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.

Uggggg, I will admit, I don't get as nervous as I used to before an approach. But still, I **** it up and it lasts for about 5 seconds. I walk up with something so stupid and indirect to say and mumble it and I have to fu,king repeat what I said and boom, approach over from my retarted yes or no question. No number, I just end up looking like an idiot.

This is my pathetic approach of the night on some girl my age that works at the bowling alley.

Me: Do you have a brother?

Her: yea

Me: is he (name)

Her: no

Me: Oh, you look like some kid i know, thats why (she walks away)

If I can get this down, I will have the biggest edge over any other guy, because guys my age don't approach girls, never, dosent happen. My friend dosen't even know what a pick up artist is. So help me out with these approaches bc I suck. Gracias
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

It's not pathetic, it's a learning curve.

Closed questions are a no-no. Keep them open, invite conversation. If a girl just has to say yes or no, then as you said, it's over and done with right there and then.

Keep the mentality on the positive side too. Every girl wants you, you're time and effort is valuable.

On a side note, guys your/our age do approach. It's not uncommon at all.

I live in the suburbs about an hour away from new york city. appraching girls is like a term that will get you a blank stare.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Ah, I see. Sorry, my United States geography isn't very flash. Good to see you're on your way to learning tools that give you the edge anyway.

Oh how countries differ.

what are u talking about. i am from the suburbs, an hour away of new york city and i've picked up chicks when i was 16 all the time in the malls.

u should go to the high school forum to get answers from kids in your generation.

theres no reason to be scared when you approach girls

when i was 16 i just went up to them and said 'whats up'

what your doing is better tho - its more like what i do now --- dont ask them if they have a brother - if they say NO , then ur screwed. ask them if they graduated from some school....say that they look familair...ask them what school they graduated from...get their name..talk to them blah blah blah

"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.

Don't be so hard on yourself. At least you approached, which is a lot more than the keyboard jockeys here do. Just learn from the experience and think of what you can do to improve your game for the next time.

Like tonight at a bowling alley, I approached a 3 set just for sh1ts and giggles. I wasn't expecting it to go anywhere, because they were acting like attention *****s, but I did it for the experience. It didn't go anywhere, but I still had a lot of fun, and now I have a story to tell my buddies.

If you become more attractive it doesn't matter that much what you say. I recommend working on that, so women will be glad you approach them and are very open and receptive to you. Instead of just throwing yourself into a lot of cold approaches while you are really sketchy. Talk to more women in your social circle, so you learn to become cool and relaxed first.
I really dont like the idea of coming across insistent and needy cause women dont like that. I want them to be glad that a guy like me wants to talk to them. And you can make that happen by improving yourself (improving your character, body and style).

I'm telling u guys, no one I know approaches girls. I donno. I was with my friend at the mall and we were standing there starring at these two girls with our mouths open. We then realised we were checking out the same girls. Then he blurted out the greatest one liner ever to me,,,"I wish I could like pay them 5 dollars to like say hi to me". He's not afc, dosent approach girls like anyone else I know.

Exactly. People you know don't do it, but it still happens. There are a lot of people in the world you don't know ;)

"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.
