"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.

Hella immature question, but how many of you tell your parents you were with a girl if they ask you "what'd u do today? who'd u see?"
 

"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.

No. I don't like it when my parents know about stuff like that. They act immature about it and treat me like i don't know anything about stuff like that.

But it really just depends on the kind of relationship you have with them. My relationship with them sucks, so that's why i'm like that.

I have no problem telling them. My parents and I are very open with stuff like that (They did sex-ed when I was 8), so I dont have any problem saying I was on a date.

I'd tell them if they asked. Otherwise it doesn't seem too important to me.
 

"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.

Yep same here... They tease me as though I am 4... "Ooh lover boy hahaha." Lol, they just generally try to embarass me :p... However I just CAN'T not say anything when they start giving me AFC advice... "When you are older and start liking girls (haha at that) you will need money to buy drinks for them, and if you want to take them to a nice restaurant. Women love a nice guy :)"

Thing is, people like your mum really DO want a nice guy, because they want long term relationship material.

I actually have used this before!! And anytime my mom starts asking a bunch of questions as to where im going who i'm going with how long im gonna be gone I just tell her I'm going to get laid and she shuts up. I usually tell where I'm going but when it continues on and on I drop that bomb.

Like just a few minutes ago she was giving me a lecture on not keeping the car spotless and I responded with saying there was semen on the back seat. She shut up...

It really depends on your personal relationship with your parents. I don't have a few strong relationship with mine even though my mother insists on knowing everything I do so I just use sarcasism and the golden "idk" response. Also your parents will probably start to ask questions if you mention a new girl every week.

Yeah, i hate it when they try to give advice. Whenever they do, i always pull out the "We're 2 different generations and your advice won't work like it did back then" card.
 

“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.

I do have a strong relationship amazingly, but it's just not something I would tell them.

idk is not golden! Haha. It works for a bit but eventually they want some sorta answer. Thanks for the sarcasm one. I forgot about that. If I sleep over someone's house and my parents keep talking about it, I'll usually end up saying "yeah wild co-ed party sleepover with naked people." Sarcasm actually saves you. Once they catch on, it's golden. "Yeah I'm sooo high." "We had lots of naked girls over at his house." Then when you realize it works, then just do it when it's true! Thanks for reminding me.

I guess I'll just keep playing it by ear. Good posts here so far haha.

if its a very close relationship, then yes, its okay to tell BUT if u dont have a very understanding and close relationship, then dont even mention it bcoz im sure u dont wana mess things up
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

As everyone above said it all depends on the kind of people your rents are like and the kind of relationship you have with them.

I personally have a great relationship with my rents. When I was on holiday with my mum and her boyfriend she would point out girls around the resort and she'd say stuff like "You pulled her yet?" was great fun. She's also walked in on me gettin head from a chick before and all she said was "Finish up quick, dinner's nearly ready". So I'm completely fine with letting my parents know what I've been up to with my love life.

Depends on your parents and how comfortable you are with telling them.
I know some parents will act totally comfortable with everything, however once their grades go down or the moment they stop doing chores around the house, etc; their parents will use his girlfriend as blackmail.
"Ever since you got that girlfriend your grades have dropped significantly."
OR:
"Ever since you got that girlfriend, you have stopped doing chores around the house."

Analyze your parents and find out what kind of people they are. There is nothing wrong with telling them if you feel it is right to do so.

my mom and dad always used to tease me about girls when they picked me up from school if i was ever speaking to a girl when i was about 7-9 so theyv kinda ruined any hope of getting a wedding invitation off me :p haha..

my mom was really immature when she found out my older brother had a gf, and she would always tell family members as soon as she seen them. She heard me speaking on the phone to a girl once and i overheard her telling her friend the next day. silly really

My mom doesn't even bother asking because she knows that I fvcked her. Actually, she always tells me "Don't make me a grandma too soon".
 

"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.
