"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Help! I'm paranoid and care way too much about what others are thinking about me!

so are u autistic? lol i love how people turn to blame diseases/disorders for their problems.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

Viper, could you do us a favor and only reply to the posts that you found helpful? Not the ones that you think are offensive....afterall, you shouldn't care what people on the internet say about you anyway...

Shut up beezy. Don't talk to your daddy like that.
 

"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.

OH WOW. I haven't been here in like, 3 months or something. And Viper's still here?
Maybe it hasn't been that long.
Umm, Viper...
Have you read Double your Dating by David D?
It's actually a really good book. You should invest some money, and purchase it.
Very useful information, like how to be cool, and enjoy life.
I benefitted from it a lot. You would too.

I've never freaked out over someone giving me advice, it's when people talk sh*t and critisize me about something they don't know anything about. Just like you are right now.
Now, that's a nice reply.
But still, I think criticising is good, as long as it is positive criticing. I know there has been bad criticising in here too, you're right about that. But I still recommend that you're more open too some critics that you might not like to hear.

As for the topic of this thread:

I used to care about what other people think of me too. With me it was only in certain situations. Mostly at school and/or in places where I didn't know people that well.
The way I think right now is:
-These are people that don't or barely know me, so they aren't even thinking about me. I mean do you think something about someone who you barely know all the time, when you're in a pretty busy place? No, off course not, so you can be pretty sure, they aren't either.
-Even if there where a few off all these people that did think bad things about me, would they be worth my time over all the other people who wouldn't?

I'm going to try and reframe you:

Answer the next questions to yourself



-What is it exactly about them that makes you think that they would be thinking bad of you?

-Are you saying, that, if I would join wrestling tomorrow (note: I have never wrestled before, and know absolutely nothing about it), and I would have a wrestling day with lots of people, then they would all think I'm a loser for being a beginner?

-How does the actual process go, from them not knowing you at all, to -> them thinking you're a loser for being a beginner?

-Has there been a time that you thought that people thought you were a loser, but when they didn't (and maybe even liked you)?


(note: these answers are not to offend you or your thinking, they are to make you see things in another way)

Why are you so angry? Stop being such an ass and start to have fun. This sh*t has gotten out of control. I understand how you are irritated and insist that youre correct, BUT when everyone says the samethings about you there MIGHT be some truth and something you want to listen to.

Heres what you guys don't get:

By keep posting replies to this loser, you're only giving him exactly what he wants: ATTENTION. He craves it, he's starving for it. Every post you keep making fun of him only gives him more of an illusion that anybody actually gives a sh.it about his existance. He isn't looking for advice at all, he's looking for an audience to show off what an immature passive aggressive little fu.ck he is. Get it?

Believe or not there was a time where I actually use to not care what people thought, but because of my damn parents deciding move, things went downhill. Damn them, I had a lot of friends, a lot of girls liked me, most people, even those who didn't know me, thought I was cool, there was even this one girl that I probably WOULD have had a chance dating the next year, HAD MY PARENTS NOT MOVED(She even teased me, asking if I would be her boyfriend a couple of times)! This new school is just so different from my old one, it just doesn't feel the same, the types of people you find here are different, the environment is different, it's been very hard to adapt to. I don't know, something just happened when I moved, that set me off and ruined my self-esteem. My only connection with my old school, is that there's this one guy in my grade, who has a few friends that go there.

Thanks dude, I read over the advice and it definitely gives me a new insight on the thing, this is definitely going to help me fix the problem. Not really much more I can comment on as far as that post goes.

But yeah, enough of this whining bullsh*t, I'm going to change! As much as I hate to admit, the only person that's been holding me back from becoming who I want to become, holding me back from improving, is myself and I'm tired of holding back.

"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.

You know online test prove NOTHING right? Besides, there's a difference between just being paranoid and having the disease called "paranoia", it's much more severe.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

not telling :P
lol im histrionic

"People with histrionic personality disorder are constant attention seekers. They need to be the center of attention all the time, often interrupting others in order to dominate the conversation. They use grandiose language to discribe everyday events and seek constant praise. They may dress provacatively or exaggerate illnesses in order to gain attention. Histrionics also tend to exaggerate friendships and relationships, believing that everyone loves them. They are often manipulative."
