"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 there anything wrong for a guy to take self taken pictures?

"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.

Both men and women take pictures of themselves all the time, look at facebook. I don't think there's anything wrong with it, but people will probably subconsciously think you have more "value" if someone else takes it, or there's other people in the picture with you.

I think it is strange. This is ok for girls to do, but especially shirtless pics in front of mirrors it makes guys look like douchelords. I don't even like to post photos of myself that others have taken. You always increase your value by having someone else take/post the photographs.

"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.

Looking at the pic you took we can see that light is from top right and there is shadow on your face. Thus it is a crappy picture. Go ahead take photos of yourself, if you can, just as long as photo is good. Photo is good, if it hasn't been altered, when you have good self-image. Looking at the photo you took and your question it is obvious there is a problem. It's called inner sparkle, happy people with good self-image have it. That's the secret some people have that they look good in all photos. Combine good self image and good picture taking skills and you have an excellent photo.

so good pictures do not have shadow?
 

“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.

OP, you've made more than one of these threads and this need for attention and validation from a bunch of strangers on the web isn't in your best interest. You're perpetuating something that you should be working on controlling.

Part of me thinks you're trolling for you own amusement and another part wonders if you're really that insecure. Fess up... Which is it?

please don't post that. nothing makes me cringe harder than when guys go looking for facebook likes. its bad enough when girls do it. also, why aren't you smiling? don't post your rape face unless you want girls to think you rape a lot.
