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.

What did you sacrifice to become Alpha?

This is a question to all those that have made it to where they want to be as a Man and Alpha Male.

What did you give up to get there? What did you sacrifice in order to improve yourself? Personally I feel I need to stop drinking alcohol at the weekends and lose friends that are a bad influence if I want to even begin to get to where I want to be. What did you have to do to become truly happy with who you are?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

1) Virginity.

2) Ego. Let go of this and, almost ironically, you'll rarely feel sh!t about anything for a prolonged period of time, ever again.

1. Finally took responsibility for my own **** ups

2. Spent a lot of time drilling the fundementals into my head

Honestly that was it, learn the basics because I really had no clue at all how to interact with women and get rid of my ****ty low self esteem mentality. That took a while but I was listening to guys like Tony Robbins literally all day and eventually it sunk in.

As soon as I started to apply the fundementals while in that mental state, results started to pile up and life changed for me. Wish I'd done it earlier but hey, better late than never

I sacrificed my home state. I hit the road 12 lonely years ago, never to return. Along the way I've had to leave a dozen or so beautiful women who loved me, but now I take home $14,000 per month and have women in 5 states sending me love letters.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Great responses guys thanks.

Infern0 mentioned self esteem. I definitely have some self esteem and 'nice guy' issues that I need to over come. I've been conditioned to seek approval from women for my self worth, which I've learn is a huge no no. I have to sacrifice this external approval in order to get towards my goal of alpha. Hitting the gym more, buying nice clothes, keeping a smart image, no alcohol are my first steps towards internal approval and losing external approval. I guess after this I need to start looking for like minded people to socialise with.

I dont think I'm an alpha. I think Bill Gates is pretty fuking alpha. I'm a joke.

Nevertheless I sacrificed something. I sacrifices my childish thinking, which I would love to go back to, but its too late.

With experience comes knowledge about women and stuff and this is what makes you a man I think.

My feelings. For better or for worse, I'm not sure.

Seeing the world and women for what they are and not what I wish they were.

Realizing that no one can make me happy but me.

You sacrifice having your head buried in the sand and not accepting the world for what it is. You sacrifice not.being able to.take responsibility for your current position in life.
 

"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.

I sacrificed time and possibly money with time being extended to changing the state of mind and perceptions.
