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.

OK, so I remember one little joke in a movie where there's a blind guy and his friend sitting on a couch and the blind guy has a rubix (sp?) cube, and he will move the block one click and holds it up and the guy next to him says, "no." and they repeat.

So its like *click* "no," *click* "no," *click* "no."

Does ANYONE remember what movie this is from? I thought it was hilarious when I saw it, but I don't remember what it's from.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Is it the one with Gene Wilder (Willy Wonka) and Richard Pryor (black comedian) where one of them is blind and the other is deaf? I can't remember the name but if you search their names on google you'll find it.

The skit your actually thinking of involved a blind man, a deck of cards and a little homeless guy.

The blind guy was trying to do a magic trick (guess the card?) of the homeless guy. He went through the deck holding up card after card saying "is this it" and he would always get a "no" from the homeless guy.

The movie is UHF starring Weird Al Yankovic. Thanks for playing.
 

"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.

HA! That was it! Thank you, ever onward! Now I remember. That came on TV a few weeks ago. Must be it.

Ace of Flames, do you always say stupid things noone wants to hear? Honestly, No one cares if you think the idea isn't funny. I'm sorry your uncle touched you where your bathing suit goes, but don't take it out on the rest of us.

In UHF the homeless man is searching for a rare coin. The blind man has a handfull of change and is showing the homeless man one coin at a time.

Each time he holds up a coin he says "is this it?" to wich the bum replies, "no."

I remember, it was a blind guy and a rubix cube. I don't know where I got the card trick thing but it was definitely UHF.

I do remember the coins but I think that was a different part. (Did they do the gag twice?)

I remember the homeless guy getting the rare coin from RJ Fletcher. He went up to him and said:

"Change....you gotta any Change....Hey mister you got any change?"

Then Fletcher gave him the change and the homeless guy gave him a dollar. Then at the end of the movie, the homeless guy went back to him and said "thanks mister, you gave me a rare quarter and I was able to buy a really neat watch (a rolex)"

Okay you are 100% correct. I just watched that part on DVD and the bum is checking the rubix cube each time.

Now I hope we can sleep at night.

LOL,

I'm glad you have the DVD as it was driving me nut! I could remember it crystal clear except for the fact that it was a rubix cube (I can't believe I thought it was cards)

I wish I had it on DVD,

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
