"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I feel the need to apologize.

keto, whoever it was that did it pizzed me off.
there was no reason to go link that whole board here telling them they were in a flame war with us.
there never was a flame war!!!
there was a thread here spoken in military form from one member encouraging others to help speak out over at the other site he was posting at because the views were a little warped. they in turn came here, now thinking we are warped because they do not understand our site.
 

"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.

LOL. And maybe a little sick to your stomach?

Well, I would never trust or reply to another woman on this site. But I can't believe Iqqi is a man. Hasn't anyone verified this?

It's just cross cultural communication. We'll get the lingo soon! Your attack provoked a culture shock over at LS it was hilarious to see everyone trying to figure out what was going on.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Don't fall for some woman's cheap trick. Surely an exposed butt won't make you ball up in the corner like a little girl will it? Be a MAN, damn it! I can't stand wussies.

If we're going to interject ourselves into other people's lives why can't we step up and help iqqi with her problem?

I think it prudent that we at least try to offer some reassurance about S/Him's drinking problem.

We have to clean up our own backyard before someone else's.

Whether it was iqqi here who went over to LS is irrelevant. The fact is we have a SSoldier who is wounded and we should help that SSoldier.

Maybe Iqqi and I can hook up as AA partners or whatever it's called. I drink too much also.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I forgive you.

The best site? Not sure about that yet. Certainly one of the funniest and most comical though.

Definitely the best. What other site changes your life like sosuave? It did take several years though, and it's still work in progress.

Actually, I've had other forums change my life. I can't speak for this one since I'm new.
 

"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.
