"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

They screw up the page when they are too large. Look at a recent post by that Madskater212 guy to see what I mean. Can we not have those?

"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.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

I'm not sure what you meant, but if you interpreted "space" as "mouse scrolling space" (verticaly long texts in other words) rather than computer diskstorage, then you are wrong.
The reason for posts get deleted is the shortage of diskstorage, the new posts overwrites the old. Lorenzo's signature is about max 621 byte (621 characters). A PICTURE is different, for instance the simple "Post reply" icon, is 2014 byte large. That's over 3 times Lorenzo's sig. A normal picture at Hotornot is 90 000 byte in size...
That's why imo images should be disable.

i did interpret it that way, i didn't know the reason for posts getting deleted.

I've edited my last post for more accurate data...
Imagine newbees running a "post your hot babes here", could easily get over Megs, I've seen that happen in another forum, which eventually had to disable images.

THE ROAD NOT TAKEN by Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
 

"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.

i like ht pics, they add a nice touch, instead of killing htem off, make it so that we can borrow them from a different website, that way it will only have to load in the web page, and not actually be on the sosuave servers.

sota like "img src" with an "href"

There was a board of girl talked about here a few month ago where you saw one line answer with HUGE pics... Pages and pages for thread with almost nothing to read. Just the same cute pics again and again. It is just like talking to someone that would always begin his answer by: "my name is... and i work at.. and i like..." Pointless!

Reading on computer is not as much enjoyable as on paper so i am more favorable of simplicity for the sake of readability.

The same reason why i dont care much about the overall design of the site: It's functionnal and i like that.

Short sigs are fine, but if you want us to know who you are, just fill-in the identification card or start another "Get to know.." thread!
