You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
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.
Precisely my experience. It's just a pool of potential matches. I've had very good success with OLD. If messaging on the OLD site itself is promising, I offer my phone number and a phone call. If that goes well, I offer a "friend" request on Facebook. If they get through the "Facebook" stage, it's on like Donkey Kong. Plus, "shopping" on-line is fun. Kind of eye-opening, too.kraytkiller said:Not saying field gaming isn't better than OLD, but on OLD it's fairly easy to see if they will look like their pictures or not, or if they are fat or not, through some various methods of deciphering photographs.
Of course you can always be tricked by a collection of fake photos. However in my experience, this is extremely rare.
Being afraid of bad results is not a reason to not use OLD.
Being afraid of going out and hitting on girls irl is not a good reason to strictly use OLD.
OLD is simply another tool to use to bump up your numbers and chances.
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.
In your age group (ive been reading your sutff) I wouldn't advise it. That's just the bottom of the barrel.yannick43 said:No its not, online dating is a total lie, all women i met online never looked like there picture, plus they are all shallow, even if they are fat ugly below average looking women.
OLD is the worst place to meet women, because there are close to 30 men for 1 women, huge waist of time, energy etc.
Also depending the age group i am older there are almost all single moms with 2 kids full time, fukk that
The MAJOR key to "success" with OLD is to not only be very photogenic but to show off your physique and work out like you do.guru1000 said:I've banged over 100 girls online in my life; 35+ this year alone between 24-34 yos, HB7s-8.5s. I don't find too many 9s online; that's where real-life dating comes into play.
If I were after a quick lay online with a 7-8.5, I could schedule a double-header for the same night, same location, same time; pick the better of the two, and blow off the other one. I did this tonight, unfortunately the better of the two didn't want to bang tonight, so I walked out on her, lol.

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.
