"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.

One of the best posts I ever read from a MOD, Thanks for that. :) I'm a mod at another forum and it's hard too. Well gluck hope you continue to be a great mod.

Why don't you take all the applicants and have a vote?
There is no vote in the open forum. So you guys can sit here and nominate each other and it really won't matter.

Besides, what Gio said is untrue...

Drinks are half off from 12 pm - 12 am, Sunday - Saturday.
 

"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.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

Not that I give much of a sh!t who mods here but hell I got to say it.

Francisco... are you fukkin kidding me? I know you drones want to keep the "stale loser" vibe around here to fit snuggly with 99% of the content but sheesh, I smell more game coming from that fat star wars kid. What a joke.
The guys grasp of social awareness associated with the "getting it" of chicks is basically redundant.

Who the hell does the screening for this, the only mods here I've seen with the slightest hint of knowing what theyre talking about is Desdinova and Rollo Tomassi and to a lesser extent your Diablos (on the occasions he inputs), and what the fvck happened to Prosemont?

Heres a thought, try finding someone who understands the core dynamics of cvnt perhaps?


P.S did wyldliar get banned? lol what was the hold up? Allen bangin her or something? You do realise THIS place was her only means of topping up her self esteem, she'll be fvcked now (seriously), teenage boys questing for the right path of self improvement are as rare as hens teeth. R.I.P ya jaded penis envying sea wench.

Comeon Titman, can I see one happy post from you?! I'll give you a cookie if you do!!!!
I dunno, I kind of like the existence of a frightening, gaping, sucking black hole of negativity on this board. It balances out the liars and Internet alpha males.

That was kind of an unfounded attack on Francisco though, he seems to have his head on straight.

What I would like to know is, given that the opportunity is by application and not invitation, why any applicant would even be considered Mod material to begin with. I would assume that anyone who is mature, visits the forum daily, has been doing so for at least 3 months and would be interested in such a thankless job would surely have a decisive list of people they would love to ban, people they would love to expose and grand ideas on how to make this website a much better place in their own minds: all qualities that I'm sure are least desired in a new moderator.

If it's not open to public vote, why bother making it public at all? After all, if you're a moderator, you're mature and have been visiting daily, you should have a pretty clear indication of who's who and who knows their stuff. Why bother sifting through applications from moody people hungry for unweilding power? If the man behind the curtain ultimately decides, why shouldn't the man behind the curtain hand select the man or men he wants? If there were ever a place EOE shouldn't apply, it's here. But that's just my humble opinion.
Actually, there IS a screening process. Not everyone that applies gets a shot.
 

"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.

?You're right! That's what it feels like when he posts, just this creepy dark energy emitting from the topic that says 'uh oh'.

:D, and then I post and it's...what?!

I just want to point out something and this isn't specific to ( . )( . ). No matter who you are, once you start living your life on your terms and it shows, there will be people who will snipe at you; it's a fact of life.

Think about it, when was the last time that you shared some really good news about your life with a group of people and everyone was genuinely happy for you. How many times did you just get accolades without anyone deflecting the good times or trying to burst your bubble? It's a rarity.

It's very cliche but "misery does love company." It's much harder to elevate yourself to the levels of others. It's easier to try to pull others down. That in itself is neither good nor bad, it's just the way that it is. The thing that could be considered bad is if you allow them to do it to you.
 

"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.

Ewww who would want to proctor this kindergarden?...no offence to the current mods, i appreciate your efforts, but seriously I think there's a certain degree of mental conditioning to fit the bill for moderating such an enviroment.

For whoever DOES get the mod positions, I'd like to offer the following guide:

(1) You suck. No matter what you do. Get used to it.

(2) Did you know that this forum gets flooded by neo-Nazi groups, KKK, ultra-feminist groups, people who want to offer everybody free iPods and Playstations, and bored 12-year-olds who think posting threads titled "I HAVE SEX WITH YUR MOMS BUTT" is the pinnacle of humor? You didn't know that? Thank a mod.

(3) It makes people angry if you are not making sure that every thread is in its proper forum. They will say, "WTF, mods? Why is this in the Tips Forum? It belongs in Anything Else! Worst mods EVAR!" Then they will cry and proceed to cut themselves.

(4) It makes people angry if you move threads to another forum. They will say, "WTF, mods? Why did you move my thread from Tips to Anything Else? Worst mods EVAR!" Then they will cry and proceed to cut themselves.

(5) Did I already say that you suck no matter what you do?

(6) Drinks in the Moderator's Corner are 1/2 off between 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM on weeknights.

(7) Everything you say will be looked at with new scrutiny. Because you agreed to move threads to the correct forum and close or delete inappropriate threads, you are now considered a role model for some of the most f*cked up adolescent-aged and adolescent-minded posters to be found on any forum on the Internet (except the forums where they talk about having sex with cartoon animals). Now you can't say anything remotely controversial without someone saying, "You're setting a horrible example!"

(8) This site, by its very nature, is composed of many people who have -- how do I put this gently? -- social/personality issues. In their real lives, they often do not feel like "alpha males", so they decide to become an "alpha male" on an internet dating forum. So they take on the nearest "authority figure", which ends up being a mod. Now, yeah, they're just like mosquitoes... annoying, but easy to squash. Still, who likes being surrounded by mosquitoes all the time?

(9) Have I mentioned that you suck no matter what you do?

OR you could put on your skull cap that gives you 6+ charm..... ;)

"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.
