"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The article is paywalled, but I've inserted a short excerpt below

"In an essay published by Allure magazine last year, Ms. Kryst reflected on the challenges of growing older and challenging conventional thinking about women’s appearances and opinions. “A grinning, crinkly-eyed glance at my achievements thus far makes me giddy about laying the groundwork for more, but turning 30 feels like a cold reminder that I’m running out of time to matter in society’s eyes — and it’s infuriating,” she wrote. “After a year like 2020, you would think we’d learned that growing old is a treasure and maturity is a gift not everyone gets to enjoy.” "
It is believed that she died by suicide by falling from a high rise building in her Manhattan apartment.

What a way to go, was the pressure too much for her?
 

"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.

You never know who is going to pop themselves. They can appear to be fine, happy, and suddenly they're found dead. This happens all the time.

Sad, another lost soul. RIP
Now I’m just waiting on the woke crowd to exploit it

Sad, that she choose to die rather than accepts the burden of epiphany phase.

Do you mean because she was a black? She was major-league accomplished and gorgeous. Who gets blamed for that?

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

There's something sad about having your obituary behind a paywall.

I feel more sorry for the 50 year old incels. She had plenty of chances to find Mr. Good enough, but she kept saying "hit me" until she felt like she busted.
I don't think it's entirely her fault, that's just women's nature. If she were born 50 or so years ago, she would have settled for some moderately successful chump. The internet has screwed up her perception of reality, the same way it hooks teenage boys to pornography. Women aren't really capable of seeing the effects of social media like guys do with pornography. We know it isn't real, and it isn't healthy. They don't. They ride the wave until they crash upon the stony shore. Their Paleolithic brains have never experienced such abundance, they aren't capable of choosing. It's like processed sugar, or chemical narcotics.

It takes some conojes to drop to your death. I bet the fall down gives you a high not unlike cocaine or some other similar drug before the splatter.

The detective in me also says it could have been a murder. Who knows.
 

"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.

How do you know it was the internet the screwed her perception of reality? She could have been:

- depressed
- never had a boyfriend
- never got famous
- never got into Harvard
- never been able to get pregnant
- never passed the math test

Not every girl rides the wave on the internet.

First thing I thought also. Jumping from 60 stories up. And the aftermath below? Hard to fathom her doing that
Instead of sleeping pills.

Prob. drugs and reading too much on Insta, Fakebook and Twitter. People often forget the life they portray online is not necessarily their real life behind the scenes. What a waste.. Hot and smart.. geez. If she could also cook and clean she'd be a home run.

I wish I could understand but an average joe like would never be able to. Someone who is 30, who has more than I do, and could have everything chose a permanent solution.

I grew up in a time where all my 16 year old classmates were hooking up with guys on tinder, or were addicted to instagram.

Need to setup a purpose for yourself in life. A person cannot seek another person out to provide happiness and purpose. The only person who can do that is the dude in the mirror.

Sad story. Gorgeous woman. I have a family member involved in those pageants. She’s beautiful, accomplished, and…. Perpetually single.

Someone has to guide these modern women away from thinking they can have it all.
