"I just moved here from Florida."
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.
Most annoying sayings/verbal cliches?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I hate when people use the word, "synergy" also.
I f*cking hate that word! Some yuppie bullsh!t word to replace an already adequate word: cooperation.

Yeah, my teacher in high school forbid us from using that word. He actually would take a letter grade off of papers if he saw it in there.KarmaSutra said:
He would fail people for using it as well. I remember my midterm was a 69 for that class as well.
I NEVER use that label seriously. I only use that word with people that dislikes me like my girlfriends roommate. She wanted to date me, lost out, and now wishes that I wouldn't come over. Sucks to be her *jabs Ken785 in the eye with stick*Purple-Haze said:

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

This thread is about cliches and what not. If you'll recall, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result, so don't expect the vast majority of these expressions to go anywhere anytime soon. We first have to take care of this, that, and the other thing with these cliches before we can move on to over-used euphemisms, colloquialisms, double entendres, and asinine acronyms that somehow survived this cliche day of infamy.
There's no 'I' in 'team', so let's not put the cart before the horse and try to get too far outside the box. For all intents and purposes, I think we can git 'er done quickly if we just do it.

"You're Almost there!"
"No offence, but..."
"Is it just me or is it x?"
"0o0o0o!! You got burned/rinsed/gutted!"
"You wanna fight?!" or "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!"
"00O00O X is getting pissed off now!"
"At least you tried....".
"Its ok, you did your best".
I FUKIN' HATE THOSE!
"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.
