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.

Put Your Age in Your Profile

Edited because half of you are not even reading the post and are just replying with your age:

The whole point is to put your age IN YOUR PROFILE, where others can see it. Should you decide to do it, your age should show to the left of yoru posts.

End edit...

It is very important that you post your age in your public profile, for the sake of effective communication.

When someone asks a question here, the answer is going to be very different to a 20 year old than it would be to a 50 year old. I find that half the time I'm asking, "How old are you? before I can even start to address any particular issue. Naturally, this is because life experience has to be taken into account, not to mention the social climate of peers at various stages of life.

Posting your age is NOT mandatory, but highly advisable. It just makes sense on a site like this that deals so heavily with social interactions.

How to do it: In the forum heading, you will see links like "User CP, FAQ, Members List, etc." Just click "User CP" (stands for Control Panel) and you will see where you can put your age in.

"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.

He meant in your profile not in this thread, did you bother to read at least his first line?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

why don't you just make a poll
Your age should be a permanent fixture in your profile. No one will remember poll results.

As a reminder, posting age is NOT mandatory. If anyone has a real reason not to post their age that's perfectly fine. It oviously helps a lot in communicating effectively.

Now if I can just get 5string to take down his "100 years old" and put in his real age, which is 85.
 

"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

now who isn't reading sentences properly
How long this comedy has to go? does it seem too hard for you to PUT YOUR AGE on YOUR PROFILE so other users see with who they are talking with.

If you put in that task half of the enrgy you put in bvllsh1tting here Im sure it will do.

wow there no need to shout, If you actually read back through you will realise that my age IS in my profile and it has been since before this bleeding article.

I will repeat that as the message appears not to be sinking in.

My age is in my profile and it has been the whole time
