"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.

Just how stupid are you?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Brilliant. :rolleyes:

Besides, the ability to memorize information is not a sign of intelligence. The ability to think your way through a problem is. If this had been a quiz of logic problems then MAYBE it would have been a valid test of intelligence.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

first of all, the quiz is in good fun. Anyone who thinks you can judge intelligence by a quiz is not very intelligent.

Porky, I am pretty damn sure (although I could be wrong) that Ben Franklin signed the DOI.. I know he contributed alot to it.

GirlCrazy, in 11th grade I was taking AP English Lit, a credited college coruse I got an A in.

I went to Mills University Studies high, a school that even though being a public school, that has been ranked by Time mag as one of the top 100 high schools in the country for the last 6 years. Mainly because they pick and choose the students they will take because of their AP program.

My english teacher at the time now teaches at Baylor (she was a MILF too), I'd venture to say she was pretty smart.

I'm not going to get into a silly war with you over a simple ten question quiz that was made in good fun.

Juneteenth, at least down here in the south, is celebrated like, right on my B-Day every year, which is June 17th.

Everyone knows the emancipation proclamation set the slaves free.. Well, there was no phones or email back then, and it took the word a couple of months to get to the southern states that they slaves were actually free... Six and a half months to be exact.

Juneteenth is for the day that the slaves were actually given notice that they were set free.

Just to harp on something someone said, it's true, teachers don't always know, just because they are teachers, that's very very true.

I had a keyboarding class in the 12th grade that i had to pass to graduate.. now mind you I was building computers and would get called out of class from time to time to fix computers around school, but my keyboarding teacher was so dumb she kept telling me I couldn't do anything in life if I didn't know how to use a PC.. and I could type faster then her... I actually got a B in the class, not because I didn't complete the tests she gave me.. but because I was hardley ever in class.

My Trig teacher tried to have me thrown out of her class because I never paid attention... all I did was read up on computers while I was in her class and it drove her crazy. Well, I knew I wasn't going to be a math major (even though I'm pretty good in it) so why not devote my time to something I knew I was going to end up doing? Even with me missing classes and not paying attention I still managed a B and B minus in her class first and 2nd semister.

One thing I hate about school, is that they make you sit though countless hours of bull**** you know you are never going to use because it has nothing to do with what you want to do... which is why I didn't want to go to college, well part of the reason.

Also, my KB is pretty ****ed up, I have to hit delete every other word because half of the words stick together... I tried to go get a Keyboard at best buy today but I took one look at the line and said **** that
 

"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.

"John Handcock" is not a person, therefore he did not sign. Therefore I am right and you lose.

I just love it how you try to qualify for us.

"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.

Sense we're pointing out errors, I thought it would be interesting to point out that question #6? "What is the original US Captail" (should be, "Where was the original US capitol) was wrong.

The answer you had was Philladolphia. Philadolphia was actually the THIRD US Capitol. The first was The Maryland State House in Annapolis Maryland. Followed by Federal Hall in New York. Followed by Congress Hall in Philladolphia. And then our current capitol.. Capitol Hill in Washington DC.

The quiz is biased towards Americans and Christians, so hardly can be used as a decent measure of intelligence/stupidity.

And I know you later said that anyone who thinks this is a measure of intelligence is stupid, but you said it yourself here in your first post.

If you're going to insult his spelling, at least make sure you don't have any obvious typos.
