Anyone here well travelled in LA? What is the size of LA? Is LA big city that it will take you long hours to travel from area to area by car? How about if you take a bus or train?
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
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.
Oh thanks for the links. I was too lazy to navigate the site, I just wanted to ask people who are actually residing in LA instead.Originally posted by idiot_boyfriend
Fire Departments? Fire stations?
We have a huge Fire Fighting force. Can I ask why do you need to know?
Here is the list of stations
This has the number of personnel
Hi. Would it take you more than an hour travelling in some street or highways by car? What about if you take a bus or train?Originally posted by Kidd
I live in it bro.
And yes, its ****ing massive. Travel time depends on traffic.
Well that's very admirable of you. Good luck.I want to become a firefighter/paramedic in the future and I'm thinking of going to LA Fire Department.
LOL. During rush hours, it can take about an hour to get to many places....street and highways.Hi. Would it take you more than an hour travelling in some street or highways by car? What about if you take a bus or train?
Dude, that's not even close to the extremes of L.A. I'd say about twenty minutes off peak driving hours. Rush hour is generally from 6:30-9:30 am and 3:30-7:30 pm. Those two places look like eight miles of each other. Los Angeles looks more like this:LA is a huge city but how come the driving duration from Nevin to Mount Washington (two areas at the extreme of LA) is only 13 min. according to this site?
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.
Yeah, I wanted to become a firefighter since I was a kid. haha. It must be a challenging job. Thanx bro.Originally posted by idiot_boyfriend

I've never taken a bus, but if you're outside of the central area of L.A., it could be difficult to get a bus. Trains are quite nice, actually. I took the Metrolink from Union Station to my stop in the Valley, and it was very quick, quiet, and (somehow) relaxing.
