If you're good looking enough to succeed in online dating, you should stick to your strengths 
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
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.

This is absolutely correct, girls who go online dont go there expecting anything realistic nor should you. In fact I've told a lot of girls off because their profile sounds like a monkey wrote it. I don't care either, why should you?Naughty Ninja said:Better yet. If you can succeed in online "dating" you'll have less issues with real life approaches and more azz than you know what to do with. So long as you keep online "dating" in perspective and don't go in with the attitude of looking for a wifey online. Then you're asking for trouble with those types of chicks.
I'm sure most who dismiss online dating have either already gotten too emotionally involved and burned by it, or have failed and are doing a lot of talking out of the azz online as if they were getting so much "quality" in real life they wouldn't be on here complaining about chicks who don't use online dating while throwing out BPD every third sentence in the first place.

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.
You're just the man I'm looking for. I have another thread where I'm trying to get guys who do in-person PU tell about their successes.Plutoman said:I get 2-3 numbers a week just doing my stuff, and getting out, it's been enough for me so far.

Any news there Atom? This amount of online dating sh!ts beyond a joke here now.
Even if it was just a sticky post at the top of this page "ALL ONLINE CRAP IN HERE", would be enough.
