"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.

Just read about Ray Leotta death. Catsmeow thread. The Mod made sure to add his/her personal viewpoints before closing down the thread.
Closing it because he no longer wants to hear viewpoints. That aren't in line with his. Wtf?
 

"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.

I respect Bill's responsibility to keep the forum running smoothly and I don't disagree with that individual decision. That being said I thought he could have left out his own personal viewpoints as well. Mods giving the appearance of taking sides isn't conducive to "running smoothly".

A simple "this subject is controversial and has been discussed ad nauseum" and leaving it at that would have sufficed.

Ehhh this is a privately owned and financed site, whoever is paying the bill sets the rules. If the person footing the bill trusts the mods then so be it. I’ve moderated online forums before, “you can please some of the people some of the time…”

Personally, the manicured and curated egos of some parties here provide me enough value and a personal petri dish to conduct my research in, worth the rare inconvenience here and there.

Thank the mods, it’s not an easy job. And yes I’ve been called out by them too in the past.

The job is akin to herding cats.

Good post, I agree. We all have our good and bad days. I was in a hurry and not on top of my Mod game when I made that post, but its main purpose was to relay some of the height of Covid fear mongering that occurred on the Forum back then, and we will not be doing a repeat performance of that now.

As of this morning, Ray’s actual cause of death has not been publicly released yet…

Thanks @Billtx49

I still think it's odd that after two weeks since his death, the public still hasn't been made aware of his exact cause of death, perhaps once we are, such speculation will stop.
It’s probably due to the fact that he died in the Dominican Republic. Politifact is now stating the claim that he died from Covid or a vaccine is false.

This ^

We really have to get over talking about Covid and spreading unnecessary fear. We've gone through enough of social terrorizing and division to continue it 3 years later. The real pandemic was and still is people spreading fear, division, and hate under the disguise of a virus.

Stop.

The real pandemic is still obesity.

In his last photos, he looks pretty bloated in the face.

My guess something related to long years of boozing, etc.
Could very well be, we may never know as I seriously doubt his family would agree to autopsy findings being publicly released unless blamed on a natural cause…
