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.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I think I've seen that before. 
In any society that emphasizes the "common good", there will always be people who will freeload on the good nature of others without giving anything themselves, and they have nothing better to do than breed.
The reason America created such noble men in its inception is that they were all farmers and woodsmen, people who had to work their arses off for their very survival, let alone to thrive economically/politically/socially.
Now we have a society that works "successful" people to the bone, taxes the crap out of them, and uses that money to support the "less-fortunate"...as if it was "fortune" that caused them to fail.
Lack of personal responsibility.

Dear Squirrels,
All accepted,but weren't they also Religious?and did they not also have the cohesive effects of sharing common Enemies?.....As to Evolution,yes Social Evolution is all around us,but looking at a deeper level there is certainly evidence of some "Supreme Architect".A creator whose influence roams the entire Universe.

I'll agree that religion is a factor in a lot of things, but I dunno if it's a factor in THIS discussion. Many of the "stupid people" who are breeding believe in a deity of some kind. Many of them do not as well. I don't think belief in God is particularly significant in this particular discussion.Scaramouche said:

Dear Squirrels,
Point taken,with people on the bottom of the genetic pile,breeding faster than the remainder.We are not talking of Evolution but rather devolution.

"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.
From my own observations at 30, this is generally true. Most of my less intelligent friends are breeding quicker than my intelligent friends. However to be fair, the later are catching up and have the infrastructure to have more kids as evidenced by my one friend who just purchased a home and had their second. The really sad thing is that these kids are all growing up in single parent homes, so this is the norm rather than the exception.
The ones that always bothered me are the family's with a ton of siblings. These are religious families that don't believe in contraception, but do believe in welfare checks and food stamps. Whats worse is that these values are instilled into the children, and some wish to pass along the same legacy. Thinking about it from a mathematical standpoint, such family units over the generations will geometrically outpace a normal and intelligent family.

The culture seems to reward the less intelligent/prosperous people for breeding. A lot of single, unemployable women depend on the number of children they have for their welfare/child support.synergy1 said:
Meanwhile, if you're a smart guy, you have to realize all the risks there are in having children, what with the current divorce rate. For many people, the reward is enough to offset them. For others, not.

Here's a guy I just posted about. Come to think of it, he resembles President Camacho.

Think how amazing it was to have so many intelligent men, get together at one point in time, with a common purpose and draft the Constitution of the United States!

Of course these days, I believe that with the move toward socialism in this country, a 14 trillion national debt with 10% unemployment and uncontrolled spending, we may just be witnessing the downfall of Rome.
"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.
