"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.

Well, I was just sitting around doing nothing (as always), when I realized that I don't really have any friends. Well, I've always known I'm not very popular, but I just thought about my situation and realized that I really should be more "social" than I am right now. I know there's nothing you guys can do about it, I guess I'm just posting to let it out.
You see, I do have people to hang out with at school, I have a place to sit at during lunch with a couple people I talk to, so I'm not a complete loner. BUT, out of school I'm alone. On the weekends no body ever calls me to play basketball, to go to the beach, or to just go hang out at their house. I would call people, but I don't have their numbers. Even if I did, it would seem stupid to call someone that I hardly even talk to and ask them to go hang out with me. On the weekends I basically stay home and sit in front of the computer like a total geek. It's probably because I don't have any close friends, but those are so hard to get... Do I lack social skills? Well, I talk too much sometimes without realizing it, but I know some really annoying kids who have friends too, so what's the problem? Oh, this reminds me: people tend to hate me after they get to know me better. On the first day of class when I didn't know anyone, everyone was cool. A month later I'd be kind of isolated with only the "nicer" people still talking to me. I don't freaking understand this BS. I mean, this completely annoying kid who would go up to random girls and say hi and then literally RUN away actually has people saying hi to him in the hallway. Nobody ever says hi to me in the hallway. I'm so sick of being a loner. My free time are all wasted in front of this computer, it's almost like this computer is my only friend. I want to be able to get out in the freakin sun with friends and do what a regular kid does... I'm sick of being made fun of by some immature kids and not have friends sticking up for me, and since they have friends that would back them up if I were to try to start something, I have to just take thier crap. I've never gone to a dance, since I can't even get a guy friend what are the chances of me getting a date? (actually, even if I did get a date I can't dance anyways) Oh yeah, forgot to mention I've never been to the damn mall with anyone but my parents and sister.
I do come to this forum quite often since at least I can have some "conversations" with people here(since I don't have anything else to do), which is why I'm posting anonymously because I don't want the whole world to know about who I really am (a damn loner). Basically, if you feel like posting any comments, questions (to find out exactly how much of a loser I am and whatnot) or advices ( to think there'd still be hope for someone like me) I'll get back to you pretty quickly since that's just how much life I (don't) have.

Wow, my own post annoys me, I even post like a damn loser!
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

yea man start talkin to people and being friendly, no one can get annoyed with that. not too friendly where they feel like they can take advantage of you, but show some personality when you talk. if you're a funny guy then use it, humor works best

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

does anyone notice how all the 'loser' kids write really long posts about how THEIR life sucks and no one likes THEM. hint: no one is interested in you, at least when youre a total loser with no life. i would bet that in any chance at conversation with someone, you talk about YOU. have you ever heard about the book "how to win friends and influence people"? you probably havent. cant remember who wrote it but i read it and it changes you...it was written in the fifties and talks about how you should talk about them. in conversation, dont talk about your life. NO ONE GIVES A SHIIT. we dont! we tell you this all the time! no one on this forum likes you people...cause we're asshooles? no. we like eachother (kinda). the reason is...you never try to help others, you never talk about other problems. your just talking about how your life sucks and everyone hates you. pick up a copy of how to win friends and influence people.

and when you talk to people, ask them how shiits going. ask them if they hate school ask them their opinion ask them something that shows YOURE INTERESTED IN THEM. no one likes you because everything you say is a complaint. if your life is depressing, no one wants to know. grow some balls and get a shrink.


if this post didnt make you think, you need to go back and read it again. or give up. youre just too thick.

Sad, but true. People don't give a fvck about what you're going through and such. If you don't realize that, you aren't going nowhere.

think from everyone elses view:

theres that one kid dreamx...such a weirdass...never talks to anyone except to ***** about life...whys he always smell like rotten cabbage?...he's so emotional about everything. i dont care if your dads a ***** grow some balls and get over it...oh and why does he always say these instead of this?

of course you have no friends. this is your image you project.
 

"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.

i never talk to people about my life, i hide it
you dont mention if your in a shiity mood? and i dont just mean about your life, about yourself. the subject of uhhh...baseball comes up. you might start talking about how you love the braves and how you went on vacation to georgia and how you visited their field and you did this and you like that.

of course, theres an easy way to settle this. be honest. what do you talk about? if you talk at all.

That's by Dale Carnegie.

We All Eat Food.. yes, of course there is hope. You have a long road ahead of you. You need to focus on making yourself acceptable to yourself. You need to accept that making that happen is going to hurt. But it'll be well worth it. Are you ready for that, or not?

Sounds kinda like me. I used to be like that while I was in 'reall' school. I got some peeps to han with now though but I guess the main reason my life is marginally better is because I get called the 'pitbull' so people usually avoid insulting me face to face. OTOH I have a ****y computer witha busted sound card and have to come to a cafe to use the net.

It's my break now but no one is there(I'm retaking some old subjects so it's the dead space between two batches). Still the important part is NOT to give a ****. You think those populer kids are happy? You just have a different lifestyle and who decides whats more 'in'? The majority thats who. Only reason they can make fun of you is becacuse there's more of them. Seriosly if you were both in a dark alley they'd become a lot friendlier.

Allright that went a bit OT but I got some issues too.Good luck bro and remember you DO have somebody that cares, us. We're here helping you so dont feel totally alone. If you have to though atleast think yourself the lone tiger instead of the ugly duckling!

Go get em tiger!

Maybe the reason that people don't like you is that you ***** too much. I use to be like you in middle school. Having no friends (or ****ty ones if that) and hanging out by myself. But then something wonderfull happend. My balls dropped and my vagina dissapeared. Now I have plenty of friends. If you don't want people to think you are a nerd, then stop hanging out with the nerds. Make some new friends and hang out with them. And stop *****ing.

Hey you! Yeh you Mr. We all eat food. I was miserable about my life. I had people to talk to in school but never went over to other kids house and the first time i invited someone over was a lot later and all we did was sleep. The DJ Bible sounds very good like it should work and it does, but do you really trust it? You hear everyone here talk about the wonders it works and how it changed their lives, but how do you know they were not born with the skill to be social? Well you don't.

I have been on this site for a while and if you really want to know how I changed just reply because the storys kind of long.

Isn't it kind of hypocritical to say no one cares about your life, but then be interested in theirs?
 

"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.
