haha it's appreciated anyway, I'm just glad no fighting happened.Desert Fox said:damn I shoulda read the post before mine...fvck it. lol good luck
I'll keep the advice in mind.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

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.
Oh, you're cool.eaglez1177 said:wow this whole situation is just pathetic
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.
That kid is a p*ssythebestthing said:Just to let everyone know, the fight was roughly 7 hours ago. I showed up, his friends were a bunch of tight-pants, eyeliner wearing skater emo *****es, and when a friend of mine walked up they looked at eachother like they were scared, lmao.
So **** was getting underway, and we see this lady walking up to us. Turns out, it's the kids mom. She comes up, asks what the hell we're doing here, ask what the deal is. My sister's like 'This little kid won't leave my brother alone.'
And she's like 'OH, he's the one that molested that girl up there?'
It's like dead silent, and my friend stephen just busts out "Oh GOD, I wouldn't molest that thing."
Even the mom laughed, ended up backhanding her kid in front of us, then took him home.
Just wanted to throw the update out there for everyone that's been helping.
Here's what you do. Next time you see him, punch the f*cker in the face. Right out of the blue when he doesn't expect it. Kick his ass, don't take no sh*t. And stop being so scared of getting your ass kicked. Almost no one ever got seriously hurt in a high-school fight. An what if you receive a few punches, SO WHAT. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.No fighting, fortunately, which is what I wanted to avoid in the first place. I was only doing it to get the kid off my ass, but even then he's still texting me and calling me a *****.
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.
Original kid left me alone.Colerbear said:Yeah keep your chin tucked in hands up and whatever you do. DONT stop hitting him. And to give a punch you need to take a punch so if you cant take a couple punches dont even plan on going.
You could win the fight with this piece of advice alone.snowdog said:Yea, that's the way. Show that f*cker you're not scared.
If things are about to go haywire, be sure to be the first one to punch. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.
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.
Dude don't go starting some new **** now or you'll just end up in the same situation again. You gotta be the bigger man and just let this dramatic bull end already.thebestthing said:Original kid left me alone.
Kids brother is the one talking **** to me now. Him and his band are playing at a local venue this Friday. We're attending, just to start trouble.
It was yesterday, actually. I decided against attending. Everything's been quiet all day.Get-With-It said:Dude don't go starting some new **** now or you'll just end up in the same situation again. You gotta be the bigger man and just let this dramatic bull end already.
