"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.

Hi,

I'm stuck on this stupid assignment. I'd really appreciate if someone could help me out.

Classical and Operant Conditioning - Come up with 2 examples of CC and OC from your daily lives. This could have happened yesterday, the day before, a week /month/or even years ago, but it must be relevant to your life. Type out the definitions of each, give your example, and explain how it fits the definition.

I.E. for Operant conditioning, tell me why it's a positive punishment, negative punishment, pos reinforcement, or neg. reinforcement - according to adding or removing a positive or negative stimulus.

I.E. For Classical Conditioning, tell me what is the UCR, CR, UCS, CS and why



I give reps for the best answer!
 

"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.

No one is going to do your homework for you. Especially if it's as easy as this. If you know the terms you should be able to do it in five minutes. Use your dog as an example.
Better yet he should use this thread as an example.

i think you should do a report on learned helplessness and use yourself and the internet as the example.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

That is intro to psychology type homework. My professor and I don't really like the course, but once you get past that, the psy courses are not as chaotic but do tend to be jumbled with a lot of weird terminology. I personally used hiking in the woods and encountering a bear, but be original w/your example too.

Operant conditioning example: "I taught each of my hoes to suck me off by using operant condioning. Whenever i wanted a belowjob, I would push one of there heads to my crotch, if they refused, I would slap them as their punishment. Now I barely even need to raise my hand before they cower in terror, and dangle their mouths to my penis like the dogs they are."
