"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

What the hell does it mean when you call someone a "troll"?
 

"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's someone who writes a ridiculous (made up) post just to get a rise out of us.

To be fair, I think some SSers are too quick to yell "troll." There are a lot honest, legitimate posts from guys struggling in the game. Sometimes it can sound like a troll post, but in reality, the poor guy is clueless and genuinely needs help.

On this forum its thrown around by users to discredit the opinion of another poster.

However in reality, a troll is someone who posts with the goal of creating a sh!tstorm.

Or clearly seeking attention for the sake of attention instead of genuinely needing help or having an actual problem.

They lie so we will pay attention. I consider that trolling. Agree or disagree?

Someone who tries to get an emotional rise out of other posters (usually by making up stories) leading to personal attacks and causing a big giant flame war. They never have anything positive to contribute to the community and are extremely annoying.

The new mod team is doing a pretty good job about filtering these nuisances out, so hopefully you will start seeing that term less and less.

Well not everyone posts here because they need help or have a problem. Many offer advice and others just like to strike up discussion, in which case attention is desired.

So I cant really agree with your assessment.

Trolling is simply useless comments that add nothing to the general discourse at hand. Things like this include off topic posts, off topic threads, insults and negative/hateful viewpoints.
