"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.

Don't credit "game" for YOUR success.

Credit YOURSELVES.

Whether you succeed or "fail" you are learning and building character. Success or "failure" happens to every human being man or woman that has ever been.

The credit belongs to each one of you. Not "game". Anyone could give you advice on what to do in a situation though that situation is your own. You may succeed or "fail" but that success or learning through "failure" was your own unique personal experience. What worked or "failed" for one person may be a completely opposite or different result if the person who gave you advice was in your shoes. But they aren't in your specific situation.

The credit in succeeding in "passing" or learning from your mistakes belongs to you and no one else "game" included.

"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.

I think the way your interpreting game is off. The idea behind game is a blueprint for dealing and acting in certain situations. If you don't have inner game of course your going to be experiencing failures. It isn't a one size fits all or a manual you read and apply the same to every woman. Insanity is repeating the same mistakes over and over and game is a way to prepare your self for psychological warfare in male/female relationships or even just sport fvcking.

Game is a very artificial way of relating to women. It is the guys who have not been good with women, for whatever reason, who need it... in the way a toddler needs a set of training wheels in order to learn to ride. Once a set of skills are learnt, you should pretty much be able to throw away the training wheels/ game, go into unthinking/ auto mode, and just relate naturally to women.

Ongoing interactions with members of the opposite sex should NOT be thought akin to the Art of War. A women should not be an all important state to conquer... but a person you will relate to in any manner of way depending on who much you are attracted to her, and the way in which she relates to you. Any preconceived notions may seriously hamper you.

"Game" is an illusion. It only seems to "work" if the specific chick likes you already for reasons you may not even realize. "Game" is pretty much the equivalent of snake oil salesmen trying to sell those desperate to be noticed by chicks this magic fleet of hologram Bugatti's which always starts and runs well for them they just need to believe it's there, and work on it relentlessly everyday. So you "purchase" your own magic hologram Bugatti that's supposed to always start, always run perfect, and be cool enough to get you any chick. Instead you wind up with crap results, are spending more and more of your time working under the hood of your new hologram Bugatti every hour, need to purchase new parts consistently, it doesn't start even 10% of the time if that, and your friends are wondering why you've lost your mind when all they see you really working on is a burnt to a crisp piece of scrap metal.

Stop crediting "game" for YOUR success. One man's success could be another mans "failure" in the same situation. Give yourselves credit. The chick(s) who like YOU specifically do whether you realize it or not.

So to you this "game" manual is a psychological warfare bible that is continuing to add pages by the second to prepare you for every woman on the face of the earth. And you place your right hand on it and just believe in this religious bible more than you believe in you.

I mean after all it CAN'T be the specific chick likes the specific dude including every poster who's ever posted on SS. Let's give all credit to "game" and never ourselves because there's no friggin WAY a woman or women could actually like us specifically if it wasn't for the almighty religion of "game".

C'mon bro. Give yourself some credit and not just some belief system.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

This is what I'm talking about. I half agree with the other poster. Game is knowledge from experience and also some understanding of psychology. It all comes together when it's just instinctual. We have all done things in relationships that we have regretted and learned from, so that the next time you might want to say or do the same thing but you now know that was a bad idea. That's game. This also applies to body language and how you present yourself or hold yourself. This in a sense is also game. I think this word game is meaning different things to different people. It is like you said just being yourself but at the same time you are also evolving and modifying your behavior.

The most important part of game . BELIEVING IN YOURSELF. instead of looking outside of yourself for salvation.

Problem is "game" tells dudes to just "believe" in it and it's always their "fault" if things don't work out as if chicks are infallible. They must continually invest in more and more never-ending "game" to pander to women who aren't perfect themselves.
