"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.

One thing that I have found that really works is the silent treatment. If a girl makes a mistake (Mine started to like another guy), you dump em, tell them you want it all or nothin. Then just ignore em. Sometimes it takes a week for em to come back. Sometimes it takes a couple years, but most of the time they do. And plus, if they don't come back, then you really don't need em. And if you gf fvcked up real good the first time and made a big mistake, when they come back, you said said "hell no bltch, I don't want your as*." its fun to see their reaction. So ya, tell me if you all have tried this method, because it works for me everytime. the girl I broke up with a week ago just came crawlin back today. it was great
 

"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.

heh, I use it all the time w/ my g/f if she does something that is disrespectful or of the likes. I'll just ignore her and not say anything to her or maybe walk off or somethin. She'll come back immediately and apoligize. Its great.

you ever hear about how guys get all pissed off because women never tell them how they feel? they just start acting snobbish towards them, like little girls? That's how you guys are acting, not like men, not like women, like little girls. A male doesn't ignore a problem, he lets the person know about it, and if it persists then you kick the person to the curb.

Nice AFC advice. Why would you want to stop doing something that WORKS, regardless of your personal opinions.

I'll ignore girls every once in a while. Its called reasoning, if your girl starts talking about cute guys and then you start ignoring her it doesn't take much to put two and two together, you don't really need a comfirmation if theres enough evidence to support your conclusion

Sometimes ignoring someone is the best way to get the point across.

Totally agree. Dont talk, take action! In this case walk away, or the silence treatment so the little broad would learn her lesson also reminding her whos the daddy.

Trust me.

It's not if you win or if you lose, it's how you play the game.

Never truer words.

So if you want to be mad, be mad, it's a great technique, works wonders. If you aren't in it for the end results, but rather just to have fun, then you won't be such an emo bit<h.

I am of course not judging anyone. Do whatever you want.

Just saying, have fun doing it.
 

"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.
