Let's hope he at least crashes and burns.STR8UP said:I'm sure he won't mind me picking up the pieces when he crashes and burns
"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 almost a lost cause trying to help the younger generation

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

You don't like it when men get you mad and they they kiss you?STR8UP said:
But Pook said that was exactly how he seduced you!
:flowers:
I don't like this thread nor do I like anything that Str8up has been posting for the last couple of months. I miss the old Str8up from the Wealth threads, that guy as the Don Juan, this Str8up here I THINK, is just getting old and really bitter.
>> Don't sit around WATCHIN other guys' game, geeez. It really doesn't matter if the guy is a NICE GUY OR A JERK, a THUG or whatever, if he's 350 pounds or he's flexing like Lex Lugar.........if he's mind-fvcking the chick she'll fvck with him. I have MANYYYY friends who are fat fvckers and lay chicks you wouldn't DREAM OF.
It's so LAME for Str8up to sit around WAITING for another guy to get rejected to "pick up the pieces when he falls" doesn't that SOUNDDD like a fvcking Beta Male standing on the sidelines waiting for an Alpha Male to fall to move in on a chick?
Wtf
I wish the old Str8up would come back, he's turning like Pook (if you read Pook's blog) all Pook talks about is feminist and how "women are out to get you." I mean, wtf? I know women can be a little retarded but give me a break dude seriously.

The world will be much less frustrating if you can keep reminding yourself of this.STR8UP said:
"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 see what you mean, I see bulletins posted like this all the time.
one thing I found is you really can't help those who won't help themselves, there's a few guys i know that'd listen and agree with what you say, just nodding and going "yeah" almost defensively and yet continue on their path of doom.

To be honest its not up to us to bring them out of the matrix. They can sort themselves out. I had to learn the hard way, and as much as I would like nothing more then for the world just to wake the **** up yesterday already, its not going to happen Thats my view at least. Often our outlook is seen as sexist/non conformist/eccentric, which can lead to problems at work and in certain social circles.
Amongst my own family and friends Im a little more vocal with my views (and get lambasted for them) but I am a little more circumspect around strangers and work colleagues. To be honest, its just not worth the effort and drama it often leads too. Especially with the fem*****es lurking around every corner. Im sure fem*****s are born with natural ninja abilities. They seem to strike out of no where at times.
However, a lot of men are starting to realize that walking on egg shells to keep women happy is a crock of ****. More and more men are turning their backs on the whole married at 27, 2.6 kids with retirement plan, 3 marriages stint while killing yourself at work. Already, news of future divorces are starting to come through in my social circle. The guys that got married young are already getting their asses dragged to the court room one by one, and they know they are on a hiding to nothing.
There is a growing awareness amongst men with regards to the mens rights movement, and it is starting to gain a lot of momentum. Websites are going up weekly, magazines and newspapers are starting to cover it more. So its not like it was 5 years ago. Men are starting to realize that they are not alone. As more and more men go through this crap, not knowing what the hell they have actually done wrong in many cases, they stumble across websites like this in a search for answers.
I cant help but think that its often better not to provide any advice. This is a personal journey at the end of the day, and the outcome and results are going to differ from person to person

Wow... I guess the joke isn't funny if I have to explain it. See I pretended I misunderstood what was being said and then used a famous poster... oh nevermind...mrRuckus said:
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
