"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.

You only had 3 pics?? What about angle shots of your face, smile, etc? Some women have 20 pics. I think about 6 pics is good. Mainly so they can tell you're not a lardball.

Just like with women if there are no pics of their teeth or torso I won't message them. Figure teeth are bad or they're hiding their fat or are covered in tats and don't want you to notice it.

If if their face looks hot and only one pic and not smiling or at least shows their body I won't reply.

A great example is a chick on Match 30 miles away who looks HB7.5 and cute in the face. However she hides her body. At first she said in her "what I'm bad at" and she said at walking. I didn't think much of it at first and figured she was meaning she was a klutz maybe so I wrote her. Then a few days later I looked at her profile again and she changed it and said she's in a wheel chair but hid all hints of it. Even propped herself up.

So if no body shot it's a no go for me to write them.
Less = more. You need to be mysterious and let them find out about you. They like to be detectives (hopefully better than MrWood), and learn about a dude on their own. I am going to guess you do the opposite and have diarrhea of the mouth (or fingers) with you telling them your life story.

The picks have my full body dude.

@Atom Smasher @Amante Silvestre @logicallefty @Infern0 - Dudes, we should do a SoSuave bootcamp. Just a thought.
 

"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.

But for your main pic you need your face close up and looking your best to make a good first impression so they click your profile. Why do you think chicks use their best possible pic for the main pic.

I use me with a suit and tie that was taken at a party. I look like the sh it (mostly because I am). My friend, you need a whole work over. It would take hours, if not days to fix your style, your exercise and dietary routine, the way you reach out to these ladies.. Basically, your whole persona.

I hope you do not tell these ladies you live with your mom. You should peruse the AirBNB's in the nice areas of where you are searching, update your zip to that area, and AirBNB a home in the really nice part of town. Then, you ask them for a night cap, and you f uck them there. What is so hard here?

My zip code average age is over 60 lol. Is that appealing?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

Not too sure a sane dude would put a pic with his children on a dating app. Ladies do, but, well, they're not all there..
Im sure ladies that show their kids aren't putting no man on a pedastal. They want to scare you off if it's not cool. Think about that. Parents don't think the single thing and the game is the defining measure if a person.

You would be amazed how many ladies I saw on Bumble with them and pics of their kids. It's pretty common in the NYC area.
 

"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.

As a french canadian i had to google the term
And now im like wtf!!!!!
Is there such an association was the founding member Michael Jackson or something????
Sick stuff
Yea, I did too. I didn't think that was still around. I remember hearing about it years ago. Heck, one can even apply to become a member online. Think BG would apply if we posted the link? With that teddy bear pic, he'd be a shoe in for acceptance.

Last time I was on Bumble (1-2 years ago), all the women in my area were HB8/9, white, and all 5'9-6'0. At first I thought the algorithm was trolling me. I'm not talking about 1 or 2, I'm talking about nonstop 20-30 of these. None with kids though. I was also in NY btw.

Definitely. The easiest are the ones who straight up on 1st message say something like "you probably hear this all the time but...nice abs." And then it just becomes a game of just making sure you don't biggoal it out the window.

Why when I go on Tinder or Bumble they're overweight a lot of times or located 35 or more miles away? Been a week since I saw anything over HB6 within 20 miles of me on those apps.

You need pro photos and stylish... without that the results aren't good. I've myself made a test about it... Big big difference.

Or you can be really lucky to find a newbie woman on there, talk and schedule a quickly date. Otherwise she will be bombed with tons of options for her.

I'm tired of OLD sites and how I have to drive 30 or more miles just to meet anyone.

Never done old

But i know getting a good shot can be very hard.
Im sure it can help greatly, but imo 1 or 2 prof shot is good, but other pic need to look non-proffesional.
