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.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
True. MGTOWs should say even less and go their own ways instead of ranting on seduction forums.:-) said:always say less than necessary.
Yeah, you should take your own advice lolHollowpoints said:True. MGTOWs should say even less and go their own ways instead of ranting on seduction forums.
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.
As you can see, Hollowpoints is a woman so she says more than is necessary.Hollowpoints said:True. MGTOWs should say even less and go their own ways instead of ranting on seduction forums.
Not nearly as low as paying a stripper to "like" you. :crackup:bigneil said:As you can see, Hollowpoints is a woman so she says more than is necessary.
BTW congratulations Hollowpoints for reaching a record low status in her very first month, and in so few posts. She is remarkably efficient at spewing nonsense.
:crackup: All strippers. Too try hard lil neil. Save your mgtow money instead of blowing it on dancers who make their living taking off their clothes for money and drugs from other betasbigneil said:Hollowpoints wishes that were the case, because she knows no man will ever pursue her sorry fat azs.
Looking at my phone I have text messages from 5 beautiful women, 4 of whom texted in the past 36 hours:
1) 46 year old lady from IL who met me Friday at a restaurant, who found me on LinkedIn, said how nice it was to meet someone with style and class, and is now stalking me.
2) 21 year old beauty from OK who I will be seeing Friday when I return to get my stuff. Met at her restaurant 5 months ago, took her on 2 dates including one overnight date.
3) 21 year old actual Playboy Bunny from GA who is a stripper and gave me her number Saturday when I met her. Looks like Daryl Hannah in Blade Runner.
4) 22 year old beauty from TX who I've had sex with in 5 cities and counting. She wants me to marry her. Met at strip club over a year ago.
5) 32 year old Russian beauty who I used to live with in NY who still loves me. Met at grocery store 2 years ago.
How much did I spend on these 5 girls in the last month, combined? $100 (given to Daryl Hannah).
The most logical explanation for how I picked up 5 beauties, average age 28, born over a 25 year span in 5 states is the simplest one: that they liked me.
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.

That's a bit tragic. The enrichment of your existence must be the envy of your peers, far and wide.
"about 1 reader in 100 has anything coherent to say and only about 1 in 10 ever post,"
I would argue that the members of this forum demonstrate an above average level of coherence compared to the rest of the internet.
As an aside, not sure how you are objectifying or sourcing your statistics, but they are certainly making you sound wicked smart, they really are :yes:
"so the odds are very low of there being any responses worth answering."
One thing always worth taking in to account, is that opinions are a bit like ass-holes; everyone has one, and most of them stink.
A 46 year old stripper?Hollowpoints said::crackup: All strippers. Too try hard lil neil.
Look at you all emotional. Your alleged life revolves around strip clubs. That's the lowest form of getting females. You prefer strippers because you can't get quality females but only those who you can feel "better" than.bigneil said:A 46 year old stripper?
A stripper from the grocery store?
A stripper who was so young and sweet I didn't lay a finger on her?
If they were all strippers then they only charged me $20 each on average. That would be the best deal in the history of humanity. But if you'd prefer a fat, old, foreign, bitter, feminist cvnt who has the lowest rating the history of SS, follow the advice of Hollowpoints (as if she would ever own a gun!)
