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.

Was this one of you guys?

Yeah. Don't do this. Ever.

Choice excerpt:

You played with your hair a lot. A woman playing with her hair is a common sign of flirtation. You can even do a google search on it. When a woman plays with her hair, she is preening. I've never had a date where a woman played with her hair as much as you did. In addition, it didn't look like you were playing with your hair out of nervousness.
This guy is clearly a master of womanology. I would follow him anywhere.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

On the upside, this guy is really good at analyzing. And by that I actually mean he's horrible at analyzing and wouldn't be able to reason his way out of an empty closet. An empty closet with no doors or walls.

And they let this guys handle MONEY?!

Maybe he's like Dustin Hoffman's character in Rain Man. Really good with numbers. REALLY horrible with people.

Mike needs a membership here stat.

Biggest AFC ever.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I just thought we had a lot of potential. That's all.

Plus she was wearing red. Which we all know is the color of fertility.

Before a guy sends an email like this he should take a "what if?" thought for a moment..

Imagine you had a date with a woman who you did not click with at all and you weren't interested in her, then she sent you this email. Wouldn't you be pretty fvcking creeped out?!

I know I would lol. This guy knows a thing or two about flirting that you can read in a maxim article, but he really needs to get his hand on the DJ bible or another book of similar doctrine.

AFC of the Year award. Talking about all the millions he's got and spends 3 hours writing this email to some chick who blew him off. What a chump.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Story was all over Facebook yesterday.

Didn't even bother saying anything. It's the kind of thing that doesn't need any more publicity.

-You said, "It was nice to meet you." at the end of our date. A woman could say this statement as a way to show that she isn't interested in seeing a man again or she could mean what she said--that it was nice to meet you. The statement, by itself, is inconclusive.

ROFL

I could be wrong, but my thinking is he's probably recovering from Asperger syndrome, which is something I have. My guess is he has gained a certain amount of social awareness, learned some of the science of game, probably read the PUA community, but obviously isn't aware of the rule of game to never verbalize game, to never argue against rejection. He is analytical but is still lacking self-awareness to calibrate himself and figure out when and why things go wrong, for which of course he is oblivious.

His email was TLDR

seriously, it really does take hard work to be simp. I wonder if he even spell/grammar check his sh1t. Probably sat up all night writing that.

Poor guy
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Canada, eh?
I dont think it is real.... Maybe something that was never meant to be sent, sort of like a mental masturbation exercise. But I can see similar but shorter variations being sent out on a regular basis.

actually when I read the letter it came off kinda cute, in a way I think that was his purpose for it.

You see what he was doing was using the power of suggestion when he hinted that they had potential, that she was "attracted" to him by playing with her hair, eye contact etc. and he also tried coming off as a "jerk" by being assertive in the tone of his writing style but at the same time gave her validation.

If you want someone to really think about you, and this is true especially with females hence why they love to text and read, you write it down.

Mike had nothing left to lose and it was genius thinking up something very unusual to differentiate him from the pack of other male suitors and write her a letter that utilized the power of suggestion.

I think it's a masterpiece, and I might just do the same. lol

I don't know why folks have to go off on stuff like this. I live by the fact that I leave things open with flakey women. Those flakey relationships are much stronger the second time around because they have some history with you then.

u guys just don't know what you are missing with Asian women.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
