"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.

It looks like the political threads aren't getting closed very quickly.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

Why are non-political threads being locked?

Like The Zeitgeist.
That was about unplugging from the matrix and thinking for yourself.

I used to think sosuave was about that.

It started off that way and thats why the thread was open as long as it was and allowed to thrive. It began to take a different direction though moving more politically towards the end.

How about this, instead of locking a thread that is interesting, just delete the offensive posts? The rest of us shouldn't have to pay the price of a good discussion at the expense of a few wankers.

PS - I commend you on your modding here mpimping, you seem fair-minded within the limits of your constraints. (Even if u did ban me twice ;) )
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Ninja I wish I had the power to ban but I don't and had NOTHING to do with your ban. And for the most part I actually try to delete posts that are offensive especially concerning flame wars. But in the situation we are talking about i only saw the number growing over time and I would have had far more posts to delete in that topic then I normally allow before closing a thread.
