"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.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I would normally be insulted that people assume that I am a woman, but coming from some of the people here, it doesn't bother me.

If any of you remember, I made a thread over the weekend, which was locked for some unknown reason, in which I clearly stated that I have a GF.
Then keep positng and everyone will forget and think "wait yeah this is a guy".

N, I would post here, but I am worried the reception wouldn't be so warm.

Hi Kamille. Care for a burrito supreme?
It depends. Does it come with mistletoe?

I am thinking you're an LS SS crossbreed, but I still haven't figured out who you are.
 

"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.

Okay, this is confusing. From now on, all female posters from LS should put one of these in their sig:

O
|
+

While all the male LS posters should put up one of these:

________
\ XXXXX /

-\XXXX/-
--\XX/---
---\ /----

"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.

Well I am impressed with how the LoveShack bombarding went.

I saw the thread when it first started by magma, and how a few members were really optimistic about it, and I started thinking about devoting some of my time to "bomb" LS. But I read a few more pessimistic posters, and they dissuaded me not to "waste" my time.

Its good that a few loveshack members are joining the community. But the question I have is, are they mostly male/female members?
Female, man. And they send nudes if you PM them.

I, for the record, never intended the actual result. Nor was an "invasion" a part of any agenda on my part. There was NO AGENDA on my part.

I think the progression of the posts show this to be true. I want to make that clear. The thread was started as a Hey-Looky-Here-type thread. Nothing more.
 

"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.

It really wasn't.

I think it was seen that way because of how Victory Unlimited and some of the other guys took on military terminology and put on a 'battle/war' facade.

I saw it as us just going over there to share our perspectives and question theirs. It kind of blew up in our face :)

To be honest, we did not intend for any LS members to even find out about sosuave. It just so happened that a couple members spilled the beans and let the dogs out.

I for one don't have a problem with conflicting views here and it'd be pretty cool if we could treat them with some respect, and them do the same for us.

Beyond your peripheral vision

I read those posts. I've said in no less than two other posts that this forum is better moderated than loveshack. I've gone on to elaborate that the area where this forum is no better, and perhaps even worse, is the extent to which there isn't an opposing viewpoint regarding gender superiority.

Edit: Let me elaborate. The men there can be braying asses, but on occasion they can also introduce an opposing viewpoint. Read my posts, if you wish. Here, however, there just isn't an opposing viewpoint. When I questioned you, didn't someone post "uh-oh, now he's gonna get it?"

You don't really feel that my posts here are primarily designed as ad homenim attacks or deflections, do you? In fact, by accusing me of poisoning the well instead of providing counterarguments addressing my points, are you not engaging in the very tactic of which you accuse me?
scratch is a keeper. If you are a man, I am "turned on", lol. If you are a chick, I still think you are hot.

There are opposing viewpoints here. Those opposers have had many a thread locked. Stick around. You shall see.

Opposing viewpoint-ers are also labeled women (if they are a man), or men (if they are an iqqi), or trolls, or transgendered people. Welcome. I think if you can look past that, you will like it here.

And the reason you have picked up on that "uh oh" is because, yes, you might be "getting it". Rollo has been criticized for his lack of objectivity as a mod, though everyone grows, and I haven't seen anything to be upset about in awhile. However, I could provide links to update you. :)

I have not read past this post I quoted, can't WAIT to see what happens next, I MUST say!

scratch, stick around. I like you.
 

"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.
