"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.

We have over 13,000 members for crying out loud, and even more regular guests! Can you guys believe that ****? I'd like to knwo what you guys think of that. Do oyu think we need to grow more? shrink? stay the same? This is a big number folks. For every 10,000 american citizens, one of them is a member or guest at sosuave.com!
 

"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.

Not all sosuave.net members and guests are American citizens. We're talking 13,000 out of more than 6 billion people.

I don't get how this is a suggestion and feedback topic? Perhaps anything else...I don't even know what the original poster is asking? Most of the 13,000 members don't post and the accounts are innactive.

He's giving feedback on the forum's size, and asking for others feedback on whether we should shrink, stay the same, or grow more... Feedback doesn't have always come in the form of "UR FORUM SUX & DINT SIND ME MY PASSWURD". :p
 

"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.

Yeah, well. If you guys are scared of too much guys knowing about it... think how many DJ's you've met in real life. I bet that you've seen more naturals.

I'd be more interested in Sosuave statsitics. How many posts daily, the size of all the text, how much it would be in paper print, daily post record etc.

How strange, I was thinking about this yesterday, before I'd even seen the post.

There was a guy (haven't met him, but he's American) in my college going round talking about 'the kiss test' and a form of C + F, so I knew that, at the least, he'd seen David D's writings.

My college only has about 450 undergrads, so a coincidence. So I was thinking, "how many people *are* there who know this forum?"

(Dunno if I'll try and meet him some time).

Obviously, not all 13,000 people are active, but hell, there's got to be loads of lurkers (and about 6 months ago, me for one) who haven't registered.

who cares
it doesnt really matter the size of this forum....this forum could go to hell, it wouldnt matter bc theres so many more sites on the internet you can get this same stuff from....live with it, in a couple of years this way of dating will be all over the US first, cause theres so many ppl just searching the internet....and then it will spread to the world and then then there will be no more AFCs, and girls will gladly get ****ed and they will be so much happier.

oh and by the way how is 1 out of every 10000 ppl that lives in the US a member in this forum....only about .005% of US population is a member here and thats if you assume everyone is from the US which is not true
 

"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.

Bull****. Majority of people do NOT want to change and are too afraid of it.

"Well, I guess she wasn't my type."
They like to guess insetead of finding out what's wrong. They are afraid of the truth they are AFC even in theory they could success.
But doing it would be risky for their dream. What if it went wrong and their dream would be destroyed..

My point being. There'll be always way more those people who don't want to listen ANYTHING that comes outside from what major media and commont opinion is and seems to be.

If there would be no AFC's then the whole concept of nice guys and all should have to change. A DJ would become a standard like being a nice guy is...
Then, do you really think girls would go for the masses of guys who satisfy them at good level? nope. There would be those guys who are even more than a normal DJ and girls would go after them.
