"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.

So yesterday I decided to went out with a friend to a party. And as some guys her adviced me to meet new women I tried it.

I've met a 18yr old and enjoyed that party with her. Have to say that it was good kissing someone after my break up. She showed a high interest level and we had such a great night.

I had some drinks (something I feel a bit guilty about), but I think in that situation I would not do much without drinking something. So I got some whisky and drink it with my friends. Hope to get back my goals of no alcohol again.

Had a great time talking with that girl. She was that kind of nerd girl and we talked about some stuffs I didnt imagine to talk to a girl on a party like star wars and stuffs like that. Also the kissing was great, we started kissing and she got hot and I was crazy about taking her to my bed.

I still have that kind of sad feeling after broke up but it less than the other days, and it was really good meeting someone that showed a genuine interest and desire. She is not from my town, but maybe I can have another date with her.

I just want to be able to go out and do not feel that need to drink. Idk if its ok to allow myself to have some drinks when going out... But it happened.

Today Im thinking to go to the cinema and watch a movie. Like a solo went to cinema and enjoy a good movie.

Slowly I think I will be able to get over that ex and be fine.
 

"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.

You will get over it and you’ll be fine. You proved to yourself that interested women are plentiful. Just keep doing what you’re doing and let a little more time pass. Soon that relationship will have no effect on you.

"Im so sad my ex broke up with me. All I have left is hot 18 year old girls throwing themselves at me. Life is so hard"

Just joking bro. U know Im really glad for you. Keep it up. Also, nothing wrong with drinking socially.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

That was good man. I had a long time to think about all that happened and the more I stay alone/single the more Im feeling better.

My conclusion was that I ignored some initial red flags and it happened all that mess. She didnt like me the way I thought and also never truly respected me based on her behaviors.

Had my mistakes too and Im taking this as a learning.

Working out constantly and Im meeting new plates. So things are flowing quite good. :)

Thank you for all your support man!
