"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.

Playing wow at home is better than doing nothing at all.

At best it will distract you from your deppresion.
 

"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.

As a person who has actually never played WOW, I can't really understand the fascination with the fantasy world... one thing that sort of ruins fantasy for me is, where do these people go to the bathroom? Why are there never bathrooms in a castle? That always ruins it for me.

That said, I have played a bit of Star Wars online during its run and that was quite cool, I manufactured low quality laser rifles until I found out that I would have to spend all my time creating low quality rifles and other garbage to eventually craft a droid... the time sink made it boring and I gave up after a month. I have an interest in KOTOR: Online but we can't play it over here in the PRC (LucasArts decision).

if I were to play an MMO again, I would play EVE: Online. Comes across as more of a business sim, meets star wars. I have sunk numerous hours into single player RPGs but I need a goal to focus on, I don't think MMO's have that... there is not really an end goal or much a story to progress through. Always preferred Dungeons and Dragons to online stuff as you are a group of friends playing through a friend created world.

I wonder what the difference is in interests for gamers.

Anyway not harping on anyone for their hobbies, playing MMO's is vastly more interesting than sitting around with a half naked chick you just nailed, watching a movie that you really couldn't care less about because you are just trying to get her to leave. OR reverse, watching a movie that you don't really care about because you want a chick to get naked... so much wasted time. If only we could play MMO's and have women take their clothes off when they are ready for sex. WAIT... that DOES work but you have to live in Asia.

I'm living proof guys, my wife waits around for sex, reading her novels until AFTER I'm finished playing my games.

Raid on.
