"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.

Could we have a forum for Field Reports?

Threads in the DJ Discussion forum are pushed away from the front page into obscurity in as little as twelve hours. Most of the threads created consist of just a few sentences of guesswork. Why then would people bother to make field reports in the same subforum, threads of substance from your own life which often take a long time to write?

Field reports are among the best possible reading material, especially for those who want to learn. In these you have theory put to practice. Those who write field reports are by definition experienced. These reports are unlike almost everything posted here, they are certainly valuable reading, and they should be encouraged.

I suggest therefore that we have a separate subforum for field reports. I know that I would be much more inclined to write about my own experiences if I knew that they would stay somewhere where people could read them. It seems natural to me that we would have a Field Report Subforum.

I hope this idea can be taken into consideration, and hopefully implemented. Surely SoSuave would be better for it.
 

"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.

we used to... but it wasn't getting used and wasting bandwidth and so it was taken off.

While we're at it, we should have a subforum for journals as well. They almost serve the same purpose as FRs, except they document growth, and can emphasize what went wrong a little better than FRs.

way back when ... a person would put their field report up and continue to add to it over time ... which is kinda the same thing as a journal. so it was all classified as field reports.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.
