"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.

Fellow Don Juans,

My good friend and wing Rubato celebrated his 25th birthday yesterday. (Congrats buddy!) I have received some great advice and guidance from the men on these boards over the months. You guys have all been amazing and I hope you can all come through for me once again.

In the context of birthdays, 25 is probably the second or third milestone age a man reaches (18 and 21), but it also has some significance. At 25, you're a quarter century old and in terms of masculine development, you should be rounding into the person you will become for the rest of your life.

To all the DJs here:

* What is the best piece of advice can you give Rubato?

* Where were you (or hope to be) in terms of your DJ development at 25?

* One book or movie that every 25-year-old DJ should read or see.




ALSO!

To anyone with connections with old-time SSers Monsieur Pook or Anti-Dump: This is asking a lot, but it would mean a lot to my friend here if either of these two legends were to contribute to the thread.

Thank you all in advance!
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
