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.

After doing some stuff with this chick (who definately is interested in me), she tells me that she's dating other guys also (apparently guys have been hitting on her recently) and that she doesn't want a long-term relationship right now.

This is confusing to me. What would you guys say this means? Does it indicate a low interest level? This doesn't make sense though because she is definately into me, yet if she is as interested as she acts, why the hell would she be dating other guys. I was thinking maybe she just wanted to try to put some pressure on me (since I've been doing this to her), trying to make me think there's some competition, so that I just don't blow her off.

What are your guys' thoughts?
 

"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.

It means she has the right concept of dating. Too many women will get all pissy if you're dating them but seeing other women. This is a great opportunity for you to see other women as well, or gain a f buddy.

She is telling you that she doesn't want an exclusive relationship with you thats all. Its not a bad thing at all - she is just being honest with you.

At some point she'll let you know if she wants to exclusively date you.

So what that means is don't put all your eggs in one basket and just have fun with her and date other people right now.

i've had this happen to me with an HB9 if you just play it cool, like i did she'll end up ditching the other guys for you and you can probably end up an a pretty good relationship.

how long it goes on for is totally up to you or how you act during the relationship.

In your head
Spot on, you got some great replies!

This is totally normal and reasonable. She could be seeing other people at this point, or she could be fabricating it.

Its doesn't matter at this point. You're not even together, it's her business!

What matters whether you can play your cards right and get at date with her.

Play from there.
 

"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.
