"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.

Allright...I want to sneak out of my house at night, chill with buds, get laid, etc. However, my house has an alarm that covers every window and door to my knowledge and beeps whenever it's deactivated (covering with a cloth doesn't work, the beeping is from inside the wall or something). My parents activate it every night then come say goodnight and all, and hence I'm stuck inside for the night with no feasible escape route. Any suggestions?

And if you're going to suggest not sneaking out, that's what I've been doing, and I don't drink or smoke...I'd just go to friends houses, or watev happens to be the reason to escape. Nothing illegal except driving past curfew.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

I got an idea, I just need some quick info: Does it beep when activated too? Is there a real way to tell if it's active or not?

It beeps when any buttons are pushed (though differently for activation/deactivation/screwing around, I've thought of "setting" it myself) and there are lights that indicate if it is active or not

I was gonna say, just set it so it's on before your parents do, so when they set it, it turns off.

Though AFK might have something there. ;)
 

"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.

Find a door that your folks can't check (side garage door or something maybe?) and leave it open, so you can go out and in it without them finding out.

Side garage door works but I'd have to get to the garage first, and the door to that is under the alarm...and seeing as I have to be home either 11:30 or midnight (with occasional exceptions), asking wouldn't work. I have one way to get out, but I have to plan it in advance...I go out to "see a movie" at 9 or so, which ends too late for getting home at a decent hour...come home, chill for a little, then go. However, if my friend IMs me at 1am and says to come over, I'm screwed so far.

does the alarm set off when the handle turns and the lock unclicks, or when the doors actually swing? if the first, then why not just put a piece of tape over the place that closes it, or maybe just open it a crack so you can get out?

LOL, sounds like the movie The Great Escape! Seriously, just ask your parents to stop being so strict and let you out later!

It won't work, they don't want me out past 11:30-midnight. And where's the fun and challenge in that?
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Aw... but your parents don't? What are you to do?! Your parent's actually give a ****! :( THE HORROR!

If your parents are that concerned, you probably shouldn't be out that late anyway. If you must, just leave anyway and tell them to **** themselves if they have a problem with it.

:cool:

Why not just go to your friends house and stay over night?

Thats how I do it but I don't do it very often.

You would already be there anyway. At least my parents don't give a flying sh!t if I am out late.

I've got caring parents and I'm grateful for that because otherwise I'd be a loser goin nowhere in life without their guidance. I respect them enough to generally follow their rules and I understand why they put them there, but sometimes I'd just rather break free and run wild for a few hours...I know enough that I'm not going to fvck myself over with a few hours of freedom in the middle of the night.

Stupid beeping.

I don't recommend anybody doing this, since it will lessen the protection of your house and family if not place back correctly. But here is a lesson on how things work.

Pick a window.

Open it, look at the bottom plane where the window was lying. You will see a circular shape where the sensor is. Usually it is covered with paint. Then use that as a guide to find the other part of it, which is glued to the bottom of the window, hidden from view. One could simply remove it, if it ever need to be replaced, since it is held with glue gun type glue. Then it can be place it on top of the sensor to see if it works. But if left like this the window now can be slightly cracked or open, without the alarm knowing.

Next week's lesson, how to pick locks. LOL j/k

Actually, it's on the side...how sensitive is it though? If I just tape it onto the reciever part will it still register as safe?
