"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.

Facebook got owned

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Noice!!

That's we what need more of... Some good old-fashioned ass whipping. Apparently this kid was making himself out to be some big, bad-ass gang banger on FB.

That boy (if he straightens out) is going to thank his lucky stars someday that he had an uncle like that.

A job for the father, don't you think? Where was his father? Everything seems educational, until I read the "uncle" part. Why is the uncle involved in this?

One would imagine it's because the father isn't there. And by uncle its probably the mom's brother. I mean, if one thought about it for two seconds that's probably the conclusion one would reach. :rolleyes:

*edit*

I got old school whippings like that when I was a kid from my dad, uncle, mom, grandma. Grandma was the worse. She would make you go and pick your own switch off of a tree and bring it back to her. They would have never tolerated that fake thug behavior. They grew up poor but were fair and honest and believed you should act accordingly.

My uncle was always telling me to buck up and be a man. He would fight me like man but pull his punches, taught me how to 'take a licking and keep on tickin' as he called it. They always told me it was a difference between being tough and acting tough. And that's what a lot of these kids these days don't understand. Acting tough is a bluff that is best called at home instead of in the street as this kid found out.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

If we had this in every family, I guarantee you our society would be awesome. Ain't nothing like a good ol ass whippin when you do something bad. This is why strong father figures are important. An uncle, is like your second dad. He has every right to beat his ass. Good job man. Great job. Some of you on here need an ass whippin like that when you come here and complain about girls who treat you like crap. But you sit there and take it. I wish I can belt some of you so called husbands who allow your wives to spit on you and cheat on you. I would belt you till you turn purple.
