@)advice please
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.
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.
If you are a social retard and a recluse you could be a 10 and still not get laid.zekko said:If every guy on this forum who said he was an 8 was really an 8, there would be no need for this forum.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Actually I would disagree. If you're an 8+ you WILL GET LAID. OF JUST LOOKSmangotot said:If you are a social retard and a recluse you could be a 10 and still not get laid. Throw in lack of confidence in there as well.
Are you really 54? I was thinking of setting my age to 98.
Get a good job which pays well as a start.thelonewolflegend said:ok well how do i improve on my social status then i mean this **** sounds like high school but ig uess thats bull**** reality hot girl always ****s popular guy n **** i mean itsz like these women never grow up. How do you get this status?
This is false. I know a male model who hasn't been on a date in a year because he never goes out and so obsessed with himself, making money, his schedule etc.No.Danny said:Actually I would disagree. If you're an 8+ you WILL GET LAID. OF JUST LOOKS
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.
Exactly. 8ish guys clean up.zekko said:If every guy on this forum who said he was an 8 was really an 8, there would be no need for this forum.
Amen. It's a matter of finding the 8 that is compatible... or accepts you. Time and lots of no's in sight but dont give up.Epimanes said:Why do people think getting attractive girls is black and white? IE: you will only get a hot girl if you do X or Y. Its all preference of the female towards the man trying to attract her.
I have seen 8's (women) with guys that look like shyt. So looks is not everything. All depends on various factors.
I don't disagree with your basic premise. I might rephrase that you would HAVE to be a social retard and a recluse not to get laid if you were a 10. However, I don't believe in 10s.mangotot said:If you are a social retard and a recluse you could be a 10 and still not get laid.
