"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.

Is it a bad idea to post social proof (pics of you with hot exes) for dating profiles?

Maybe blot out their faces. They say there is no greater tool than pre-selection...so showing you've had hot gf's could do wonders. Right now my ex is periodically stalking my profile with a fake one she had created and told me about (it has no pictures but is the same username she showed me when she told me about it). So posting them may be read as a sign to her to come back or something too, IDK.

Anyone ever try this concept? I'm willing to try it and report back.
 

"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.

It's viewed as an eye roll. Posting a pic of you with two drinks but nobody else with something like "a perfect ending to a perfect night..." would get you far more piqued interest.

Remember that it often works in your favor to allow women to fill in the blanks in their own mind.

Funny thing is I have that on my profile already! It was from a date with a Chinese girl in January of this year and there are two drinks on the table. SHE took the picture of me and sent it to me. I'm wearing a button up shirt and a suit jacket, looking really good in the pic with a nice smile on my face.

I might try adding some of said pics and see though. An experiment of sorts.

Agree with this. More subtlety is required. I think a group pic somewhere fun with some hotties in it is way more effective. A picture of just you with another chick, even if she is attractive, definitely looks "try hard" to most.
 

"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.

Dont post a pic with just one girl. Have posts where its clear the girls in the pic are friends.. at least one of your pics must have social proof in the form of showing you with your friends. This is the thing that tells girls you are cool ane liked by people.

Posting a pic where its obviously your ex is not a good idea. Makes women want to swipe left in most cases.
