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.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"Act like you have no pride in yourself." doesn't this go against the ****y/funny/confident rule? Or am I just really tired and reading this wrong?

Colin,

I was wondering about that myself!
Perhaps the author thinks a proud guy would be above the society of women and/or even THINKING about them/their cares at all.

Or maybe he means overcoming the ego, the Im-better-than-this part of yourself? Anyway, no idea.

11. Agree thoroughly with the goals of feminism - especially the central ones - whatever they happen to be at the time. In fact you should agree with what any woman has ever said on any subject. But whatever you do you should never change the way you actually treat women or you will be in danger of becoming a saint - and a saint is a joke as far as a woman is concerned. By all means tell a woman she is extremely intelligent and courageous, but be sure to treat her like she is no different to any other woman - with no will of her own and whose thoughts and feelings are totally inconsequential.
hahaha, this stuff is hilarious!
