"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.

A thread was recently locked because it wasn't girl related.
Meanwhile, we have a forum for "Anything Else" ("Sports, the weather, What's Happening In The News... or Anything Else. Talk about it here.")

... and discussing in the "Anything Else" forum ... "What's happening in the news" or "Anything Else" is getting locked because it's not "girl related."

Perhaps I'm a little slow today, because the justification for closing a non girl-related posting in the "anything else" section seems confusing to me.

Although "bickering" may not seem too appealing or nice, it's human nature. I'm just not the "sitting around the campfire singing kumbaya" type of man. Are most men?

A mod (whom I respect) stated that they'd rather the members just put those they don't like on "ignore" ... rather than ban certain members for following others around whom they don't like. I can respect that.

Since following members around for negative intent is frowned upon (and ban worthy) , I'm wondering if a blind eye is given to mods that exhibit such behavior?

"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 simply stated what the primary focus is of the forum. If you want to share interesting books you've read, songs you like, or how much you like fishing, sure that belongs in "Anything Else". None of that really belongs on sosuave and doesn't hold any relevance to the main purpose of the forum, but we need a place to put stuff like that. But the name of the site isn't "anythingelse.com". If it were, we'd be letting in all of the bots and spam that currently gets deleted.

Fair enough (as I've previously stated, this isn't my forum and I do not pay to participate).

When there's time, I'd like to respectfully suggest that perhaps the "Anything Else" descriptive be revised from " "Sports, the weather, What's Happening In The News... or Anything Else. Talk about it here." to something more aligned to the your suiting.

Thanks for the response.
