I know this is probably a huge waste of time, but I'm curious how many of you are with me.
Should we be allowed to talk like men here?
Should we be allowed to talk like men here?
"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.
Poll: Should SoSuave Lift its Bans?

- Start date
"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've always thought the swear ban was kind of unnecessary. Anyone who comes to this site looking for advice on girls or sex or life is old enough to be cussing anyway. I don't really see who we're protecting, if that is the intent of the ban.
If the intent is to stifle flaming, I suppose I can understand, but if the swearing ever got that bad, you could just ban the offenders. And as Mctwist just pointed out, everyone goes around the filter anyway.

We should be able to talk about politics. If people get out of hand, then ban em.

well they did that too and then everyone hated everyone and it was one big old soap opera dramatic time here at sosuave.Ever onward said:
"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.

I want the swearing ban lifted. I don't want the politics ban lifted. Politics are ****ing stupid I don't care about them.
I think in the "anything else" forum, it should be anything goes for sure. I don't see why have a forum called "anything else" and then stop people from talking about whatever they want in it. It makes sense not to post politics in the tips forum or health forum, but don't see why banning any certain topic is necessarily in this forum. As for the ban on certain words, I've never understood why we have that. It's not like small kids are reading this site or it has to be "family frendly" or something.

This was true, what 2 years ago?TheVirtualMind said:
I will take your word for it since you are a mod and see more threads than I do, but within the last year I have not seen one political thread get out of hand. Sure some guys get passionate, but that's to be expected. I'm actually quite impressed with how the fellas debate here.
Sosuave needs to get over the trauma inflicted by the Demons, Player Supremes, PRL's etc etc. Its a brand new day yall

"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.

How about we have a flaming thread and the regular anything else thread? The flaming thread can have all the political threads.

I don't come to a Seduction forum for politics. I don't go to a politics forum to talk "game".
It has no use here IMO, and the ban should stay.

Good luck with that.
"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.

Have a political issues forum, and remove posts that get too political elsewhere.
If someone gets out of hand too much, warn 'em, and if they don't straighten out, ban 'em.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
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.
