"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

It's coming to 9:00pm and I've just realized I have spent practically all day on my computer... and this isn't an abnormality. I'm 21 and while worried about myself I'm more concerned for even younger kids. I will (and can) endeavor to get out a lot more (my photo album consists of "night time pictures" :( ) and get some more hobbies, but what about the "myspace generation" or kids even younger who have practically grown up with this all around them? Are they giving up their bicycles for computers, and the internet? What do you guys think about our growing reliance on technology and it's affects on society?

I had many hobbies when I was younger, but sitting here on the computer just seems easy. I can socialize on facebook, research on wikipedia and entertain myself in countless ways... but I realize and over-indulgence in this is very bad. I just want to go back to the old-school you know?
 

"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.

I think once the U.S government's program C3I becomes self aware like the fictional Skynet it is the beginning of the end for humanity.

Read the short story online called "I have no mouth but I must scream" to see why.

Was this thread inspired by my Zen cell phone thread. Anyway, for my incite on this you can read it there.
 

"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.

I had exactly the same complaint about myself. Then I bought a house and was amazed to find out I'm in a tiny dead spot where it's not possible to get any internet but dialup.

It's been a year and I don't think I would spend nearly as much time on the computer anymore even if I had internet at home. Try going unplugged for a while it's not nearly as bad as you would think.

Not having google & wikipedia for every single little question you have might drive you nuts for a while though.
