"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.

Do you think castrated males live longer because they don't have the stress of dealing with trying to find a female to mate with?

I was reading this, and it got me interested:


Men and other mammals live longer if they are castrated, says researcher
 

"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.

Any article that opens with "A new study shows..." is to be regarded with more suspicion than a stand-up comic who swears:

"I'm doing this just to make people laugh and bring joy to the world: Regularly being the center of attention doesn't comprise at least 50% of my motivation"

Hi MDJ,
You pose an interesting question....In the absence of Pierce might I suggest that the increased longevity might also be due to decreased testosterone levels possibly decreasing the risks of Cancer?....Being in a steady relationship also reduces Testosterone significantly and improves longevity another causal link?

Its something chemical in the body. Its already been proven that castrated animals live longer than non-castrated. Scientists are trying to understand why that is. They believe there is a definite link between male hormones(testosterone) and aging. Castrated male DNA is more similar to female DNA. Its likely that when you slow down the production of testosterone, you slow down aging.

 

"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.

The older you get the less testosterone you produce.

So, the older you get, the longer you'll live?

I'd argue the reason is chemical and hormonal rather than worrying about getting women.

@MatureDJ Are you thinking of cutting off your nuts?
