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.

Why some pp do not eat pizza crusts?

"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.

You see this more now days since so many people want to avoid carbs. But even 50 years ago there were people who didn't like to eat the crust. I've always thought it was incredibly wasteful.

By the way, I'm talking about the dough around the outside of the pizza here, not the underside. Just to be clear.

The lack of sauce.
 

"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.

I think the crust is the best part. In fact better than the actual pizza.

I don't eat pizza much but when I do I eat the crust first. Done that since I was a kid. It's a save the best for last mindset I guess. Best being the toppings.

Some people don't like "plain" bread. Like some people cut the crusts off sandwiches.

Personally, I like a pizza with light sauce, thick crust. When I was in HS I worked at a pizza place that made their own dough. After a fresh batch the owner would cook a pizza with ONLY crust, a little cheese, garlic, and oregano. That was pretty good.
