"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.

One of my friends is telling me good things about it. Basically its similar to Tinder, only it is set up so that women have to make the first move. Guys cannot contact women first.

All you have to do is swipe and wait for girls to message you once you match. Profiles are short. It is more for hook-ups than LTR's but some people end up dating.

Has anyone had luck with it?
 

"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.

Bumble is Tinder with a better group of women.

I'd say that more women on Bumble are looking for dating vs hooking up. Tinder is still the hook up app.

I just made an account today. The women on Bumble are much hotter on average than Tinder. In fact, it seems to be around 80% hot girls (7-10) and 5% fatties. The other 15% is in the average range.

I'm pretty impressed so far. But I wonder why so many ugly and fat women are avoiding this app.

I installed it, then realised OLD is worthless to me, like looking at garbage. Porn is a tiny bit better.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I think its just second nature for an ugly woman who just wants fvcked to go to Tinder. They gravitate to it.

I get messages from women on Bumble that live 2 hours away and say "you're handsome enough to make the drive". I spare them the time unless they are super hot.

I actually like that they have to message me first. It cuts the lower to mid low interest ones out right away.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Fake profiles - the best I've ever seen, but still fake.

Do a bit of googling, should find some reddit threads on the subject.

Seems interesting. I downloaded it only for validation . To be honest though , i don't want the people in my area to see me into old.

Aaaand, they're almost certainly shilling in Reddit and other online forums (hint, hint).

I've had far more success on Bumble than I have on Tinder. Not sure why, I've always had both at the same time, used the same pics, had the same swiping habits. I'm sure it has to do with the algorithms they use. There are lots of fake/inactive profiles on Bumble. Bumble definitely has less trash than Tinder. Bumble has some sort of "points" program that tries to match the highest scoring females with the highest scoring males. Its based on popularity, how many times you swipe right, and if you respond to those you have been matched with.

Tinder is more equivalent to POF as Bumble is more like Match. Still no shortage of girls seeking validation.

Here's a link to the story about the creator of Bumble:

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I tried downloading this app and it looked like one big ad. No interface at all. Am I missing something ?

There are some downright gorgeous women on there, which leads me to think there are many fake profiles. I have matched a couple, but mostly 6-7s. Average looks for the loss... at some point, I need to find some night time activities that will get me out more. I have been a bit unmotivated as of late

I would say stick to Tinder or Happn... I've read a couple profiles on Tinder where women say "Bumble was too much work" at the end of the day we need to remember women like to be guided not leading. Eventually once the novelty of being "an independent women" wears off, they will come to despise putting in all the work.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
