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.

As we all know, one of the keys to becoming a DJ is the ability to put up with rejection and not let it bother you.

So lets' make a thread with some of the funniest rejections, they can be funny for any reason. Perhaps the way you went about the whole thing was AFC (these ones are always the funniest in my opinion :D), maybe she had a boyfreind or maybe she gave you a funny rejection.

I've got a couple to start us up.

1.

Me and my mates approached a couple of girls in a bar, this was actually my first real cold approach. I eventually got one of their numbers and went home. The week after I was out again and thought I'd see if she was about, so I got hold of her and was promptly greeted with the following,

"Sorry, I'm at my boyfreind's house"

Me and my mate just burst out laughing!!!:D

2.

I was in a club and saw a girl sitting by herself, she was only about a 5-6 but I thought it'd be the prime oppurtunity to tune the DJ strings. I approached her and the following conversation ensued:

Me: So, what are you doing sat by yourself then?
Girl: Not much
Me: You should be out dancing, it cost a fiver to get in here
Girl: I was dancing earlier, my mates have gone to get some drinks
Me: Right, but you still should be having a good time, why are you sat here looking so morbid?
Girl: Because I ****ing want to, alright?

I again thought this was rather funny, it's amazing how annoyed some people can get with people who are just trying to be freindly!

So what are your funniest rejections then guys?
 

"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.

a reliable source

A friend of mine picked up a date from a chick at a club and went to her house. I think he actually borrowed this line by the way but this guy doesn't lie.

He was concerned because he couldn't remember what she looked like. He took flowers to the unit and knocked on the door. Apparently she was, well, he said she had several layers of teeth and was kinda sluggish and fugly.

She openned the door, he said "Hi" handed her the flowers and said "these are for you, thanks for the date, I came in the car, good night". Turned and went back to his car.

This guy has had probably 1000 women, he is 37, single and only had one relationship that lasted four months. He gets a woman EVERY time he goes out and has NEVER asked a woman for a date prior or since that time. He use to tell me "you have to be a staya to be a playa".

Mind you, this guy is very good looking.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
