"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.

I'm tired of people whose whole existance and energy, day after day after day, goes into crying and complaining about the actions of people on the internet that they've never even met.

I'm sick and tired of logging onto my email to find fifty reported posts from one particular member who thinks that they can be the biggest pain in the ass on the face of this planet but if anybody responds, they should be punished.

I'm tired of people who run and cry to the moderators over every little perceived injustice and then turn on those very same moderators any time they don't get their way.

My day only has 24 hours... 6 of those are spent sleeping, at least eight are spent working, and the other ten belong to me and my family. I don't know how many of those ten hour blocks I have left on this planet, but I'm not spending another fraction of them d*cking around humorless, obsessive-compulsive, or just plain pain-in-the-ass posters. I realize that most of you don't fall into that category. The ones I'm specifically thinking of I could count on my hands and still have at least my two middle fingers free. For those of you who are awesome, thanks for being awesome. For the others, just being humorless, obsessive-compulsive pains-in-the-ass should be enough punishment for them.

So for those of you smearing menstrual blood on your faces like warpaint and marching on Washington for the removal of Gio Casanova... I'll grant you your wish. I'll step down as moderator in the hopes that it will make your lawn greener, your TV reception better, your Pabst Blue Ribbon tastier, and maybe children and animals will even start liking you. Perhaps me stepping down as moderator will make your gas mileage higher, your mortgage payment lower, your mattress softer, and your house cleaner. It would need to have that kind of effect to be worth even ONE PERCENT of all the whining and crying a b*tching and moaning from a few of you people.

In the meantime, I have a real life to live.
 

"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.

If you're so tired of it, then why not just step down as a moderator. There are plenty others who would like the opportunity.

Way to read a post all the way through to the end, genius.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

They seem about right to me.

I saw MODERATOR (and still do as of 2:00PM Eastern Time) underneath your name. I guess you're a little slow to pull the punch.

And I don't appreciate your tone. Wise up. Just cause you have a bad day, month, or year, doesn't mean you have to publicize it. We all have $hit we go through. Deal with it like a man.

That's because Allen hasn't signed on yet to make that administrative change, sparky. I'm sure he offers his condolences that he isn't quite quick enough on the draw for your high standards.

And I don't appreciate your tone.
Wow, and I really give a sh*t what tones you do and don't appreciate.

Wait, are you crying on the internet about people crying on the internet?
 

"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.

You could have wrapped all that up by saying I'm stepping down, but proceeded to dish out the babble of babylike drivel you put down in words. Great job. I wish you would have stayed on as a mod.

Hey, that's pretty clever and I just never in a million years saw that comment coming. But you'll notice that I'm referring to the people "whose whole existance and energy" is devoted to b*tching "day after day after day". So, no that's not me. Thanks for playing, though. I'm sure someone will give you a nice consolation prize at the door. Maybe the home version of the game or something.

I could have, but that wouldn't have been as fun for me (and I'm the one who counts), and also it would have provided you with one less thing to b*tch about and I'm all about giving people a reason to b*tch.

...and as much as I side with everyone else, your replies seriously make me laugh out loud :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:
 

"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.
