"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 enjoy checking this site out for weight training/ nutrition advice and what not. They have a weekly article known as "atomic dog". They're full of humor, wit and some pretty cool insights from the writer.

I think it's well worth the read and belongs in here :) Enjoy.

Edit:list your thoughts, I for one think for the most part it encompasses what a dj should be.
 

"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.

A better place, a better time.
Good article.

One thing I've noticed about being a man is that on the surface, it is a ****ing thankless job. It really is a deeper calling, one that slips beneath the surface and generally tends to go unnoticed by all but the most thoughtful of people.

And maybe that is a good thing. I don't think any of us are in this for the praise. Being a true Man may not get you scores of girls in and of itself, but it will lead you to a better place in life. And the women you do get will be all that much more desirable.

Rock ****ing solid human beings. That is ****ing perfect. Represents all I want to be, haha.
 

"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.
