"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.

"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.
Well aren't you a tricky little girl.Originally posted by MsThang
Just because the website belongs to her doesn't mean it's me. I won't tell you yet because I want you to be honest(But I will, I promise.)
I'm still keeping with my statement

Hmmm.... I stand corrected. Man, they don't even look like the same person!
By the way, I hope the poor girls don't find out what's being said about them - they'll probably be depressed for a month, knowing how sensitive women are about looks.
First off I would say that you can't judge any type of book by their cover. I.E. now it may seem more natural to assume a hot girl is a *****, whereas alot of less hot girls are every bit as *****y.
I am jaded right now, but that is because too many girls are disappointing me once I get to know them.
I think I am going to base more on a girls job and IQ. It's not gold digging, it's just that I hope to find a bit better mental stability.

Ms. Thang, I bet my life on it that you are the one on the far right. You posted your pic here before, and that is the chick that resembles you the most.
"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.

These threads blow big monkey penis. Cut it out already with the "Rate my picture" ****. If you are soo insecure about your appearance that you have to ask people's opinions over the internet, then shoot yourself.
Okay, not really... but seriously, cut it out.

Someone I actually remember from the good ole days.
I seem to remember her being a red head.
My guess is the second from the right.
Could be a trick question, maybe it's none of them.
She is or was a red head that's all I remember.
I think it's time for dinner. later
Nice job, and there we have it. What was your username before?
In truth this is actually an argument between me and my friend about the girl on the far left. I think she's a monstrous beast and he used to date her. Sorry to be so devious but I wanted as little bias as possible because we have a bet going
Thanks for your input, though, guys."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.

You're not too shabby, MsThang.
But I've got penkitten now. You'll have to settle for one of the other guys.
Oh, right, I see how it is.Originally posted by Giovanni Casanova

Excuse me a minute. *sniff*In any case, because you were all such good sports here is a real picture of me:
Don't drool too hard, guys, I'm taken...

*I only felt validated to write this after MsThang said " I think she's a monstrous beast" *
"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.

Dude! That b!tch-beast in the pic looks pretty similar to Jariel's mom. I gave her the sausage somethin fierce.Originally posted by MsThang

Other then that, they are mostly ok looking girls. I wouldn't pursue any of them with full effort, but I wouldn't feel ashamed if my friends found out I had gotten with them. (except far left

Yowza....
It appears that MsThang is the winner.
I think she would look better without glasses. Just my opinion, though.

Senior Don Juan
You'd be the prettiest of all four girls if you lose the glasses and use some of those.
I have a feeling she said it was her just to keep things going for the other girls as well. I mean, the replies were still coming, so why did she suddenly decide to say it's her?
Nah, it's not her. I could be wrong.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
