"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.

There are reasons baring both sides, but none for LTRs that have ONLY logic and rationale to them.
There are ZERO things humans do that have ONLY logic and rationale to them.

Humans are always driven by emotions and we pretend we're driven by logic. Human intentions are never rational. Desire for sex and human companionship, whatever form it takes, is never rational. It is always emotionally driven.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Not emotionally driven. Biologically driven. It is in our genes to reproduce because of evolution. It is also in our genes to stick together because cooperating as groups increases chances of survival more than otherwise.

Emotions are part of the human makeup however, and as such are part of the evolutionary package that has made the species successful, and is passed on in our genes. You can't separate emotion from our biological drives because it's all a part of the whole. Just like the urge to pair bond is a way to ensure survival of our offspring, and is tied in with our biological drive to reproduce.

That said, given the choice of LTRs or plate spinning, I still don't think one decision is any more emotional than the other.
