"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

"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.

A lot of guys screw up because they upolad their WoW record on fb or have stupid friends loading stupid things in their board, we all agree that stuff like this its not what makes a man but go explain it to girls surfing your board..
The very thing - thinking about fb and its affect on your social life is a bit of over-analyzing, and it seems to me it's just a desperate try to mask the true reasons for your lonliness.
“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.
Of course it affects your social life--it's a social networking siteNicholas said:
You know how many friendships are started/ended, relationships started/ended, hookups started/ended thanks to facebook? This is the world we live in now.
Anyway, I expected different responses in this thread but i guess i'll be the first to congratulate you. i deleted mine a few years ago and have no regrets. if you want to reach me, you have my number. also flakes are less of a problem because chicks aren't able to view my profile at any time and get their fix. want your fix? call me and we'll set something up
you also avoid facebook drama which, when dealing with people my age, is always a problem. a sad problem, but a problem nonetheless
I never said it has no effect, but it's not necessairly good or bad. It's up to you how you use it. You can use it or not, but neither of those two ways is generaly the right way. It's just a personal preference. CheersMisterD said:
"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.
For example: How creepy is it for a workplace to ask for your facebook account's password? U.S. government agencies do it.
On top of that, so much is coordinated through it now that deleting it would be shooting myself in the foot socially as I'd never know what's going on until after the fact. Parties and other events are mostly promoted on there nowadays and invites sent out via Facebook, few are even going to think to call that one guy who doesn't have Facebook and let him know, if they even remember.

I'm not totally sure since the recent changes, but isn't there still a setting on it that's called "Only Me"? If so, this should allow you to block everybody from seeing your info but you (and of course the CIA, FBI, Google head honchos, and a variety of other "Big Brother" type organizations...lol)
I know of quite a few guys who only have a Facebook page to post up one or two pics, an email address, and the most basic----but SPARSE information. For them, they just use it to establish a "presence" on the site----but not as a platform of communication itself.
This tactic works pretty well for me and for a lot of other guys.
But now, if guys are using it to "E-Stalk" old girlfriends, or if guys are obsessed with checking it every 5 minutes, then having a Facebook page probably isn't a good idea for them to have at all.
As Roissy/Chateau/Heartiste is emphasizing yet again in his latest post, pre-selection is the number one most powerful tool in a player's arsenal. Unless you have female groupies following you around, I've become convinced that facebook is the best platform for you to show off. Yes, you can call it shallow since it is. But then again, we are here to look at how to increase our chances with women, not to philosophize about metaphysics. When you think about it, facebook gives everyone their 5 seconds of fame. That's why pple are constantly posting pictures and retarded comments on it, for the desperate hope that somebody else will give them a "like".
Pathetic, I know, but when you use it to your advantage it will help your game grow exponentially. And here we go back to pre-selection. The vast majority of my pics on fb are either with hot chicks (exes, random hookups, even random girls) or with my boys having a good time (partying, Vegas, on boats, at the beach, surfing). I'm not posting every 5 minutes, but when I do, the first 10 comments are from hot chicks. If anyone posts something on my wall I don't like, i take it off, be it a comment or a photo of me that looks retarded.
Does this work? I can certainly vouch for it. Recently a girl I've been seeing has posted a bunch of pics of us at a wedding. Now you bet she was looking off the hook, got dolled out for 2 hours before we went to the event. The same day the pics were up, three other girls texted me out of the blue with some variant of "hey, we haven't hang out in a while, we should do something this week."
With a very minimal effort on your part, you can get great results from fb.

GOOD MOVE, BROTHER. No doubt about it, [although restrictions and sparse info while keeping your account is almost as good if you're too ***** to delete yours]. Facebook is nothing but a platform for extreme foolin' and attention seekin'........
A player is a player, he's good and everybody knows it. Whether or not he's got a Facebook account or not, so fucck all that crap of social proofin' and showin' off.....
Mystery might be only a tiny pre-requisite regarding the game as a whole, but fucck yeah its mandatory!
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Of course gaming in person is more effective, and funner. But if you have such a weapon at your disposal then why not?
