"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.

When AI chat bots become prevalent on forums, social media, and dating apps, what will the point be? I am cashing my chips in when that time comes.

I simply don't get much intellectual/mental stimulation from talking to a robot. There are a few posters here that are so lacking in basic human interaction and understanding that I wonder sometimes. I usually avoid conversing with them.

Thoughts?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

I’m from the south. Although I’m a Southerner, I wouldn’t consider myself the stereotype. However, the stereotype is quite prevalent and does exist for a reason. Therefore the Internet actually allows me to reach people who have higher intellect, curiosities about things, and different perspectives.

It can be a mixed bag on this forum, but sometimes the person I expect to say the least, provides something quite profound

The Duke I enjoy your post, mate you have to realize some people are low IQ, some people that are autistic a lot of people lack social skills or awareness, and some people that are mentally ill. They need not be in a forum but in therapy. Ever since 2014 I made it a habit not to meet people off forums anymore. To many socially awkward weirdos (not all but some) that live in a different reality lol

In regards to AI, once it turns into AGI (artificial general intelligence) and the AI can reason like a human but has the intelligence of a higher thing well that's when shyt finna go left
