You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
oh, okay...sorry 'bout that. you're right, i'm an idiot. i really need to grow up.Originally posted by Alph
TooColdUlrick, ur a fukkin idiot, u act like ur still in the elementary school so do me a favor and SHUT UP!
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.
Does ne 1 else c the irony in dis post?Originally posted by Alph

wasn't it you who asked how to be popular in high school in the The Mature Man forum?
my point was, if you try to be popular, it will blow up on you.
Al Gore (do you know who he is?) tried to be popular--people saw right through it. if you try to be popular, you are insecure. if you try to be popular, you end up appeasing people. you become known as the "sunshine boy"--a little svckazz that no one respects--like those nerds i spoke of. they wanted to hang with us, and they gave us $$$ for the pleasure. and if you ASK how to be popular, it's even worse.
didn't this just happen to you with your post? merely asking this question means you're a poser. How to become popular? hmmmm.....
funny thing is that people my age do this all the time, especially in my line of work. it's pathetic, cuz i'm still the popular one to this day. the more things change, the more they stay the same.
so let me answer your question. the way to become popular is to gain respect.
but what do i know...i'm an idiot.
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.

nah, i think the only one who didn't get it was the original poster, Alph. but i think he's coming around...Originally posted by FratAndDiddy
Too Cold, youre getting pounded over here.
doesn't sound like your too "popular."
If you change your image, it can make you popular, iv seen it happen, it started to happen with me and then i thought wtf, these guys are jerks and left. Popularity is a facade and is quite easily gained.Originally posted by TyTe`EyEs
JSH, are you saying that by changing his image he will become popular?
I beg to differ.
