"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.

Hello guys,

It has been a long time since I last spoke on here or offered tips, or updated the Bible. That was because I was involved in a long term relationship and felt that it was not necessary to continue in this venture, knowing all that I did.

However, things change.

Now three and a half years have passed, and my ex broke up with me. Of all the things I could have, maybe should have felt, I decided to not mope around and feel sorry for myself, and I decided not to do silly things like call her or email her all the time. My ability to do this partially stems from all the things I learned from this site and from you guys, thank you very much!

As a result of my unusually calm reaction, I have now gained a friend in place of the loss.

But now, I'm back in the game and looking to improve myself like I did before, but before I started posting useful things here again, I thought I owed it to everyone's many hours of work here to let you guys know.

Have fun,

Nick
 

"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.

Nicholas Hill,

One thing that would interest me,would be just how is this friend that you have just now gained will be part of your life?

Holy cowboy!

Nice to see you back here, my good man. Glad to have some of the good ol' boys to show those new guys a thing or two about how it's really done.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

*bows*

What a rare and wonderful treat to read a breakup post such as this! No :cry:, no :cuss:, no "how can I get her back, guys?"

All I can do is offer my sympathies for your 3 1/2 years lost, Nick. Welcome back. :eek:
