“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.
Mature Forum Town Hall Meeting
- Thread starter Survivor
- Start date
I've always enjoyed offering advice and passing on what I've learned whenever I can, but the main forum is just too difficult to use these days and I fear that many of the people taking over (the liars and inflated egos, PUA zealots, misogynists and wannabe drill instructors etc) are giving a very poor impression to new users, and may even end up being a destructive or dangerous influence.
At least when posting in the Mature Man forum I expect to get mature responses, and the advice I receive here is often advice I can trust.

Back to the topic.
1. I'm here for one reason only: the quality of the discussion. That's it. Very high quality, sincere dicussions that are relevant to me; with a minimum of showboating and ****-in-hand theorizing.
2. Virtually any topic is fine. The only stuff I don't like to see is any AFC'ism or defeatism/negativity. This is my refuge from that BS.
3. Above all else: keep the quality of the posts high. It's a virtuous circle, high quality posts tend to produce more high quality posts. It should be considered a privilege to post here to help others; and not just a means for blowing off steam or building up imaginary DJ points with forum members.
Overall, this board is excellent; too bad I missed out on 1999-2000; I could have used it then.
Best,

I shoud have also added in my previous post that we should only allow the people for whom this forum is intended to post here. That is, they must be both:
1) 25+ (and preferrably completely out of school and working full time). ie. no kids.
2) be DJ's or aspirings DJ's. ie. no women.
Obviously, on the internet, no-one knows that you're a dog
but if a poster displays either of 1) or 2) they should be sent to a more appropriate forum. This will increase the quality of the board by ensuring more appropiate posts and, probably more importantly, give some real exclusivity to the place (think of the restaurants that are hard to get into, they're always the most popular).

Its about maturity.
I've seen several posts from younger guys on the Mature forum that are actually quite good. I start out reading, check the guys age and think "Oh oh what's this guy posting here for?" Then the guy will usually make a comment about how he is looking for quality advice and that is why he is posting here. As long as he isn't being arrogant or an idiot and shows respect for the forum and the other posters I have no problem having a conversation with an 18 year old.
How can we police this though? Its nearly impossible to rate people's maturity. Hell, I've been in a wacky mood and posted some stupid crap here too. I'm sure we all have. Other times its great to have stimulating intellectual conversation with people who have experienced the same things.
Maybe the forums shouldn't be classified according to age but according to the types of posts. Maybe the Mature Man forum should actually be the Mature Topics forum.
As far as the main board goes I think the quality has fallen off because of a large rapid influx of young newbies who have driven away all the great "old" timers who used to post here regularly.
For example: BungoPony says,
I really appreciate what you're trying to do Survivor its a tough task. I'm not really sure what to say.

Getting some more "mature" advice onto the main board would definately help but there's a generation gap so to speak. We're just like a bunch of grumpy old men saying "Errr those Damn whipper snappers! I just don't understand the younger generation these days. Back in my day we respected our elders blah blah blah......"
I really appreciate what you're trying to do Survivor its a tough task. I'm not really sure what to say.
What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.
You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

Lessons Learned:
1) We have way too many marriage threads. I'll commission some posters to write an all-emcompassing marriage sticky when time permits.
2) Many of you come here for "mature" responses. So from now on I'll allow a thread to develop until it is obvious that the topic doesn't belong here. Generally, responses determine quality, not necessarily the initial topic.
3) Most inappropriate threads shall be sent to the main forum to help with their quality issues.
Thanks everyone for your input.
Meeting adjourned.

i like the mature man forum the best here.
i think the disscussion here is aimed for people who really can stand to disscuss things.
on the disscussion and anything else boards, everyone argues so much. its almost like folks only make a thread to get total agreement that their actions are ok, and when they are told something smells bad , the get defensive and hate you in every thread you make from then on.
cant every thread be disscussed individually? without someone remembering that you didnt agree with them in the last thread?
for guys who arent looking to pick up different chicks every night, they need more information. like, how do you keep the chick you like? things like that.
most guys that post here, have at least experienced a long term relationship. things arent so much up in the air for them. they know what they like, what they dont and what kind of women they are willing to date.
there isnt moderator bashing here , and i am thankful. i hate seeing the mods get bashed for trying to do their job on the other boards. no one is perfect and they just try to clean up the board as much as they can.

I don't post here very often anymore....
a few reasons really:
1) it's really go downhill. I don't profess to be an original, but I've been here a number of years and over the last 12 months it's gone downhill. We have lost a lot of great posters - it was a sad day when Player_Supreme left the house. But I'm not one to hold onto the past, so let's talk about the present.
2) There is not many decent posts anymore. How many of these ABC posts can you read before you go crazy - it's not often I post when I do come here anymore, because it's wasted advice most of the time.
3) I've 'made it' - personally I'm where I want to be. I've nothing to prove - I'm in control of my life and where it's going. I'm busy - and investing time here is not wants important anymore.
Now, I think it would be unwise to remove the main forum. I think what we need, is a commitment from the older more experienced guys to post in the main forum more often. I know it can be difficult, but we need to give back - educate and help - we owe the board this much. I for one will be making more of an effort to post in the main forum - if we make this commitment we can at least bring some sense, education and hopefully clean it up somewhat.

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.
Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.
This will quickly drive all women away from you.
And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.
Dietzcoi was right about the marriage threads. They do have some value as in preserving mental health, though perhaps overly numerous.
Mature man should be open to all, though I think that there should be a convention that sub 25 year olds refrain from providing religious theories or ethical advice, unless it deals with a discussion of the validity of Aristotelian ethics. (Sarcasm?) There are women there, the smart, the dumb, the illiterate. And so it should be.
Keep the other boards. Each poster is casting a vote with every post. Isn't the USA a democracy. Let the dud candidates run for election.

Yo Troops,
What I enjoyed about this board before I started actually posting were 2 things:
1. The honesty of the posts.
and
2. The depth of a lot of the posts. Not many other sites I've visited go as deep as some here @ sosuave.
The posts that deal with the questions of WHAT are often funny.
The posts that deal with the questions of HOW are interesting and instructional.
But it was the posts that deal with the questions of WHY things are the way that they are with male/female relationships that made me enlist into this SoSuave Army. Those posts are so inspirational. Even life-changing.
Peace...one day.
