"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.

he often resets our modem and we dont have internet i think he does that for attention

today he reseted internet along with tv. For 3h i was trying to figure out how to bring it back

there was modem menu in tv and mind you i stopped watching tv/using TV about 17 years ago and had no clue how to make it work because regardless good connected cables it didnt work

anyway i fixed it finally and now he says iwas the one who ruined internet???

its not funny, im 3 hours behind because of some unreasoned/irrational decision

basically, 99% of stuff he says to me is as irrational as it can be and i dont understand it. he changed into woman ???
 

"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.

Resetting modem reboots it. Modem resets are often used when connection goes out for some technical reason. For example just a month ago I was using modemA and LTE dongle connected into a router via USB and it would loose connection often, so resetting it would do the trick. Then I changed to using modemB I had laying around and the issue went away. Chances are your modem looses connection and to fix it he resets it, but the thing is, resetting sometimes does not take care of the issue.

It sounds a lot like you have firmware issue with your modem, most likely something is going bad inside and this type of sht happens. Get a new modem to solve your issue.

As far as your dad, I wouldn't care, trust me, he don't have an issue.

Maybe you have a bad router/modem? Perhaps, someone calling the Internet/TV provider to diagnose the router/modem and why it needs to be reset so often would be a worthy call.

There isn't much to do there, either you reset all settings to factory (don't confuse with pulling the plug) which can be a problem if custom settings are required for connection, or the modem is living a live of it's own and looses connection. I believe this is a cable modem we talking about? Those are notorious for going bad after a storm or brown out.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

If he’s having to reset the modem often, that’s usually done because of connection problems. It’s only a temporary bandaid, not a solution. It’s either a modem problem, faulty inbound line, or line connection.
OR, he wants more output than purchased bandwith and blames the modem.

Bad connection or service provider problem. If you’ve got that speed, the modem is probably high quality and less likely to fail. Think incoming signal continuity…

Oh the problem is easy then, you are sucking off your dad. He is watching a movie on his web tv and then you begin your prn download and internet stops, so he resets it, and in this particular instance might as well fcked with it so you don't get online. You are bugging your dad. Get yourself a DSL line just for yourself, or an LTE modem.

Edit: Maybe you should provide for your own internet browsing. It gets difficult when parents start to cramp your style. I've been there.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.
