"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I learned this site and its forums from Tomassi. How about you?

And as an additional question, how do you suppose new guys find their way into this forum?

A couple of years ago, after a vicious divorce.

(on the internet trying to understand what had happened to me and why)

After wanting to read up on what happened to Roosh V, I discovered from the search results that his old forum had been revived by a fan, and then while lurking, I came across a post where other forums including SoSuave was mentioned. I then checked it out and decided it was probably the best and most active manosphere forum out there now, so I signed up and here we are.
 

"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.

Eye of the storm
Got turned down by a girl I was interested in, like with many girls before her, but that time I finally thought differently.

Instead of continuing to just be lost I finally started wondering why the hell I couldn't get what all my friends seemed to get. I set out searching for answers on Google, but it would take a couple of months until I found something that actually seemed to address the problem.

The first things I found for a long time was just cheesy pickup lines, I immediately knew that wasn't it. I then came across a Norwegian blog talking about pickup, but from the perspective of starting out at my level, full of social anxiety and then figuring out how to succeed. I immediately knew this was the sort of thing I was looking for, how to go from a fvcking loser to someone who succeeds with women.

They had a forum and someone there posted a link to the Book of Pook. I read the entire thing and had realization upon realization throughout it. It wasn't until I was done reading it that I realized that this "book" is really just a compilation of forum posts made by someone calling himself Pook, and this was the forum it was posted on.

That's how I ended up here back in 2013.

After more than a decade of marriage. Which ended in late 2018, I had no clue as to what dating was like in the ‘modern world’. SS along with Rollo, Roosh & others clued me in.
Ultimately, it wasn’t all that different. Except for Tinder.

The old lady stumbled onto SS in the summer of 2015. I was in my first relationship and LTR post divorce and my man had an ex-wife who was diagnosed BPD (and she was utterly diabolical). I was researching BPD and an old thread here surfaced in my search. I started reading and realized my bf was not alone in dealing with serious crazy.

I lurked for months until in December of 2015 when I felt compelled to contribute my thoughts on a thread made by an arrogant young man.

Been here ever since. I totally embrace this place as a male space, so I try to conduct myself with grace, and appreciate the very real need to help men figure out relationship stuff and life stuff.
 

"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.

I think Tomassi has helped many discover this site and its forum.

I found this site back in high school and I can't remember how...probably just searching "how to get good with girls" or something and found a page what wasn't tied to some PUA trying to sell me something.
You really achieved that. Going from a limited experience high school to a 30 year old man with a 90+ notch count is a success story.
