"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.

There was a lawyer in my small town who always had a reputation for being shady. He finally got arrested smuggling heroin into a prison. After getting caught, he made up a huge lie about being the victim of extortion. He said he was under threat of death if he didn't smuggle the drugs. Eventually it all came unraveled, and he admitted that he made up the extortion story. Then he killed himself.

His widow moved into my neighborhood. For being 50ish, she is not bad looking. Blonde, not fat at all, fairly milfish. She would look hot in a tennis outfit. She had an unemployed live-in boyfriend. I talked to him once when I brought back their tiny dog that had run away. My impression was that he was a fat idiot. Later, I learned that he was a homeless guy who had been begging food and money off the widow outside her workplace. Eventually, she just adopted him like a stray puppy and took him home.

One day, the two them got into an argument while driving through town. He reportedly was strangling her with her own seat belt as she drove down the road. Someone wrote down their plate and called the cops, who showed up at their house later. Homeless guy runs through the backyard into the woods.

The cop calls for a dog and some other cops, and they search for him, but can't find him. At one point he walked out of the woods in full view of several cops, then ran back, and they still couldn't catch him. This is in winter, with no leaves on anything, so it's not that easy to hide. Plus the dead leaves make a loud crunch underfoot when walking. And the cops had a dog. Then the police just gave up and left. I never saw that happen on the tv show COPS.

Now homeless guy apparently lives in the woods again. The lady says he comes back and breaks into her house occasionally. The night after he got away from the police, we had an ice storm and sub-zero temperatures, deadly weather to be outside. She has an order of protection against him, but it's not like it matters if the cops can't catch him.

I am waiting to see how the story unfolds, but the point I wanted to make to relate it to this forum is that a homeless guy scored the same woman that a rich lawyer did. I have read 1,001 excuses on sosuave over the years for "I can't get a girl, because I don't have _____" Homeless guy didn't have any of the things that would fill in that blank, but he was still scoring milftastic poon.

"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.

Attraction is all you need to get laid. Push the right buttons and you're in - great read.

Funny story. Wanted to add that extortion of criminal lawyers and people generally is a very real thing, and that the dude could have been telling the truth about it. Matters not if he claimed it was bogus later, and the fact that he killed himself adds to the credibility of the extortion angle.

Takeway is -never- think it's cool to hang out with criminals or people who have been in prison because they are "gangsta." They don't play and will put the screws to you in a heartbeat if they see an opening, take everything you have. Be careful about whom you give basic information to or let into your life. All those Sopranos type shows with the "cool criminals" where they give the guy a chance not to gamble and only extort people who did wrong bladebla? All total BS. They will extort anyone they think they can get away with extorting, completely innocent or not, they don't give two rats.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Shes a widow in her 50s. Sounds like she settled and its not like shes high quality to most men anyways. This story offers no helpful narrative for tough luck guys on this site....unless they happen to be homeless and willing to settle for old widows who likely have issues because her spouse killed himself.

This is a classic "type" of man that does well with women. The traveling vagabond who eschews the drudgery of 9 to 5, and instead gets by on his charm, charisma, and wits. Literature is full of these types of characters, and in real life they are out there scoring with chicks. What else do they have to do?

The dead lawyer was in his late 60's. She might be late 40's and not quite 50. She has a 9 y/o kid, so she's probably not that old. The lawyer was an ugly old sob. I'm sure she looked hot compared to him.

Sosuave needs a reality tv game show where guys compete to talk to women under various circumstances, like a bar, club, grocery store, street, office, any sort of venue can be a round. Homeless guy round, where you dress like a hobo and get sprayed down with some synthetic BO first, would be for double bonus points.

I think we would find that some men just excel at talking to women under any circumstances. And if that's true, it means that success with women is not dictated by one's circumstances, at least not solely. Circumstances do create opportunities, which is why money and looks are still important, but closing the deal when an opportunity presents itself is a skill that is separate from any tangible thing. Excuses, on the other hand, are always very tangible, which is a sign that they are almost always bvllsh!t.

Great read. Waiting on part 2.

Love rich older cougars. Homeless guy scored.
 

"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.
