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.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
I agree. For someone partaking in multi-dating or plates, all you had to do is listen to him. He had the formula.WTF?
He is actually banned as well. Thought this was a nonsense post at first.
What is up? Any mods got something to say on banning the most useful poster on the website?
The word "faggot" was to get you to stop thinking in the poor way that you where (IE: getting phvcked in the a$$ by HER). It was to motivate one, and if you didn't agree with his message you could very well not listen to him.You realize that you are banning someone on the level of Bonecracker, or Pook?
Merely because he uses the word "faggot"?
Come on, guys. I thought this place was better than that. And honestly, it really has been, as far as I have experienced it.
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.
Yea, great wisdom IF you agreed with him and thought LTRs were carp. Otherwise you were all sorts of ugly names.I agree. For someone partaking in multi-dating or plates, all you had to do is listen to him. He had the formula.
Wow. This site does not ban men posting about:He was banned for repeatedly making personal attacks on other members. We are still in process of deciding how long it will be for.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
No, I dont think you disagreed with lefty, it appeared as if you missed missed that he said it was temporary.You don't think that I disagreed with him before?
I have argued with him. We are both arseholes in our way.
Who cares? Value is value.
You called me names before too. You think I hold it against you?Get over it, people. Value is value. Take people for what they are, not for what they aren't.
Some guys merely don't like the ego challenge of someone like that. They don't realise that challenge is good for their game.
Suspending him is really not good. If it's a week or whatever, then fine.
If it's longer, then the frame of this website is determined by the frame of it's posters.
And that guy's frame was damn useful to have around here.
oh hell...it's about to be come a hash tag.....lolFree Poon King.
We disagreed sometimes, but the person with the most Likes on SS (around 1900) can't be wrong.
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.
If there was one member on SS I'd sleep with, it'd definitely be me. I already won myself over though and have been sleeping with myself for almost 18 years. feelsgoodmanNo homo, but if I was going to sleep with one male SS member, it would be Poon King.
Lol, I called you "Barney Fife" a few times, not "beta faggot" over and over and over.And you have gotten "offensive" when I have questioned your frame. .
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.
