentance, etc...These are all signs to stay away.

3. She has previously turned you down while sober
Fairly self-explanatory. If a girl who has rejected you before is suddenly ready to get it on, chances are she is violation of Rule #2.

Feel free to comment on the above or propose other rules you believe necessary.
 

"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.

They'd better be guidelines. How's anyone suppose to get laid with strict rules like that!
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I don't know, but not following these three rules does put you at a higher risk of rape charges being pressed on you.

I like this post. Ive always tried to avoid the drunken hookup because Im usually pretty sober at parties.

Ive got one more guideline though.

4. If you have to think for more than a minute about whether or not hooking up with her will look shady/ be rape. DONT DO IT!
Chances are if you thought about it looking wrong, so will she in the morning and so will people who see the two of you.

However, I have seen alot of what I would consider taking advantage to the point of rape at parties. The girl afterwards said nothing and the guy didnt get his rep hurt at all. BUT

This is good. This can also be applied to deciding whether or not she is hot enough. If you're drunk and thinking a chick is borderline (let's say, HB6) then the next morning you're gonna wake up next to a HB3 and wonder "What the fcuk was I thinking?" Not a good situation.

No real problem there...Although it kinda sucks if you bag a hot girl and don't even remember it the next morning.
 

“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.

Threaten to press charges unless she has consensual sex with you :cool:.

I'm only kidding, of course.

i like the rule about not taking advantage of a girl that is vommitting, not because its a sign she is drunk, but because making out with her is just nasty
