"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Facebook addiction benefits of NOT having.. Help!

"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.

I deleted my Facebook account around 2010. Of course I'm one of those old fashioned guys too (I've only seen one other guy on here similar to me) in that I don't have a cell phone either.

If people want to get in touch with me, they can call me at home or email me. I don't like posting sh!t to Facebook that'll be stored forever on their servers. I caught myself around late 2009 checking into Facebook every day just to see what's been updated...usually nothing. But the fact that it had ingrained itself so much into my daily routine that it took such priority over everything else, f*ck that. It didn't yield anything of any value in my life.

Now if I were single again maybe I'd put one up and I can see some value in it. But is a Facebook page really going to seal the deal for you with some new HB? If so, why? Why aren't you sealing that deal yourself, in person?

I killed mine about a month ago and haven't missed it. It was becoming a distraction especially at work. I have had the same cell phone number sense 1995. Anyone who I really give a swawk about has the number.

< 2nd guy here. I used it for some time, it becomes quite addictive and indeed doesnt add any value. I recently got banned for some reason, no interest in making another account. Just like in your case, all the people i need in my life get in touch with me thru phone/skype.
I use twitter though, pretty useful news wise
 

"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've never had one. Seems like it could be used as a tool to explore options though.

I know there are downsides. For instance, most employers consider your Facebook as their business these days.

I deleted my facebook a few months ago when I realized 90% of the content there was people getting married, having kids, or taking pictures of their food.

late last year.

Don't miss it at all.

Tired of the daily narcissism.

Just don't need it.

yes

Read this thread with interest, I'm trying to become more 'suave', and a lot of it is being a real man. Part of which involves not sitting on facebook all day. Thank you. I love this forum!:yes:

I deleted my account a couple of months ago and have not missed it. Like others pointed out, it was a distraction and occupied too much of my time. I feel a lot better without it.
 

"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.

Every single female in her 20's & 30's (my age range of women I fuk) have the following:

FACEBOOK - Instagram - Snapchat - (Some sort of dating app Tinder etc.)

I have never met a woman that I fuked that did not have social apps THEY CAN NOT LIVE WITH OUT that sh!t.

These social apps are such a good way to find out about a broad.

Recent Example

I met a girl in a bar, get her full name. She seems sweet and innocent then I find her FB & Instagram (which are set to public not private) and literally every photo of her is half naked slooter pics.

I then knew to play the aggressive game and ended up banging her.

Keep your facebook, if anything just change the privacy and erase/block the people you don't want to see.

My Facebook is 100% pure crap lol. All I have is memes, stupid shıt and I use it to follow interesting groups. I don't use my last name, no family pics, work pics, personal pics, or anything of value. And I don't Like pics no matter how cute their titays look in their new shirt. It's a joke. People need to stop posting their entire lives on it. I deny snooping girls from pre-judging me from the get-go. If they don't like it, NEEEEEEEXT. I'd never add a girl I'm trying to bang on it.
