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.

Thinking too much about how others think of me

I always have this trait of always thinking what others think. When I do something that I consider to be stupid and I see others noticing, I just immediately realize that the person who saw it thinks I'm stupid. In simple terms, I care too much of what others think of me.

I noticed that although I've improved myself by being more confident, more outgoing and more funny, I still cannot control myself from caring what others view me. I look for validation and I tried not to, but subconciously I can't.

I think this is a huge road block for me and I really need some help on this issue. When I go to sleep I can't control myself looking what bad things or stupid things I've done that might of ruined my reputation; I believe in myself and yes, I am very outgoing; but I just can't "don't give a f**k of what others think of me."

I am naturally very suspicious and over sensitive about other people. When I get put down by my friends (yea, I think they are joking around), on the outside it looks like it doesn't affect me, but on the inside I feel like sh*t because I can tell that other people is looking at me.


urgent help needed!!
 

"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.

just stop...honestly no one cares..sorry but it's true...
if someone thinks you're not attractive..they wont bother to look
if someone does think you're attractive..then what's the problem

we're all sacks of ****, piss, and elements...honestly..
in the end..we'll all end up the same..dead
not to be pessimistic or anything..but that's the truth

what matters is how they see you as a person..not the exterior

We've all experienced this feeling, more or less. You just have to learn to let go of it... there's no other way.
