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.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
That's not even a good reason as you might get them pregnant the more times you hit it or if they sense you have money they might try to poke a hole in the condom.LMFAO said:Pump and dump/friend with benefits (the benefit being fvcking her pvssy) fair enough, would never properly date them though.
A stupid comment to make. I know quite a few single mothers who work very had to support their kids. They aren't leeching of anybody. Sometimes things don't work out in relationships and people part ways. I myself, wouldn't date a single mom just for the reason of the kids being the biggest problem. Too much drama and hassle that goes along with it to enjoy dating. But a lot of people are dating single moms. When you think of it, most women over 30 are going to have kids. It's more than likely older men will date single mothers unless they manage to date younger women who have none.VikingKing said:Single mothers are leeches.on society
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Yes. If you are significantly older, and/or if she is one of the prettiest girls you ever dated. When they are a single mom, you get an automatic one point upgrade (proportional to their declining options), and they are also a lot more reliable because they can't be out all night every night. I've dated single moms and you can enjoy a short-term family life with group dinners and movies. Treat the kids like gold though because you are making a substantial impression on them, and for daughters around a certain age (7-13) especially, the way you treat their mom instills their primary sense of romance. Don't be the one to give them daddy issues. I must admit, I fear being the third dad when she has 3 kids.DemFeeelz said:Can anyone give me a reason they would ever date a single mom because I can't think of ONE.

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.
Are you serious?DemFeeelz said:Can anyone give me a reason they would ever date a single mom because I can't think of ONE.
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.
Pretty much. Avoid even seeing the kids. I've had a single mum inviting me to her house where the kids live for sex. I thought even that was a step too far so i just flat out rejected it. She was even more hot for me and said let's get an hotel room for one night and she said she'll book it. Then she says she wants me to sleep over with her, I told her I'm not sure I can. She said fine and she paid for the hotel and invited me for a 3 hour sex session.RangerMIke said:It can be tough dating single moms. The key is to not treat them any different then you would other women. Do not allow yourself to get sucked into the 'family' world. You are dating HER not her kids. Don't do "family dates", period.
I'll bite. My GF is a single mom, and I'll tell you why that works for me. First, know that I am 45 and she is 40. If you are 28 the world looks quite different I am sure.DemFeeelz said:Can anyone give me a reason they would ever date a single mom because I can't think of ONE.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
