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.
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.
Besides that...Alle_Gory said:Yeah... not a good idea.
It would just be far too easy for the kids & newbies to post their unfounded opinions. And other kids & newbies could make financial decisions based on such opinions.
This can lead to financial ruin.
I was under the impression sosuave was about bettering your life and women fall into that category. Living the Don Jaun Life style.SoSuave was orginally created solely for the purpose of helping teach both younger & older men how to get better with women -------> nothing else!
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
It's just as easy for the same folks to post unfounded opinions at other forums. Successful people aren't spoonfed information and they don't rely on others to hold their hands; they're independent, critical thinkers. BS is easy to spot when you're careful.Alle_Gory said:It would just be far too easy for the kids & newbies to post their unfounded opinions.

I hate to pull the join-date card on you, but that's only true of the website. Regardless, DJs move beyond their origins.

I'm one of the subject-matter experts at LinkedIn Answers. I'm sure there are folks here with questions about business, even questions about business education, that they might want answered without either exposing themselves to potential employers or having to go somewhere else.DarkShade said:Why not post on a board that is full of experts?

Exactly. Except with women, its almost impossible to blow all your money in one sitting.Listen Bro, many people on this site don't even know what they're talking about when it comes to women!
And then you expect them to give you sound financial advice???
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.
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.
