"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

If there's one thing that I want to fix, this is it. Right now I've got a girl sleeping upstairs in my bed. I left her there to sleep because I kept her up most of the night with my log sawing. This isn't the first time it's happened.

Has anybody had any success with eliminating their snoring?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Not only is snoring a nuisance, but 75% of people who snore have obstructive sleep apnea (when breathing is disrupted during sleep for short periods), which increases the risk of developing heart disease, Slaughter says.
You should go and do a sleep test to make sure you don't have sleep apnea.

I know a few people that could set off security systems with their snoring. Both guys are in shape, eat well, reasonable jobs ( I.E Not overworked) - but their snoring is so bad they literally choke, and wake themselves up. From what I have heard though it seems mostly genetic. Not sure if anything outside of a procedure could fix it though

Both my father and mother snore so loud they have to sleep in seperate rooms.

I used to live with a girl that spoke incessantly in her sleep (in Spanish).

i can't sleep on my back or i will wake up everyone in the house. i have to sleep on my stomach

my wife on the other hand, she never really hits that deep sleep. like she's in this really really light sleep mode for like 6 hours where she's sleep but really isn't. you can talk to her and evertyhing. i like asking her questions and getting her off the wall answers when she's sleep. she once told me my son was in the oven lol.
 

"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.

So when you go to bed, you just go straight on the stomach?
