I just want to count. I've recently been wondering if I would ever want to settle down so I want to know how many are on the same boat.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
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.
Older men that are single, please raise your hands

"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.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Well everyone on here knows I'm single, probably closer to a priest type of single than a player type of single since religion plays a big factor against my averision to sex - I've lived without a relationship or a woman in my life long enough to know I just dont need one and it seems when I did have a relationship I preferred to watch Doctor Who on youtube then spend much time on the phone with her, guess I'm just not that much into girls and am either involuntary/voluntary celibate or just do not care.

Define "single..." 
"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'm in the same boat you are.Dabrant29 said:
I DON'T try to go all out with a HB 7+ cuz i know I'll get rejected and kill all the attraction faster than a donut in front of a cop.
As for hanging out, I get to that phase and I apparently can't make anything blossom beyond the friends zone. I rely on pure luck for those matters i.e. guessing the next step/move. I be hoping something happens! (usually 2 in 10 times I succeed) As stated above, maving a move will only kill...ME! Plus all attraction!
