"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.
Tanning
- Thread starter Telos
- Start date
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Tell her "only real men get skin cancer".
"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.

Tell her it has nothing to do with tanning. Tell her it is therapy for your claustrophobia.
Than crack on something she does.
If she calls you on it, than just tell her how you like it and how invigorating of an experience it is.
Than switch it over to her by asking: "Isn't there anything invigorating that you enjoy doing"?

hahaha HELL NO. What part of skin cancer don't you understand?eminence said:hahahah yes.

you have a higher chance to get skin cancer from the sun then you do with a tanning bed, as the UVA and UVB rays are controlled. if tanning is used in moderation it provides healthy nutrients to your skin, boosts your mood and energy levels due to the release of endorphins it causes. Even the aging caused by it can be counteracted if you moisturize correctly.Jaxon said:hahaha HELL NO. What part of skin cancer don't you understand?

No **** obviously if you live in a tanning bed it is bad for you, but learn your facts before you speak.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
"Many people today still want a tan despite the fact that sun exposure is known to be associated with skin cancer and premature ageing of the skin. A tan is often seen as cosmetically attractive and as an ******d sign of good health.eminence said:you have a higher chance to get skin cancer from the sun then you do with a tanning bed, as the UVA and UVB rays are controlled. if tanning is used in moderation it provides healthy nutrients to your skin, boosts your mood and energy levels due to the release of endorphins it causes.

"In conclusion, there is no scientific evidence that the use of tanning beds and booths is any less damaging or harmful than exposure to outdoor sunlight. To the contrary, the evidence suggests that indoor tanning may be even more damaging and dangerous, especially because some people become addicted to maintaining a deep, dark tan irrespective of the season."
Dumbass. What do you think a tan is? SKIN DAMAGE. That means any amount of tan you have is due to your skin is trying to protect itself because it has been damaged. Therefore there is NO AMOUNT OF TAN THAT IS HEALTHY. Exposure to sunlight without tanning or burning can be healthy. Being in the sun with sunblock on can still "brighten your mood". Learn to f*cking read and take a f*cking health class before you open your mouth.

your still an idiot, your getting information from an uncredited source. Are you a doctor? Do you know anything on the subject other then what your brainwashed to believe?
Lets break down what you just wrote:
Ever hear of something called evolution? Everything that happens in our body is for a reason. Tanning is the human body’s natural and intended response to ultraviolet light exposure. Throughout human evolution a tan has served as the body’s natural acquired protection against sunburn and overexposure... so actually you have a tan to protect you. Why do you think skin cancer is more common among people who have a paler skin tone(irish, scottish, etc) its because they aren't protected from the suns UV rays as well.Jaxon said:What do you think a tan is? SKIN DAMAGE. That means any amount of tan you have is due to your skin is trying to protect itself because it has been damaged.
hahahah since when does melanin cause skin damage or cancer? I guess black people are doomed to have cancer and all must be permanently damaged...Jaxon said:Skin cells that have been damaged by ultraviolet (UV) radiation produce more of the pigment melanin and that is what produces the tan.
Natural light actually is composed of energy waves that are transmitted 93 million miles from the sun to the Earth. Each energy wave (or light ray) occurs in a different part of a complex light spectrum based on its length in nanometers (nm), which is one-billionth of a meter. Different forms of light are differentiated by the length of the waves – the wavelength. That means that no two types of light are the same. As I mentioned earlier, the amount you get from inside a tanning salon is controlled specifically to a healthy level. Not only sitting outside in the sun do you get a higher amount of these rays, you also have other rays coming down on you...Jaxon said:"In conclusion, there is no scientific evidence that the use of tanning beds and booths is any less damaging or harmful than exposure to outdoor sunlight. To the contrary, the evidence suggests that indoor tanning may be even more damaging and dangerous, especially because some people become addicted to maintaining a deep, dark tan irrespective of the season."
I'm not going to call you a dumbass...because by now you must feel like an idiot, but heres a little more info for ya:
UVB is responsible for the natural Vitamin D production in your body, this is why many older people tan to stay healthy.
Saying that UV light damages the skin, and therefore you should avoid UV light, is like saying that water causes drowning, and therefore you should avoid water. Just like water, we need UV light to live. So calling UV exposure “damage” is an oversimplification that misrepresents what your body as a whole is designed to do.
I really can't stand misinformed people who insist on what they read must be the right answer, because it has been written. If anyone wants some more information on tanning, send me a PM.
Yes, limited exposure to the sun is healthy in order for your body to receive Vitamin D, but saying that a tan reflects this and is in fact healthy is BS, along with pretty much everything else you spewed:

rofl! Dude are you mental? You expect people on this board to take you at your word and believe some BS you pulled out of your a*s on evolution and the sun being 93 million miles away?eminence said:your repeating the same stuff I just disproved you on earlier......I don't understand what your trying to get at, your just making yourself look like an idiot.
Someone delete this guys posts please.
I think I'll take the word of The American Academy of Dermatology and the FDA over yours, thanks.
Oh and by the way, if you're going to call someone an idiot, at least spell the word "you're" correctly.
"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.
The FDA, AAD, and any other skin care lobbyists are all influenced by pharmaceutical corporations. SPF lotion and outdoor suncare products are a multi-billion dollar industry. They want you to believe this and hire all these "medical experts" for a reason. To make more $$$$$$$....otherwise they would be out of a job if people stopped using their products. Infact these corporations spend millions of dollars a year alone just to put this information out their so people like you spread their "truth."Jaxon said:rofl! Dude are you mental?

I have nothing else to say to you except that you are misinformed. I shouldn't be angry at you for that, so I'll apologize for any offensive comments I directed towards you. Most people are too proud to change their views and admit they are wrong, so if you'd like, send me a PM and I'll answer any questions you have.

You're a goddamn moron and you should be banned for giving out false advice that could potentially lead to someone's skin cancer on this forum, you fvckin sh1t for brains. Moderate sunlight exposure is needed for vitamin D production, no sh1t? Roasting yourself in a tanning booth enough to maintain a tan is FAR, FAR more than you need to produce enough vitamin D. For fvcks sake, you're talking about evolution? Are you really that much of a retard? Enjoy your melanoma years down the line. Of course, you'll probably be stupid enough to blame it on genetics and bad luck when it happens.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
