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.

at first i was pretty against it , but i see good advice coming from some of the users like penkitten i think it 'll be a good change ...what do you think
 

"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.

There is nothing wrong with receiving a woman's perspective - it brings us their thinking to the forefront, albeit a distorted one at that - one in their favor!! :rolleyes:

I never had a problem with female posters here (unless if they start a lot of drama and such). Some good ones that pop up into mind are Bad lil Pixie, penkitten, and girl_in_a_boy_forum. As far as welcoming more or getting more to come here... nah. If they choose to come, then so be it, but we shouldn't actively 'seek' more.
 

"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.

I don't like them. They always try to make a good husband out of you. Even over the internet, what a bunch of insecure broads. Sure, I'll read her advice, but then I'd think of all what's wrong with her.

But then again, on a 1 to 10 correctness scale, your average male poster on here is between 1 and 5, a female is between 5 and 6.

Welcoming does not sound like a good idea. If they come, so be it. Don't bring your e-love of your e-life on here, she'll e-dump you.

You guys have read the bit in the DJ bible about womans advice being bad? If it applies in real life why not here?

This is like the first thing I learnt about dating. A very very small percentage of women can give dating advice.

And just why the hell would we want more women? They're only productive when they're in the background.
