"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.

What does this mean?

Searching the forums, I can't find any earlier discussions of this error message.

All I've been trying to do is post some more information relating to the law changes in NSW, Australia that RUG posted about. This seems innocuous enough.

Thanks.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I've never come across that. The only way to figure it out is to PM the post to a mod and we can try to figure out what's triggering it.

This is from another forum that uses vbulletin, just a guess on my part, but I think it has to do with you being a new member.

New users aren't allowed to post any URLs or images until they build a certain level of "trust" by being an active member of the community. This is to prevent spam and trolls posting pornographic or triggering material.

Yes,

I'm hardly new around here but I get your point, it must be the links.

Actually, I can't even reply to your complete post because it contains a link in it.

Thanks.

I'll have to brush up on the forum rules. I know there's a numerical limit to a new user's posts, but it looks like he's under that. @Morpheus, were there images or URLs involved?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Oh, you posted at same time as me. Must be a link limitation since you only show 8 posts.

Perhaps it would be helpful to know how many posts one needs before one has enough "trust".

I have a feeling it's 10, but I just put the question up in the mods corner and will get back to you with the info once I get it.

In fact you should reply to this, and then you will have 11. Try to post it again in the appropriate thread and see if it's allowed.
 

"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.

Under 25 posts, it's a 10 post limit per day and no links allowed. After 25 posts the system will release the restrictions.

Of course this is in place to minimize spam. We spend a lot of time dealing with spam manually, and this rule serves to keep the workload manageable.

Thanks for that.

I ended up posting it without the links. If I need to post links, I'll ask someone to do it for me until I get to the 25 post limit.
