"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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

She was after all a gun toting Republican.
She carried the revolver when she was moving escaping slaves between safe houses. She told every slave she rescued that if they turned around and tried to go back, she would shoot them in the back herself. She had to, because if anyone went back, they could give up all the safe house locations.

So?

What exactly does this do for black people?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Absolutely. This chick called me earlier saying she was so happy because of this.......

I honestly couldn't care less. I don't even spend cash like that. I swipe my card for almost everything.

What did Andrew Jackson do for white people?
Defy a Supreme Court ruling that forcibly removed the Cherokee, Semiole, and Choctaw from their ancestoral homes in the Southeastern United Stated.
 

"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.

Deserved for Tubman.

Jackson was no great man or president. And I don't just mean the trail of tears.

I'm all for a pro-gun Republican replacing a Democrat on the $20 bill.
Yup. Martin Luther king was also a republican. Andrew Jackson started the democratic party. The kkk were democrats also. The khlan started to oppose republican legislation that gave blacks rights.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

Can we please stop with the bull**** that Martin Luther King was a republican. There is no proof of this. He did not align with either political party

Its pathetic how some people are so desperate to align themselves with historical figures by use of bisaed partisan political points.

Even if he wasn't a registered republican, his values were certainly more right leaning. The premise of everything he fought for is based on freedom of people not government control or forced cultural brainwashing.

The left today is all about more government control to the point of infringing on individuals rights. Telling people what to think and what to tolerate is not freedom it's fascism.

I highly doubt MLK would support fascism. Not to say he'd support rhinos. Bush 2 wasn't a republican, him and obama are not fundamentally that different. Just saying MLK was right leaning.

His values? Dude, southern conservatives hated MLK in his day.

He was most certainly a man with progressive politics. Right leaning my ass. He certainly wasn't when compared to his contemporaries.
