"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.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

My kids prefer the PS2. They can play all their old PSone games, PS2 games and they love Final Fantasy games. We all play Final Fantasy XI...even my 4 year old has a little Taru-Taru she plays on. We have a keyboard for our PS2, so we can type just like on a computer. You can also hook up a mouse (both by USB). FFXI uses a hard drive and modem you attach to the back of the PS2 and you can relax on the couch to play games rather than sit at a computer...much more comfortable.

firstly if thats so much then half of it (yours) is still a lot and 5-6 posts a day is not all that time consuming when you think about it.

I know people whos whole life is computer games, some one form school i spoke to his hobby is computer games he says he plays 3-5hours a night on the computer, this post toom me a minute or 2 to write 5-6 posts would mean 10 minutes a day on sosuave, so ok its a bit more then that but its still not all that much. (although i could not tell you how much because i multi task, switch form 1 thing to another, like right now apart from this, msn and looking up things of intrest on the internet such as researching the tsunami i am also fixing my bike.)

I gotta GameCube..it's aight..lol.

The only thing missing is on-line connectivity.It's a ***** cuz my freinds suck at games or they don't own a GC so they don't own the same games I do.

I have Metroid,Mario SS,Eternal Darkness,Re-Make,RE-Zero,MK DA,and a gang of others.

Nintendo has more addictive games IMO. The X-box is the best all around system though and I'll be scooping the XB2 next year.

For real my favorite system was the Dreamcast,better games,best graphics out.Jet-Grind,Soul-caliber,House of the dead,RE Veronica,etc.I was REALLY addicted to that **** back in 99-00.

I can't deal with PC and all that specs/upgrading non-sense.
 

"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.

I was just pointing out that people can have hobbies like videogames/surfing the internet/whatever without it consuming their entire lives...

Somewhat, but Quake III requires a higher framerate IMO.

"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.
