Now that was raw like sushi...
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.

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
I guess you are agreeing with him that the good women date black men.Originally posted by Wyldfire
How is what he said any different then people telling him that the only white women who like black men are fat or dumb?
I see no difference at all.
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 black and I don't know black people like that. I have known some very racist black people and it always bothered me. I've known black people to be racist for valid reasons and I've known blacks who were racist for no reason at all.Originally posted by Smooth Player 056
Everywhere i go i see a black man complaining. I work at Mervyns a black man tells me this is on sale and I say it is not on sale. he yells "cant u give a nigga a discound".........They love to use being black as an excuse for everything. IN my ****ing school black guys are calling the teachers racist for getting bad grades.
My niece had a LTR with a black man. She is beautiful, perfect body, looks like a model, working on her masters degree, high paying white collar job, has been pursued by a pro and semi-pro athlete (NBA and semi-pro football)....both of whom she rejected. Never married, no kids, always a "good girl" growing up. Very feminine.Originally posted by Fatality
I guess you are agreeing with him that the good women date black men.![]()
I guess that makes you one of the bad women seeing as how you basically said you don't like black men![]()
Do you support trolls or are you the type that somehow thinks you are a good person for always fighting for the black man?
actually I don't have a problem with itOriginally posted by Wyldfire

The point I was making is that yes, there are plenty of good women who like black men. There are good women who don't, too.
Why do you have such a problem with white women dating or marrying black men? It's totally irrational to be bothered by that.
Who has a problem with it? But when idiots try to distort the facts, and use racial slurs in the process..fvcking eh right we're going to call bullshyt.Originally posted by Wyldfire

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.
i wouldnt mention it to the chick that saw the site. if she ever mentions it , tell her someone sent you a link and you went thinking it was porn. or whatever. just leave it at that.Originally posted by skeeloo
this whole fuking thread was ruined by guys i thought were mature enough, i appreciate all the guys that responded well. i dont think ill post any question here , 98 percent of guys here are kbj and are afcs and you can tell , theres no point ..
geez.
Erm, actually, she might see this thread with big fat letters saying "girl im with found this site" . Not to mention the many replies, making it even more visible.Originally posted by penkitten

if she comes back here and reads and replies, who cares?
she will never know if she is talking to you or not.
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.
Well skeeloo, look at it this way...if she does look at this thread all she's going to see is a bunch of dumbasses arguing over stupid sh*t. She'll think you're getting crap advice and that she can take advantage of you. She won't likely stick around or worry about what you're getting from this place and how it impacts your relationship with her. Having this happen can actually be a good thing for your situation. Or she could think you're a moron for associating with such a bunch of retards and dump you. Only time will tell...either way...you've likely learned to be more careful now...which is a good thing.Originally posted by skeeloo

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.
