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.

Stop blowing these sex differences up to epic proportions.

Women aren't super duper better at reading emotions or body language. They don't have a 360 degree field of vision. They have no idea what you are thinking. They aren't speaking telepathically while you grunt.

Women are CLUELESS. I don't know where you guys get the idea that they have any idea what's going on. Go read any message board relationship garbage for women and it will be full of stupid women who have no idea or worse, THINK they have some idea.
I agree. Women just focus on and put more importance on obvious body language signs, but they are no more accurate nor able to read people than a guy is. Women really are clueless. They don't understand each other or even themselves, let alone understand men. Women are simply prone to judgemental and jump to erroneous conclusions. That's not being clued in.
 

"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.

Women do have an advantage over the average guy, while we were playing football or dodge ball they were playing house. They have been preparing for the dating world since birth. Women are clueless to the minority of guys who are either naturals or some sort of community guy, if you are in those two categories women find you unpredictable and you are essentially invulnerable to her tests.

social proof is the most important factor in determining attraction, PERIOD. all the other stuff, wealth, looks, muscles, height are a factor of a magnitude less important, other than by how much they influence the social proof.

I'm going to seriously disagree with you on that one. Its a combination of things that makes the attraction. You can't be a limbless retard with Pam Anderson on your arm and expect to attract any females. Everything has to be present in the right proportions for attraction to take place.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I don't care how much confidence I think I have, I'm good-looking and 5'8", and am dwarfed by these douches. I walk by girls and most don't even look at me, the ones that do just keep going. and it really sucks because I'm not bad looking.
Yes, you are bad looking. Shortness is just another form of ugly. But at 5'8", you are not that ugly (I am 5'5", so I am even more uglier than you.)
