Yea. Sometimes my thoughts don't quite make it to the paper with 100% claritybut I assume you meant that he spoke in a condescending manner?
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.

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.
Whatever, LIK. Don't preach to me about doing something creative and worthwhile with my time, it makes u sound hypocritical man.Originally posted by LikRetsam
Instead of picking at little points, go do something creative and worthwhile with your time.

And another innocent tip: maybe you wouldn't fail school if you put more time into english essays or something instead of these long a$$ posts of yours...
peace out
Dude, come on Lik...you take things so seriously. Did I ever say I didn't appreciate your harsh (but true) opinions? No.Originally posted by LikRetsam
You bother me.
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

All I have to ask/say is this: If an admin were to get the logs of LikRetSam's total time on the forums, and account for the 6 hours he is at school. I would guess that his schedule would be like so:
7:00am: Wake up, and get ready for school
7:30-3:30pm: Act like a computer nerd at school
4:00pm-11:00pm: Act like a pimp on sosuave.com
11:15pm: Go to sleep
You take all the concepts, all the useful stuff provided here at such a deep level, examining everything to it's fullest extent.
However, most things here are meant to be taken at a "surface" level.
What you are doing is like examining the following sentence: "Mom thinks peanut butter is awesome and tasty."
Then trying to derive every meaning from every word and every context.
When all this sentence really means is mom thinks peanut butter is awesome and tasty, end of story.
I have believed many times that I had it. Each time I got creamed. I learned my lesson longggggg ago =)Originally posted by The Matrix: Reloaded
Wow... I am beginning to notice that more people are starting to look deeper into things. All of those "techniques" are not exactly cutting it like they used to huh? Lik, I have a feeling that you believe that you have got it... but you have not. Great start, excellent start. But this is only the beginning... you are only at the beginning. Many of the things you said seem concrete in your mind... so many paths derive from everything that you said... that somewhere you will easily gets lost. Everything you said sounds very good in theory (on surface) but when you stop to think about all of this Lik (like BBB mentioned) it may be different (or alternate to what you orginally believed) in practice.
Just think...
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.
This is not really what I was talking about. Lik... this is not about lessons, experience, or what you have not... I will leave it at that.Originally posted by LikRetsam

Things will never be 100% as we see them. Having a perspective on something makes it easier for us to tackle that task even though what we believe may be completly wrong.
I do not claim to know it all and through acknowledging this I may strive to continue to gather my information!
I think that to the less experienced, this may help them keep things in check. I'm only 15, but I've had my fair share of experience. I havn't been around the block as many times as others but this may help those venturing in this new neighborhood.

No you won't. unless you're gonna make a big post about it.Originally posted by The Matrix: Reloaded

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.
