What the hell are you talking about, you just came out of nowhere. How can you talk about patience when I waited for 2 years to become a mod!Originally posted by TheVirtualMind
Whatever happend to "patience?"
:cheer:
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.

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 most people, its in their human nature to be "power hungry" and being a mod is like being someone that is "powerfull". Thats just how people think, wheather they are aware of it or not. If I were to become a moderator here though, my intentions would be for nothing more than to help the other mods and allen keep this place in order.Originally posted by aBAzLLnA
What's so special about being a mod anyway? I never understood why people post like mofo's just to get the "mod" position...

don't forget mods aren't allowed to have a sense of humor or anything of the like. Everyone knows what happens to mods when they have a sense of humor...
people cry and complain...

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.
What makes it not acceptable? Is having some humour against the "rules"?Originally posted by TheVirtualMind

I think that he was just joking because mods are supposed to act like robots but cannot hurt others feelings, if you do therefore you will yelled at by a group of people saying how it should never have happened.Originally posted by ~ªêQµïTª$~

Neither do I. It's sycophants such as yourself that get my last nerve. Nothing personal, i just dislike sycophants in general. It's like you're sucking up to the head bully so he doesn't kick your ass.Originally posted by comic_relief
BTW wescott I'm friends with the mods and treat them like normal posters. I see nothing wrong with any of them.

so then if I was friends with you or anybody else on this forum other then mods and i wanted to stick up for you against the mods. Would that still be just as bad or would that somehow be good.Originally posted by WesCottII

Mod humor is strictly forbidden because everyone else starts getting yelled at.

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.

There is NO sign of ANY sarcasm in that, so my appologies for not picking that upStuff like that isn't acceptable to be a moderator.

Cliff notes : A fool. Pretty apt, huh?A humorous or farcical interlude in a serious literary work or drama, especially a tragedy, intended to relieve the dramatic tension or heighten the emotional impact by means of contrast.
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.
