"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.
Poll for guys that have slept with 15+ women
- Thread starter speakeasy
- Start date
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
I also think a lot. I know everybody does, but I think to myself quite a bit. I just tend to notice things, mull them over, and move on. While I enjoy the company of other people, I'm also perfectly fine with spending a night with myself.
That isn't to say that I'm not outgoing. I am. I just like to observe and listen more than I like to talk.

"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.

I may not have f*cked that many women(about 9 or so), but I'm at least proud to say that EVERY SINGLE WOMAN I've slept with, was hot. I think I'm actually gonna use this as my new sig.

Awwww. Does somebody need their ego stroked?edger said:
I don't remember ANYONE saying that half the women they banged were ugly.
Furthermore, I don't remember a stipulation being mentioned by the OP that it didn't count if they were ugly.
I've even got to press the issue past that and ask why you are even responding to this thread if you have admittedly banged less than 15 women.
I am also proud to say that every single woman I've slept with was hot.
Sorry, if I'm wrong I'm wrong, but to me it sounded like you were either trying to get your ego stroked or going for a +1 on your post count

oh, and btw, how I do it is I become really good friends with them first, (Without coming off as a wuss friend--basically I choose them to be my friend, not her choosing me
yeah, it takes a bit longer and the results are not as instantaneous, but I profess that it (almost) always works.

.But now i raised my standards.
I think im extrovert.
Nutz said:
That's not what those words mean.
An introvert is a natural personality trait.
It does NOT NOT NOT mean shy.
If you got over being shy and not talking so much because you were scared to talk or whatever, then you were never introverted to start with. You were just a insecure extrovert.
Introversion means you prefer to be that way. You feel that constant socialization drains you. You like doing your own thing by yourself. Your company is better than the company of others most of the time.
I'm not shy, but i'm an introvert. Sometimes it's a struggle just to say "hi" to my own friends because that's how little i want to deal with people at times. I take people in small doses. A few hours max. I rarely go out more than one night a weekend. I have fun one night then the other i completely do my own thing alone. At work, i prefer to alone in my office with the door closed, but I do come out and socialize. I just can't do the constant chit chat a lot of other people do all day. I'm not socially 'on' all day. People are annoying and draining.
But as I used to be really shy, I think I am extroverted a bit much. I say whatever is on my mind and it messes things up sometimes. If I'm NOT talking sometimes I feel down!
As for hotties, been with a couple. Been with more average and ugly women though. I'm not that attractive myself though.

Me too, i think its because since i am a social person, i need to talk to people or otherwise i sometimes i feel depressed, because i like to be around people .I thinks its my curious mind, and the fact that im craving a conversation and a good time. I got in trouble sometimes at work for talking too much, but hey i provide really good customer service.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

My ego's actually sky high, as I'm quite content with my progression in the way I handle women. I must say, I'm a confident man, I'm exactly where I want to be in the game. I may not pull that much, and I'll blatantly without shame, admit that. All I know is, it's not in my deck of cards at the moment(or it may never be, who knows). Life goes on though.magickarl said:
