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.
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.
ChrizZ said:That's because "not so good looking people" don't think that they can get hot girls and don't approach them.
That's exactly what society feeds you.
"You have to have model looks to get hot chicks".
"You have to be rich to get hot chicks."
"You have to have hundreds of friends to get hot chicks."
All that is BS.
I'm only 18, but I don't live in a cave. I see hot chicks with ugly or average looking guys all the time.
Loser? My post has nothing to do about being negative idiot...maybe you should pay attention to what you read!!!Real said:whats this? another negative thread from a loser who needs to focus on being more positive in life?
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.
Every time you post you're just negative, are you trying to tell us something about yourself? If you want help, the free clinic is the other way.Real said:whats this? another negative thread from a loser who needs to focus on being more positive in life?
