"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I had an interesting post about reading the Holy Bible. It was only informational. It was only there for folks who were interested in finding an easier Bible to read. It wasn't even controversial.

It would be nice to at least be warned or told why your post was deleted.

So, was there a reason at all?


This is the "Anything Else" forum.

That means ANYTHING else.
 

"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.

The post wasn't in any way trying to do any soul winning or anything like that. I'm not even a devout Christian. I have taken some interest in the Bible, but I find it hard to understand until I read "The Message". That's all it was.

No controversy.

Oh well.

One of the rules of the site is that there is no religious or political talk.
Point me to those rules. I'd like to read them.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

It was in the rules that you clicked that you agreed to abide to when you signed up for the site.

(ps I just double checked and only the political reference is in there but its been a widely known rule that religion is not an acceptable topic for the exact same reason)

Hey join the deleted posts club! I wasn't even remotely-controversial when the kings of the DJ food-chain decided to swoop down on mine! FORREST GRIFFIN IS FREEDOM, may the underdogs always have their day.

Reading a book doesn't constitute it's a religious thread. It's a book that's sometimes difficult to understand, and it was only to inform those who are interested in reading that book.

So, being DJ is about being PC? That's ignorant.

Yeah, but no matter how innocent it starts, something eventually gets said that gets everybody up in arms and then it turns into a big flaming holy war.

if the thread has any kind of religious name, or just has "religion" in the title...

people will come in and start bashing religion instantly, mainly christianity.

i don't see why you can't have a religious thread. people who are prone to bashing irrelevantly can just simply not click the thread. some people just want an religious person's point of view tied in with the topic of this site, not a random person coming in and trying to disprove the religion out of the blue... but adding a hint of relevancy so they don't get called out on it.

it's totally not suave to be religious i guess.
 

"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.
