Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

I posted under Boner da Stoner, ethnomethodologist, and now flippinfreak. I've posted on average 20 posts per day for the past ten months... I was told my problem but my disturbed mind would accept nothing.

I think I need counselling. People have called me weird my entire life, I have never understood why they believe I am that way... I've always thought I was simply unique, but it's because I don't put any effort into progressing, I am purely surface level material. Everything I say and think are simply regurgitations of my experiences, whether electronic, real, or imagined. They say that a mind should run free, so I developed myself a free mind, and in doing so lost sense with reality.

There are so many things in my life that need attending to, and learning how to be better is no use if everyday I run into problems that I have no control over. I came to this site seeking guidance, I found only advice, guidance comes from within.

I thank everybody for all the ideas they have made me think about, but I could never truly relate to people over the internet.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

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.

You don't need this. Develop control over your life instead, it's much more beneficial to know you did it yourself, instead of being forced!

Believe it or not, this is the best post I've read from you. You're taking a good look at yourself, and trying to figure out how to fix it. It's the beginning of self-improvement. Although I won't opt for your removal, I wish you well on your journey.

That's the point, I am a cat, this site and the board politics is the string. A cat will go for hours without giving up, but the owner gets bored and stops playing with the cat.... stops manipulating the cat.

That's what I need, just a little kick in the ass.

I don't believe I have contributed anything to this board. Ever thread I read I go into it with the thought that this is going to be retarded and try to find a way to get a reaction out of some poster who I know nothing personal about.

I've tried to help some, but it means nothing if I can't help people who live in my own town in the same way.

I just need the connection to be cut off. I can't control myself, I have tried, but it doesn't work.

Even a time-out should work for me.

I told YOU about myself going to mASF when I this board went down. I stayed in the chat room there and continued my search for advice, to less of a degree than I did here, but it was still damaging. My IP has already been banned from that site, and I can stay away from the other sites since I have no desire to visit them.

If somebody would be KIND enough to report this thread to a mod I would be in your debt.

Best regards

Here's a tip: do something else.

You're obviously addicted to this site. Find some other stuff to do, and fix these damn addictions of yours.
 

"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.

Take a vacation. Run away, go camping or something.

You need a break from this stuff to realize that you do not need it. It's useless, its pointless and you know pretty much everything there is to know on this site.

Now go out there and start using that knowledge!

Thanks Des... I know a few times I snapped at you for telling me the truth. I have progressed my 'naturally developed' mindset since than. I still think I am living in a fantasy world though...

INo matter how hard, I can't put my real thoughts into words... I do need some time away from this site.

I NEED to be banned from this site, even just a timeout. I crave the viewpoints some of the members here have, since so much of it has been true about my life and they have given such great advice, though in my situation have no way of putting into action... even now, I write looking to see if somebody can take my questions and thoughts and give me a method of realizing what it is that I want.

This site has never provided me this answer... It has answered near everything else, so that's why I stay. Hoping that the answer will come to me. My fvcking head hurts.

Flippity-dude-dog-yo...

Dude, I used to have a similar problem several years ago, but with online gaming. I would get SOOO into it that I would cancel plans in real time to hang out with my "virtual" buddies. Now, I didn't get hooked on EverCrack or anything that hardcore, but my gf's would go to bed without me, among other things. At one point, I had one gf that would get so hard up for sexin' that she'd come in my office, crawl under my desk, and proceed to blow me while I was playing video games. I used to think that was a pretty sweet deal. But, that chick actually had orgasms from giving head, so I realized it was pretty sad. She is gone now and I blame the computer. I wasn't "addicted" but I definitely "over-indulged" and it impacted my life.

blah blah blah, right?

You know how to fix it? Simple. Call up your internet provider and cancel your service. Nowadays, I turn my home computer on only to update my iTunes library with CD's I bought and update my iPod. That's like, once a week, or sometimes only twice a month. Sure, I got an X-box. But my friends play it more than I do. Sure, I can stomp their azzes in Halo or run perfects on them in Soul Calibur, but I discourage people from coming over and turning it on. Let's play a card game, let's go bowling, let's do something besides sit around and get square eyeballs.

But what else are you going to do? Take a fuggin' walk. Go to the bookstore and people watch. Get the fux out of the house and do nothing. Count cars. Go visit family. Fly a kite (<--- I've randomly done that, and it is fun as hell if the park is busy: it's like having a cute puppy... chicks think it's goofy fun.) Build a model. Paint. Go to the gym. Go fishing. Walk down to the gas station and buy a pack of gum. Ride a bike. Go to the museum. Make a cool lamp out of something goofy.

One thing leads to another, and *boom!*, you don't have time to turn on the computer.

Do you want to know a freakin' awesome hobby? Shooting Trap and Skeet. Check your local gun laws, find a local gun club, get licensed or whatever, and buy a shotgun. Trapshooting is awesome: You are supposed to blow stuff up - and it's so therapeutic! After the initial buy in of the shotgun, a box of a hundred shells is only like $20 and the cost of round (25 clay pigeons) at the range is only 5-15 bucks. Screw smacking a ball around with a stick, I'd much rather blast stuff! People are usually super friendly, just go down to a local place and hang out. They usually have a "bar" that you can chill at and talk up the regulars. That's how I got started, a guy told me all about what I needed to do and where.
 

"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.

Yeah, I wanna see some kick-ass field reports.

BTW: Nice troll, troll.

You should change your name to something cool like "Sir Trolls-A-Lot"

That's not bad advice, but with no passion I can hold onto, it falls on deaf ears.

There is so much to do, but it is so easy to just go with the flow and vibe with whoever comes across my path. As Desdinova said, I am easily influenced. KillaPeteHog made me realize I need resilience in my life. Khash made me think that I am a seriously weird person... Other people's opinions mean so much to me and they make me think. They influence my thoughts, but not my actions. I'll finish what I was doing, than I'll become entranced by their words after they have left me...

Reading this I remembered one of my problems. I cant get of the damn computer. There are just 2 places where I spend time besides the chair in front of the monitor: school and out with my friends.

I get home from school and just sit the whole day at the computer, only weekends or dates brake the monotony. I go out to drinking sessions, clubs, barbecue etc with friends usually once a week, sometimes get numbers and go out with the girl the next weeks until we have sex. Then again it all gets back to the usual and she dumps me because I'll better surf the internet than hang with her.

In the past I used to play games, like PES4 and CoD2 (I was a clanleader), I would forget to eat the whole day because of playing until one day when I deleted all the games on my computer. It got a little better.

Now I just surf, chat, gamble online and post all day.

I guess I have to cut the cable the internet comes from...

Or do what I did.... build a spud gun! A bag of potatoes and a can of hairspray can cure boredom quite nicely :)

Did you see the site that you can order custom ones from online? That is this guy's business! He has one that can launch a 2liter bottle filled with water through a cinder block wall - crazy fun! Dude's even got rifled barrels for accurate potato launching... way to cool. :rockon:

Here is what I'm gonna do:

Because the internet can actualy be usefull I can't really give it up completely like I did with the computer games by deleting them, so I'm gonna take it out of my system gradualy starting from now.

Im gonna turn it off after I finish this post and wont turn it on until monday.

I'm gonna post some ideeas about this "weekend away from the computer" on monday.

Cheers!
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
