"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.

"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.

It just means you posted a good picture of yourself, pictures more often than not lie anyway unless you can see a set of atleast 20 pictures of someone, I'd never rely on a single one to judge if someone is good looking or not.

for some reason hotornot has a bunch of guys rated way higher than i'd expect, like every single photo i was looking through. i dont know why that happens, or how accurate it is
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

This goes along with the Peter Griffin quote "There are only fat women, Lois"

Your looks shouldn't matter. Your confidence should. If you perceive yourself as lower than what others perceive you as, that's more of a problem than what you actually are in appearance.

Hotornot is biased. It wants to make you feel good about your looks so that you buy their subscription. Notice how even the most digusting guy or girl dont get anyhting below a 4. Their formula to compute your average score is not the normal formula to compute averages but its a different one that is more likely to give you higher averages.

Haha, that site is such garbage. I haven't looked through there in years up until recently and all the chicks are 7's and above. Most were 9's and above. If a chick is showing her titties, she's getting a 9. If a dude is wearing a military uniform, he's getting a 9. I saw chicks that were 6's at BEST with 9.9's because they were in a sexy pose. Dudes with a nice haircut and tight T-shirt or polo get 9.9's.

The takehome message of this is: HotOrNot is a pure novelty. It does not rate people's looks to any measure of accuracy. However, since women evolved to be sexually attracted to behavior patterns and displays of masculinity, we don't need to worry about our looks.
