"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

Fun posting ridiculous OLD profile screenshots

"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.

This isn't really that egregious, more indicative of a common mindset on Tinder. In-your-face incongruity you really don't see anywhere else. Yes, let's show off out titties lying on the couch and say we're looking for long-term.

It's covered by icons but directly above it says "looking for long-term partner+". The "+" meaning "and possibly marriage".

It's threads like these that make me question my involvement here, we all know OLD is hurting bad, people can reverse search their own images and this site will come up, I definitely wouldn't be posting your own messages alongside a picture as you could be identified.

Explain to me how I can be identified by posting a screenshot off an app? Do you actually understand how technology works?

The messages that would need to be screenshotted are unique, nobody would possesses them outside of the people receiving them... More common sense than an understanding of technology.
 

"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.

That would require:

1. the other person even knows about the forum
2. is capable of navigating it
3. can find the post
4. remembers the conversation

However, we are posting OLD profiles, not conversations, for the most part. I also would not post anything here I deemed could ever blowback. I'm just not that interesting or important.

The irony of being on a hookup app and looking for long term and marriage.

It's definitely a flex, be it borne of revenge-seeking or power-tripping

People have gotten long term relationships from Tinder, but Hinge and Bumble are known more for longer term relationship seekers.

From what I've seen with old the successful relationships tend to be ugly fat people. Because usually they're going for the same thing so its easy for them to both find a fatty. Unlike a guy whos not an ugly lardball that has standards. So yes, i think fat ugly people seem to do better on old since their bar is low. A lot of fat and ugly women on old. Thats just what I've seen irl personally. I work a job with young women like just out of hs and college and none of them are on old. All meet guys traditional way. Only ones I see on old i worked with was a couple fatties.

I’d ask that readers kindly refrain from posting their opinions about OLD on this thread.

This thread is not meant for that - there are, several other threads on the site dedicated to taking about OLD please take your opinions there.

As stated this thread is meant to act as a repository for screenshots of absurd/funny profiles that we come across on OLD, nothing else.

Thanks!

In woman words: I expect you to pay my way.
I can see the emotional baggage already on her face. Single mom looking for someone mature, emotionally stable :D :D By the end of the 'about me' section the pretense was falling and she came as close as possible of saying she's looking for a dupe.:rolleyes:

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.
