"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.

I am probably the greatest person I know. In fact I am pretty damn near perfect.

My only weakness is the fact that I have no sense of time and as a result, punctuality is not my strong suit. I am a Master Procrastinator!

Case in point, I was supposed to fly to Italy today, but I missed my flight. Wish there was someone I could blame, but its all my fault. Its not the first time it has happened either. I do sh!t like this all the time and it really pisses off my friends. Worst of all it makes me angry at myself.

How do I break this bad habit?

Anyone else deal with this problem?
 

"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.

thats whats called being a dumbass
 

"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.

holy **** man. I consider myself as one of the greatest procrastinaters that have grazed this planet, but I've never missed a flight. In fact I'm quite anal when it comes to appointments, but quite the oppiste when it comes to assignments, deadlines etc.

Write yourself notes. Keep a sheet of paper on it with things that you need to remember or things that need to get done. Make sure to put deadlines on there too. Try to make yourself look at the piece of paper every day, so it engraves the dates into your memory. Or just try a date book.

Your post may reveal more about you than you know.

One major reason why people procrastinate is the fear of failure. How can you not ever fail? Don't do anything.

Researchers have studied so called 'perfectionists' it is never attainable, therefore leads to major agnst through failiure or paralysis.

Embrace failure as a major component of success .
