"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.

In the club scenes, we tend to go against guys such as promoters and Djs. A lot of these guys are super low value but are perceived as "High value" because they know a lot of people which ironically does not amount to ****, because you can know a lot of people and still not be cool. So basically in relating this to highschool what is a good way to engage in this popularity contest and have women believe you to be the jock in this situation and them to be the nerd(lower value guy, not perceived as cool).

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

There is a highschool forum. Also, the idea should never be to make someone feel low value. If you want to feel high value, you actually have to be high value. In other words, work out, socialize and make a lot of friends, work hard, and be successful. I don't understand your club analogy.

maybe you shouldn't view people in highschool terms when you are an adult ?

The first step to having high social value is not caring about your social value.

....Works well for the homeless guy I just passed on my way to the club.
 

"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.

Give that homeless guy a $100 bill and see how quickly it turns into a pile of empty beer and whiskey bottles, worth only what the deposit value is.... Give someone who has their sh!t together the same $100 bill and see what happens.... Ya know?

Yeah, those drunks go downtown and literally walk over homeless guys as they loudmouth their way to and from the bars. They just don't get the hypocrisy when they later blast homeless as all a bunch of alcoholics or crazy ungrateful worthless nothings living off the sweat of others.

Gotta wonder how stupid someone would have to be to repeat the current mantra of "feed the homeless." How about "house the homeless?" No way! That might take some real effort. Besides, the givers of "charity" think they're better than those they give to. They never heard, and would never believe, "there but for the grace of God go I." So of course, the takers don't deserve meaningful assistance from any givers. Just token self-flattery.

Again, look who's doing the talking. Petty employers who, instead of using their investment money to do hiring and buy materials, put their funds into the high-tech stock bubble, then into the real estate bubble, laid off workers, drove up rents, made men homeless, and ruined the credit market so those homeless men couldn't defraud lenders like those loudmouth barhoppers did.

Dap, you're an idiot. Go soak your head.
