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.
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.
is an excerpt from:A. Over a period of at least 6 months, recurrent and intense sexual
fantasies, sexual urges, or sexual behaviors in association with 3 or
more of the following 5 criteria:
A1. Time consumed by sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors repetitively

A4. Repetitive but unsuccessful efforts to control or significantly
reduce these sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors.
A5. Repetitively engaging in sexual behaviors while disregarding the

B. There is clinically significant personal distress or impairment in
social, occupational or other important areas of functioning
associated with the frequency and intensity of these sexual fantasies,
urges or behaviors.
C. These sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors are not due to the direct
physiological effect of an exogenous substance (e.g., a drug of abuse
or a medication)
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
You must exhaust yourself @ day time, if you have trouble sleeping at night you've already screwed yourself.Solomon said:day 3

Boilermaker said:You guys need a psychiatry primer.
Bottom-line is: In order for masturbation to be a sexual disorder that is outlined in DSM-V (like the proposed hyper-sexuality disorder in the following paper), it needs to meet the following criteria:

http://www.dsm5.org/Documents/Sex and GID Lit Reviews/Paraphilias/KAFKAHD.pdf
Now Solomon et. al. must ask themselves whether they are at all close to meeting the criteria outlined above. If the answer is no, you are doing self-torture for no reason, and losing your confidence in the process - because you keep failing a futile challenge.
The key is functioning in a lot of newly proposed disorders in psychiatry. IF you are functioning, your diagnosis could be different from a guy who exactly engages in the same behavior, but cannot function.
I think this is the reason for many compulsory masturbators, masturbation is no longer a sexual release but a stress reliever.A2. Repetitively engaging in sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors in
response to dysphoric mood states (e.g., anxiety, depression,
boredom, irritability).
A3. Repetitively engaging in sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors in
response to stressful life events.
I work a office job....Dedication said:You must exhaust yourself @ day time, if you have trouble sleeping at night you've already screwed yourself.
You can also choose to sleep 2-3 hours later, not ideal but i don't see another option. Thats how i always dealt with it if i ****ed up @ day time.
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.

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.
