"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.

Being with someone doesnt make you happy, it just makes you happier.

Their are advantages to being single:
1. You can do what you want.
2. You can fool around with as many woman as you want.
3. You can have a lot of fun.
4. You can go out anywhere.
5. You can spend time with your friends more.
6. You can focus on your own goals.
7. You can make time to improve yourself.
8. You dont have to listen to any problems.

One day you going to be married and these things I listed you wont have. So enjoy it while you can obviously there is a limit to how far you can go, but my suggestion is to keep being single and having fun till you meet someone special.
 

"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.

Why have one when you can have ten?

The time for one woman is the time when you decide that a particular ONE woman is different from the others and you can maybe love her.

The mindset that you should have ten women if you could is absolutely absurd and makes the dating situation in america all the more worse. Men--You cannot complain about the excesses of feminism when you yourself constantly stick to this mindset. Nevermind that women tended to be attracted to alpha males and whatnot, if you want to lead a good life with women, you must have a mindset that is conductive to leading a great FAMILY life as opposed one in which everything is a matter of sex.

having one hot chick with incredible personality that'll stick with you forever and ever through whatever hard **** is way worth than having ten girls at the same time!~
 

"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.

You must be a woman who is confused about what that mindset means. That mindset means that I can enrich the lives of ten beautiful women and have great meaninful fun experiences with them, as opposed it just one woman. It is my choice whether or not my relationships are geared towards starting a family or having a comfortable and pleasurable time with someone I enjoy being with.

Who said there isn't room for both?

Every now and then it's good to have a woman who will love you and you can love back. But most relationships don't last long.

And then you're single again.. for awhile hopefully. You don't have to swing all your life and you don't have to be hooked to a chain all your life. Mix it up, try both sides of the circle.

Good point, WC2...

In my own experience, I'll do things that a lot of gals will disagree with, and want to discourage. I'm getting another degree. If I started this in a serious relationship, she may discourage that. I was dating someone when I started, but more as friends, and she still had issues with it, lol.

But, what getting together with a woman does offer is, companionship, togetherness, and, not to be overlooked.. growth. You learn how to be with someone, work out issues. You learn how to be more sociable, think of someone other than yourself, give up a reasonable amount of your time, open up, etc etc etc.

Don't shy away from either one.. single, or together.

Re:

This is a very good post. Although I've been single for 11 years now, I could definitely relate to some of the advantages the original poster listed.
