I'll admit, I've never spun multiple plates as once, but there's a chance that I may be very soon. As I was doing some grocery shopping and saw all the Valentines decoration it hit me. If you are spinning plates, how do you handle Valentines? Any girl you're seeing is going to want to go out the night of Valentines Day. I can't imagine saying, "Uhhh, I don't feel like going out for Valentines Day." How do you handle that situation where you might be dating different girls and they all want to do something on Valentines?
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.
Valentines Day: Question for those spinning plates
- Thread starter speakeasy
- Start date
"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'm a tom leykis listener and i avoid all of my women around valentines day and then hookup with them afterwards. im not going to get suckered into buying any woman dinner or gifts on this special "romantic' day.
You're a man and you do what you want to do. if you dont want to go out then dont! stop letting women pressure you into spending your hard earned money and time on sh1t you dont want to do.speakeasy said:I can't imagine saying, "Uhhh, I don't feel like going out for Valentines Day."
you avoid the hell out of them around V day! Or do a lunch date and then dinner date make an excuse why you can't go to dinner with the lunch girl.
Tell them you take your mother out on V-day since your dad died or you have a family gathering, you have to work etc.
I got lucky last year I had about a two hour distance between my plates and the distance wasn't feasible on Vday cause my Jeep had just died.

I don't celebrate Vagina Day even if I'm in a LTR.
Be prepared to lose a plate or two after that though. I lost one last year for that reason, although that night I took a bunch of single girls out for drinks after dance class for a group V-Day celebration and ended up with a new plate.
That's pretty much what I do, and I often add that I don't celebrate an American holiday (as I live in Australia).theunflushables said:Just tell them you don't believe in a holiday that's shoved down our throats so card companies, chocolate companies, and jewelers can make money.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
