Sometimes the truth can be stranger than fiction.

"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.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

When a member disagrees and grows frustrated with the mods, or a specific mod, it's expected that they might make a comment or two to publicly voice their concern or opinion. There is nothing wrong with disagreeing with a moderator or the moderating team...
However, when an individual continually goes out of their way to take indirect shots at them on multiple occasions, even discreetly, they are demonstrating antagonistic behaviour. If a single member (in this case, a moderator) is repeatedly on the other end of this behaviour, this is called harassment. Harassment is against the forum rules.
Being subtle with your harassment does not make said harassment immune to the rules. This includes masquerading your harassment towards a particular moderator as a humour thread in good faith when you know it's not.
If you have an issue with someone in particular, PM them and work it out. If it’s with the moderators in general, add us all to a PM conversation, and let’s work it out.
