"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.

Are guys posting pics here to get advice on theur looks or just to show off how in shape they are lol?

Gaining weight doesn't do any good if you don't work out. It will go to fat. In my case the fat goes straight to my gut.
Burn a few calories by getting that machine together.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

How's it arriving? Turtle or carrier pigeon? I never seen exercise equipment take so long to arrive. Is it being pushed over here from China?
No, I have had the gym since Jan 6th. Remember, the pulley was broke? The installer noticed one of the pulleys was broke. He got some of it put together. I contacted ICON fitness and the part was on back order for weeks. Yes, a plastic pulley. So last week I finally got the part in. If that part was not broke I would have been lifting for a month now and getting some muscle. So I got delayed a month and a half. As you can see my chest is pretty flat. I just at least want some arm muscle so I look fuller and not as skinny but still have the slim chest until I get the abs built up.

I'm also getting an exercise bike too. So I will have a treadmill, home gym, and a stationary bike and dumb bells. I should have what I need to get into a lot better shape.

Also when I do get some muscle should I post pics of it on match even though girls in their profiles say they don't like gym pics.

How would you get fat when you run 5 miles a day? This is the second time you've said something that doesn't add up to the stories you tell us.... I'm on to you
 

"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.

Like I said if you lived in my region and 60 or over you'd clean up down here. It's like the opposite age wise living in nyc or la for dating. But most girls decent ones at a min 45 miles away. That just wont work for a relationship and wont go anywhere. Why would a woman even reply to you if you're 60 miles away anyway. I'm up to 70 mile radius because 60 miles or less and I see the same handful of faces everyday.
How many people live in your town?

I've heard of Weider, NordicTrack, Peloton, Marcy and Gold's. I've never heard of ICON Fitness. Why do you buy crap? All you need is steel. Nothing fancy. STEEL.

If you went to the pen for a bad crime, you would be in the yard exercising. You know what they use? STEEL and they come out jacked as f uck. Stop with all the BS and get to work. If you focused on exercise and nutrition as much as you focus on posting on SS, you'd be jacked like Rich Pena now (when he was alive, though, he's still prob. jacked as f uck right now underground).

ICON owns the Golds Gym brand and name. Look it up and provides the service. So you mean if I quit going on OLD 3 hours a day and looking a the same post wall handfull of women everyday and worked out hardcore I'd be ripped? Yes, go on Match, etc. and for like the last year you see the same handful of post wall women. Even Bumble and Tinder the same chicks keep popping up. It's boring logging on OLD and not seeing new or younger blood.

What do you think of the Ghetto Workout? These Tyrones use mostly play ground equip, trash cans, etc. to get buff. What do you think of it?

 

"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.

I can't believe he's had some of you fooled for so long

My favourite part of the troll is he "hides" his face by only coloring in his eyeballs

9/10
It was a similar case with guys like bigdave and richardthefrog. It doesn't matter if these guys are trolls or completely helpless/autistic. They're the ones who seem to have the most problems but are too good to change anything, the ones who hijack the threads, and the ones who always NEED the attention but never give back. Yet, many of the guys that keep giving them advice have too good of a heart to just put their foot down and realize "yeah some people truly don't want help". Actions over words right? That should be viewed in general, for everyone, not just for women.

I hate to say this about someone... but.... he’s an idiot.
He's not an idiot, he's autistic / Aspergers. It's one of the reasons some of us try to help him. Though, I think most of us are tired of the runaround.

Still its a waste of time imo, it was same with Bigdave.

He is like the Male equivalent of a AW

He was arguing his strategy which he refused to adjust.

Since we've seen pics of Big Dave and Big Goal, we know they are not the same person. Big Dave was just a narcisist, BigGoal isn't one. Though, he does think he deserves a high caliber lady, when he himself isn't a high caliber dude yet.
 

“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.
