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.

This tip is aimed at forgetful guys, like me.
If your phone is like mine, when you add a number, you can give it a name, and at any time add notes to it.
When i take a girls name and number into my phone i add something descriptive so that i can remember who she is a couple of days later.
This may be the name of the club i'm at or the suburb which she lives in.

I've been doing that for a good year and it works a treat.

I hinted at this before. "at any time add notes to it." This is something I have JUST started doing. I should have started long ago.
Here's a quick story which happened to me recently. I met a girl, Michelle. Whilst listening to her, she mentioned her "new kitten - toby". Well, i added a note in with her name "new kitten - toby". While preparing to take her on a date later in the week, i popped into the petshop and bought a little toy for kittens. At the end of the date, when i was dropping her off I mentioned the toy for toby. Of course she was super impressed that i remembered toby and was so thoughtful. I was invited in to meet toby..
The rest is history.
 

"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.

HAHAHA... good idea, but I hope you mean after you walk away or something.. because it'd be real weird if you stand there for 2 minutes just writing something in your phone with her standing there.

Still good though.:p

wow this tip is one of those that is so obvious that I wanna hit myself for not doing it. Maybe later this week I will clean out my phonebook and report back with how many numbers I've gotten who I have no idea who they belong to.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I love those cheaper phones targeted at business users (ie. the Siemens models). They have a crapload of space for you to type info on people.
