"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.

I figured this should go here in the Anything Else Section. Mainly a post to the Moderators in relation to the posting maximum rule. I believe this needs to be removed, what do other Forum members here think?

I have no idea why this rule is here? It makes no sense because if the purpose of the rule is to eliminate Trolls, well, as we have seen lately the rule has done a piss poor job of doing that. If the purpose of the rule is to discourage people from posting on SoSuave all day and to "go out into the real world", again, if someone has no life with a ton of time to sit around posting on Sosuave all day, then if there's a posting maximum they will just go to another Board and post there for the remainder of the day.

This rule needs to be eliminated. You get into a decent discussion or debate with Forum Members, and you can't respond for 24 hours until the posting maximum is lifted. This rule completely and utterly makes no sense.

Plus, while the posting maximum is in place, apparently you can still create a new thread. Lol, come on Moderators, it's time to do away with this insane rule.
 

"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.

So according to that thread, the site owner is the one who implemented this rule.

Yep! He sure did.... but before that it was chaos! Members posting and replying to 11 things or more! I tease. It was nonstop posting. Which was great until members didn't get along with each other's opinions and flamed each other. Eventually something had to give and this was a choice he made. Less issues now.

There's pros and cons. Nothing wrong with status quo. I hit the limit sometimes but nobody needs 10+ posts a day. I see where you're coming from. I don't care too much though because that would give the trolls more power. some guys on this site make a new account, post 10 times, and get banned. might be better this way.
 

"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's Lazy Moderating

Why is that other message boards that have a posting limit? Maybe it's because trouble makers are quickly bounced from the board. On a forum such as this, trolling and flame wars are bound to happen. The problem is that So Suave is quite slow to bounce obvious trouble makers and trolls from the forum

There is something to be said for "a little less conversation a little more action". After 10 posts one should spend the rest of the day in real life. Just my opinion.

this question has been asked for years now, it's no point in asking because it wont happen
 

"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.

I think this is like a court case. If you have nothing new to say, the judge isnt gonna change his decission based on things he's already heard before. I'm sure the owner knows people don't like it but has decided that it's worth it anyway.

I demand that they remove this rule!
 

"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.
