"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.

So i was recently scanning facebook and this kids post really, really, really got to me. Now me and this dude have been buds for a while and i felt bad for this chump.

The post: When Beautiful Girls Complain About Being Single And Im Just Invisible I Guess </3 Forever Alone Status! /_\

Random Chump: Right?

Him: Im Mean Like I Would Looooove To Be The Guy That Treats You Like A Queen Haha (this dude never shuts up about treating girls like Queens.)

Random Chump: #word

Me: Your glowing of desperation son, that shvt ain't cute.

Him: Uh It Would Be Desperate If I Asked Every Girl I Met Out. Not For Saying This. Now Get Off My Status If Youre Gunna Hate. Cause Nobody Likes Haters...

Me: No dude your basically crying for ****ing attention. Leave the corny treat you like a princess crap at home.

him: I Dont See Any Tears. And Just Cause I Treat Girls How They Deserve Doesnt Make Me Thirsty Or Corny Or Whatever Im Just A Gentleman (this made me lol)

Me: I got a question I want you to answer honestly. What makes a woman more special than anyone else for them to deserve some special treatment? Is it the fact they have a vagina? is it because hollywood tells us so? Elaborate please.

Him: (no reply)

Hopefully something sparked in him but its just things like this that tell you the wussification of men is still going strong. Just something I wanted to share with you guys. :)
 

"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.

What Really Makes Me Lol Is When People Type Like This. Haha but seriously, I see things like this all the time too. What can you expect, though.

What would be even more epic would be the responses from any hot chicks who may be on his friends list with responses to his topic like: "Awww. We know you'll treat any lucky girl like a princess! Don't worry sweetie! You'll find someone who likes you just for you someday! xoxo <3

Some dudes need to learn the pain filled reality way.

Stingers, no cross-posting between sub-forums. I deleted the duplicate in "Tips".

"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.

I learnt the hard way, in a way, many of us here did.
We cannot however, sadly, open the eyes of fools. They must hit the ground before they realise they could be in the sky.
Also, that queen nonsense is damn annoying. But I know when some gal comes with me, she's gonna have a damn fun time ;)
