"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.

Anyone here using firefox for their browser? I tried hijacking a very important discussion that seems to have disappeared with a question on extensions. So using firefox who has found any extensions they wish they always had?

For those wondering what the hell firefox is:

"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 grabbed ieview a bit ago and have been very happy with it.

I have been messing around with stumbleupon since I spend most of my days in front of a computer recently and tonight came across this site:

I use firefox. It kicks the fvcking shyt out of internet explorer. :D

The adblock extension is a must-have. It lets you block in-site ads by blocking all images from the ad server, so any ads coming from that server will be rendered invisible. I have most ad servers on my block list by now, so i don't see many ads anymore. It's just like the internet used to be.


The bugmenot extension is good-- it lets you bypass compulsory registration, for news sites, etc.

Mouse Gestures

With my favorite being Mouse Gestures
 

"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'm not quite sure I love the mouse gestures yet. I've been messing around with it for a couple of hours and dont seem to get it yet. Then again by saturday I will probably be wondering how I managed to even log onto my computer last week. :D So far it seems that a lot of what I can do with mouse gestures i could have done before with the mouse wheel or simple keyboard combos. I do like how simple it is to open a new tab though.

Thanks for the suggestions.

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.

Be sure to install the Bookmarks Backup extension, as FF has a habit of losing your bookmarks during a hard crash.

I lost a years worth of bookmarks and didn't know this was an issue with FF until I went searching for a way to retrieve them.

Netscape has this "feature" as well.

Install that Extension now.

It also has mouse button gestures (not sure if you found them or not).

They are: middle click + left/right button. Switch to coresponding tab

Right click +left/left+right
backwards/forwards
