"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.

So Suave was reformatted in 2015 to support Likes (previously it had a strange system of weighted credits or debits). For that reason, the older members don't have the same like percentage (which would be another useful statistic).

Based on total likes here are the top 12 SoSuave members (each has between 1000 and 2000 likes):

1) Poon King (1915)
2) Desdinova (1804)
3) Bible Belt (1628)
4) marmel75 (1528)
5) Espi (1454)
6) deesade (1283)
7) Tictac (1276)
8) RangerMike (1243)
9) El Payaso (1230)
10) guru1000 (1063)

"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.

Right behind you
Lol Tictac got banned. He didn't really post useful advice, he was just such a huge ******* that his posts were funny. Whatever happened to guru though? I recall that he said if he didn't become a millionaire with 5 years, he would take a gun and kill himself and was serious about it. Not gonna assume the worst, but I do wonder what happened to him because I always liked his posts.

From what I remember reading in his thread, he was already 7-figure status. He was describing a story and conviction he put forth five years earlier to get him to where he was.
