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 would you do in this situation?

I was out to dinner with my family yesterday, and I thought of something I had never thought of before. When the hostess seated us, our table was kind of sticky and the seats on one side were not all that great either. My dad asked her to clean it up and she did... but how would you handle this situation if you were on a dinner date? I mean you don't wanna let your girl sit at a dirty table but then again you wanna be courteous to the restaurant staff. How would you guys handle this situation to let them know you're not happy with a dirty table... but not come off as being a jerk to the restaurant staff?
 

"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.

Get out much?
ROFL!

It's simple. You just ask, "Excuse me, but would it be alright if we were to have someone wipe down this table? It's a bit sticky, and I'd rather not sit in it." Keep it light and friendly. There's no need to be rude.

orrrrr

"Hey, I know you guys are busy and such, but could I get somebody to wipe this down for us? Thank you" and give a geniune smile. When they pull the "Oh we're sorry about that" line, just telll them it's no problem.
 

"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.

Tell the hostess it's quite alright cause your date likes it dirty and you wouldn't be suprised if you got laid right on this table right here right now
