"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.

How is the request for "no keyboard jockeys" taken in this forum?

It is not uncommon on the internet for people to offer advice on stuff they do not have enough first hand experience.

On a PUA forum that´s a even more common ocurrence.

Myself, as I grew older, I understand the importance of firsthand experience and as such I refrain from posting if I do not have the proper experience.


So the question is: how is it viewed on this forum if you request in a thread that "KJs" are unwelcome to post?

Is it offensive if such a request is made?
 

"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.

A major symptom of a keyboard jockey is the refusal to admit to being a keyboard jockey. Just read all responses and decide on your own who makes the most sense.

A KJ is not going to say to himself... Hmmm... I'll refrain from answering as I happen to be a KJ".

This reminds me of women on dating sites who say "If you're into playing games please do not reply".

I do get a chuckle out of the occasional thread here on SS where a new guy will ask a serious, intelligent question and then one after another these new guys with two or three previous posts start spouting off their "wisdom". I shake my head and just wait for one of the old timers to get things on track, or I might do it myself occasionally if I'm inspired with a useful brain eruption.

If you're worried about "offending people" on the Internet then you probably get run over in real life.

You can't control who replies to your threads. Just read all the answers and take the wisdom where you find it. Weed out anything that doesn't pass the logic test.
 

"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.

Nope, I am very much alpha in real life. I´m not actually concerned whether I´m offending someone, it´s just that I don´t know how this forum´s moderation would take a novice poster demanding that the people posting have a proven track record or something. Moderation might decide it´s out of line behavior and block my account.
