Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

it seems there is an infestation of idiots with useless advice... bumping up stupid threads that just died... and other things that are ruining that section.

is there ANYTHING that could be done? i don't know if they're trolls, but their names are not unique at all... and it seems like the same person is using the same style of names. examples such as: mybackhurts, slightoverbite, bigbacneproblem, lvl20darkmage, myhandhurts. some are real, some are names i made up just now.

do SOMETHING!

they're either trolls, are plain idiots like GrandWizardAlamar
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Michele, trust me, you are preaching to the choir. There is only so much us (mods) can do. We can close redundant, useless, pointless, and just plain idiot threads, but we can't force people to learn.

We are trying our best though.

I didn't harass him. I'm telling it like it is, he always comes up in my threads posting useless stuff that has nothing to do with the topic and he calls a bunch of others trolls. I just think it's sort of hypocritical.

Considering the people he was calling ARE trolls...

I just cleaned up the HS forum a bit.
