"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I always thought iqqi was a female. It's obvious from her posts. I would disagree with some of the things she posts even more if she was a guy. So herbeing a female has nothing to do with it.
 

"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.

How funny would it have been if my user IP was the same as Karma's or Keto's?

Perhaps this is fate; Iqqi and DavenJuan are soul mates with the same IP address. There is no doubt you 2 should meet up and see if everything clicks. We could have another sosuave marriage in the works!

Could someone please remove the personal info that Rollo posted publicly without my permission. I am pretty sure that is not cool.

Someone seems to keep overstepping their boundaries as a moderator.

Iqqi, don't worry about it. There is such a tiny tiny chance that anyone would be even remotely be able to put two and two together.
Dion't lose sleep over it.
At the end of the day, so wha? Big deal. You post about issues in your life like 85 percent of the adult online world!
Seriously. Think abot it. No one is doin any wrong doing or anyting embarassing.
What, talkkng about how to deal with issues you aren't sure how to deal with? You want to be happy , and want to take action to do just that?

Isn't THAT what this whole site, deep down , is really ABOUT?!



Nothing's going to happen.
Iqqi, no one will be able to 'recognize' you.
An if by some Miracle of God they do,you just handle it like a Lady.

Everyone needs to remember, thatthe ONLY thing ANYONE can 'harm' is our Ego, NOT Our Self Esteem.

Our Pride and Ego are interlocked, and they are the most vulnerable to attack.
If you don't inflate or try to protect and worry about your Ego and Pride, Life is a wayyy better adventure.

Also, keep in mind, that Rollo, and Karma , Str8up and Deep Dish actually know each other personally.
They're actually good friends.



The best advice is to not do things you will be embarassed about or regret later.
No?
Conduct ourselves accordingly , and no worries.

Its not that Interceptor. I have a problem with someone overstepping their boundaries because of a personal issue they might have.

Plain and simple, I don't want anyone knowing that I live down the street from **********. You dig?

And its obvious some of them are good friends, I don't care about that. I mean, we have all made personal friends from this site have we not? I believe birds of a feather flock together. I'm proud of my flock. (Winks at Fingz).
 

"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 understand the problem with boundaries and mods, Iq.

And I understand you don't want anyone knowing your personal information that you want to keep private.
(I'm the same way.)
I thought I expressed that? No?
Could've sworn I I showed that I agree with you.
I DID try to help you understand that it is highly unlikely that this may happen, so I was trying to console and comfort too.
"cause if they did, and they did some stupid sh*t, I'd bust them up.

bangin' and slangin, yeah wussup?!:trouble:

Anyway, just trying to help. That's all.
 

"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.

Why are women on this board? Are you lesbians? Just some old birds trying to use their "woman credentials" to give advice on stuff they have zero experiance with. Tbh they shouldn't be allowed to post at all.
thank you mr newbie for that wonderful welcome to the board speech, however, we are not new.
even if one does not take any advice the ladies of the forum give, perhaps they can make note of how we react to things even in this forum. it may help someone with their interacting with women skills.
the way i see it is, that even if i never have a thread worthy enough to be put in the bible section, i still try my best to steer the members here to be the best person that they can be and to constantly motivate themselves to continue to redefine themselves.

I made this point in one of the posts that got deleted. I wouldn't ever take much advice from females when it comes to dealing with other females, but you can learn something from how the women on this site post their experiences and react to certain things.

YEAH. :trouble:

Lol, Pennie is NOT having it these days, huh!?


And thanks Interceptor, I know you are just trying to help. Sometimes us women are just inconsolable, though. You know?
 

"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.
