"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Once something is stickied NOONE reads it so I had to make a new post. This is my idea:

My views on how we can clear up this site from trolls:

1) Clear all accounts temporarily.

2) To get it back you need to an exam. Questions based on the DJ Bible.
If you get a score better than 90% then you can reactivate your account.

3) New members need to take an entrance exam as well. These questions are also based on the DJ Bible. Passing grades are 90% and above.

4) If person passes the exam, then a sosuave.net account can be made.


How else are you we going to screen someone seeing if they are actually capable of giving good information?
 

"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.

wasn't this decided in S/F a long time ago? That no to all of the things that you talked about.

actually the best compromise that I can think of is that posting should be relegated to people who have been here for a little bit but that leads to problems.

Personally I think it is fine as is although we should be getting rid of trolls and flamers.
 

"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.

i think the best thing to do would be to delete accounts that havnt been used in over 9 months. and then make a forum for noobs. also where u cant post in the normal forum till u have been on for at least 2 months (maybe just one) so the DJ forum doesnt get crowded with noob Qs that have already been answered 3 time that same day

I belong to a board that does something like that. You have to post 20 times in the newbie forum before you can post in other forums.

So if you have to already be good to get into the forum why should you even come here?

This board was made for ignorant newbees, if there had been this test earlier then alot of us wouldnt be here.

I don't think that would work, not everything in the Bible works for everone, and there is stuff that works and isn't in there. DJ'ing is about personal style.
 

"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.

Nothing here that hasn't been suggested 23948 times before. Thanks, but things are staying they way they are for now.
