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 do you think went wrong with this DayGame approach?

The plate's expression seems like she is totally appalled.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

The exact same words and tonality and everything would have 'worked' in a different situation. It's almost never ever a 'game' issue

In this situation it's a mixture of

1/ just a lack of attraction. I didn't watch the whole vid but the guy is described as a '4'. So makes sense

2/ Location. Looks to be the UK. People who don't live here don't seem to realise that outside of maybe central London (where PUA's film due to knowing that tourists are more receptive), or possibly places up North like Newcastle, talking to strangers just isn't really a thing here. It's worlds apart from America in that sense. The confused, suspicious look of contempt on her face is just classic! lol. She's screaming 'why are you talking to me? I don't know you! This is weird!!' in her head (which funnily enough is almost exactly what a girl said to my wingman the other night when he approached!)

Even if that dude was a fair bit better looking, there'd still be fairly decent odds it would have played out exactly the same. It's why i've always said that cold approach (particularly here) is literally just a game of trying to find the gilrs who think you are hot, AND who also happen to be unusually friend/sociable with strangers. Hence you need to put in some serious numbers in order to get lucky!

The dating company 'love systems' made a really long, detailed post about the difference between game in the US and the UK from the perspective of their various dating coaches once. I remember agreeing with most of it. One of the things was something lke (paraphrased) how walking up too a girl and saying 'hi, i'm gary' too a girl in America would likely get a smile and a reply of 'Hi! I'm Sarah! Nice to meet you'. Whereas in the UK, if you walk up too a girl and say 'hi, I'm Gary', she would be a mixture of confused, scared, suspicious. She would possible say 'Errr....OK? and walk away. No way is she gonna volunteer her name and encourage further communication. She'd think you were maybe very unusual/odd or possibly trying to sell her something

Most guys are idiots.

They believe looks are far more important than they are.

They think if they "looksmax" everything else will take care of itself.

But most guys have horrible, cringy, creepy, uncalibrated personalities.

It's like trying to open up a restaurant and trying to sell sh*t sandwiches and believing all you need is an attractive storefront.

Then nobody wants to buy your sandwiches and you spend all your time whining on social media about how hard it is to run a business.

Poor you.

-The approacher is dressed as if he's attending the company barbecue, has a nerdy voice and demeanor

-He uses a great deal of unspeak, borders on being in interview mode

-He's underhanded, rather than overt, pretending that he requires directions to a location he's not headed towards

All of which did fewer favors for his chances than meth and booze did for Lindsay Lohan's career

I like the first guys approach, he looks like’ McLovin ‘ from the movie SuperBad :D

His verbal game is technically good imo
opens indirect, does some banter, and drops a Neg tease in response to her BF objection about something in her teeth (nice!) . He’s showing confidence ,balls and doing some status play.

but.. unfortunately she is a Red Zone girl for him.
Game mainly works on the Grey Zone /Amber Zone girls imo, the ‘maybe’ Girls.
she’s just too far out of his league, obviously.

He needs to go the gym and get super -jacked,
Probably take steroids to.do that.
Get a fake tan on top.
Platform boots perhaps.
Add some tattoos and wear some bling and a bad boy bandana or something.

Only then might he have a chance w a chick like that,

So, in summary - completely transform himself into a brand new person externally,
and then also internally
with a new brain-engine qnd completely new full set of Alpha behaviours. To match his new Alpha outer look.

lol :rofl:

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

McLovin had single-handedly saved what would have been an otherwise awful movie.

such a classic. I was howling laughing in the cinema when I watched it.
The scene where he’s busted perving on the chicks g-string.. “uhh it’s 10:33” :rofl:

And the spermicidal lube scene ..
