"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.

I'm 18. I'm a senior in High School and have never been laid, and never had a girlfriend. For the past couple of days I've been reading around the site, you know, articles and stuff like that. I even tried the experiment to see if any chicks' pupils grew if I looked at them, I don't think any did. I have to tell you, at the time of this post writing, I'm at rock-bottom mood.

You see, I'm not that good looking, there is nothing interesting about my face or my body. My hair is thick and it grows in the dumbest way, I can never style it no matter how much I try. I have these... These... Big ugly shoulders even though I have a slim body, it's like I'm deformed. Have you ever had a chick you liked go for your friend instead? My god, imagine that x100. I honestly believe if I had no friends at all, I would be swarming in chicks maybe. I'm currently ignoring a good friend of mine just because he attracted a girl I liked.

My friends don't purposely take away women from me, but due to some magical law of the Earth, my friends come off by being more attractive. I swear, there have been times where I would know girls for 3 years, then once they do so much as lay eyes upon a friend of mine, the girl would hang out with my friend from then on and almost forget my name for all of eternity. Please, I nicely ask, do not shower me with the "yeah it's your attitude" bull****... I have always been confident, believe it or not, that is, until today..

As time goes on, I get more and more bored of life, I hate where I live, and I become more and more antisocial and I have no will power to fight this. Everytime I go to school, I always see myself as the lowest of all status, this is also something I try to fight but I can't. You know what else sucks, having an insane sex drive, you're looking at someone who can pleasure his self about 5 times a day. And pleasuring myself is something I do to try and forget about my problems. Insane sex drive + never any women = worst thing ever, although almost every guy feels this.

This next part baffles me, I have done nothing to deserve this, regardless of what anyone says. A girl can look at me and all of a sudden and get irritated because my face is that bad? All of a sudden I feel like I'm becoming sexist and starting to hate women, this is something my mind does to try to ignore girls. I have been begging and crawling on my knees finding a way to not love anymore. My "attitude" or depression has reached so far I'm at the point of no return. I CANNOT picture myself with a girlfriend or getting married now. This will be the dumbest question asked, but, is there a way to not love anymore? Why "like" chicks if they won't like back, it will only hurt you in the end and you get nothing out of it.
 

"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.

Are you ugly? Post a pic.

Anyway, just hang with girls a bit more and realize they are not that great.
Go to parties, get the drunk chicks, etc.

My bed, your girl.
Somebody majorly lacks in confidence.

#1. Do not become gay, people who come to this site are not gay. (hopefully).
#2. TALK no matter what. Do you really want to improve? Show us and post some approaches you make tomorrow.
#3. Stop caring about what people will think of you and give yourself a chance for God sakes... be that man you were made to be.
#4. BUILD YOUR LIFE. I want you to find new hobbies, hang out with friends as much as possible, get straight As in school, play some sports, spend time outside, go to the gym and build yourself both mentally and physically.

Think about all this, and decide if you're ready to fully grow up.
Good luck man.

stop whining bro.. and dont follow what this site says religously.. it messes up ur head... its mostly bs (except for some basic concepts)
 

"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.

I think that already happened to me...

Anyway, dude, would you rather live your life thinking that or TRY to change your life? **** happens to all of us, it is just how we deal with it. Stop being jealous of other people because they dont give a fvck about you. So don't go bringing yourself down because of them.

You can't think about it as you do it, it has to be natural. But you HAVE to do it, or she'll just find another guy who does.

This is me.

Well, I'd have to say all these posts were well put, but Chase12, you might want to learn to type a bit better.

Approaching girls is something I could do, but approaching girls I don't know feels awkward as balls. I've read everywhere that when someone knows you like them, that someone can slightly like you back for liking them, which I find the biggest pile of bullshlt ever. All my life I wanted to be a ladies man, and I wonder if I can attract girls with my strange ass personality. And girls doing the whole "I'm gonna ignore the guy that's talking to me, so I'll keep looking forward, pretending not to pay attention to him, even though I can hear him perfectly" thing makes me hate women in general more than actually depressing me about it.

All motivating posts guys. It would be very out of place and awkward if I approached a girl I never knew. And learn some better typing Chase12.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

With an attitude like that, we can tell why you've never had a GF or been laid. Pull yourself together man.

Most of us have been in a similar situation or worse dude, all you have to do is spend some time here and even if you think it's hopeless, you'll most likely be saved in a few months and be thanking us in a "Thanks so much sosuave!!!" thread.

Ummm... Chase? Did you even get what I meant? I wasn't talking about what you said, I'm talking about the way you type things, it can be a challenge reading something like this, "0mg hey liek u ned to lyke pul urself 2gether bcuz u r a mezz..."

Many of you had it worse eh? May I hear some stories/get links to old threads that contain your stories?

Just a question, have you really ever talked to these girls you have known?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I kind of skipped ahead.

You can't care about what people think. I used to get depressed all the time, when nobody liked me. Now I am always happy. If you need help, email me.

Your not that ugly man, even if you do look a little emo. You remind me of my druggie friends.

You just gotta make yourself valuable to others in other ways.

Dude you fvckin have to cheer up man.
Here's my sn: Sheltem Alamar

I'll help you out with this ****, don't worry about a thing. If you wanna change then you'll do it in time.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.
