"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

So apparently the facebook community is going crazy because the site is scheduled to shut down tonight at midnight (March 15th). I'm not really a fan of social networking but it should be interesting if the site actually stays down. Nothing will ever beat good ol face to face and hopefully no more "Facebook/Relationship trouble post"

Your thoughts?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I feel like this rumor goes around every 2 months. Facebook will take over the world before it shuts down.

Heh, Facebook should really do that on April 1st.

For half the day, there should be a "We're Closed" sign on the front page and nobody can login.
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

^^They should do that and then leave it up for 5 years. So everyone can learn how to talk to each other again...

I WISH someone would hack that turd website and shut it down.
I'll get a date with a HB10 before Facebook gets taken down. They provide a service tailor made for scalability, they expect heavy traffic. On top of that, their servers are not on a single place, I assure you. See what happened when those ignorant punks at anonymous tried to take Amazon down, the same will happen with Facebook (zero impact).

LOLWUT?

Facebook is one of the biggest advertisers in the online world next to google. Facebook won't "shutdown" until people refuse to buy products via facebook. I've been studying how to market and sell products on facebook and trust me, its big business.

It won't "shut down" but its not gonna stay at the top forever. Myspace was enormous too and is pretty much a joke now. As long as Facebook keeps switching things up to allow more advertisements, infringements on user info and privacy, and your Aunt Judy keeps commenting on your wall posts, its getting closer and closer to an alternative picking up steam.

Youtube is another giant I see going away soon. Nobody wants to wait around for a 15 second advertisement before they see a video.

I predict an incredible fall for Youtube over the next year, and I wouldn't give Facebook another 3 years.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Google, Youtube, and Facebook aren't going anywhere anytime soon. They are partially taxpayer funded so revenue streams aren't as important to those corporations.

It may be a "joke" when you consider who uses what for social networking, but the MySpace company is still doing damn well for itself. Sure, they have dipped, but they are by no means in trouble of closing down.

What we need to do is create a social stigma. Wear T-shirts that say "FACEBOOK SUCKS!" and have blackberry burnings....make it uncool...

Again, those sites certainly will still be around but other alternatives will rise above them. I'd put money on it.

Pre-video ads on Youtube will crush its popularity.

Facebook is for 45 year old Anglo women with one egg left and the young confused boys who love them. Seriously. Nobody is using that site anymore. Anyone who is anyone has moved on. Hell, even tumblr is so last year. I suspect the same people who use facebook now were the ones who were using myspace two years ago! LOSERS!
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Haha, I laughed at this because it is so out of touch with reality.

I recently bit the bullet and joined facebook, and quite literally everyone I know is on there (by which I mean 95% of people under the age of 50), with a few notable exceptions.

I still don't get the rave about facebook. Sure it's a great medium to stay in touch with people you otherwise could not be fcked putting the effort in with, but really, all those hours stalking people and playing those ****ty little web games? hit the fcking gym.

I actually use FB for people I don't want to spend too much time on but need to keep a civil relationship with. Just a little status update, a like on their comment (which I use a script for), and that keeps my superficial relationships in good standing. No more having to talk on the phone or in person and acting like I'm interested. FB actually frees up my offline time for people I actually want to hear from and be around.

I for one would like to know how they are "partially taxpayer funded."
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
