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.
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.
I quoted a news storyDie Hard said:No man, the elite has made a deal with extraterrestrials to wipe us out, didn't you know?
Seriously, you're a looney and need to stop reading al this conspiracy theory bullsh!t.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
This.zekko said:I'm not going to panic every time the media or the CDC brings out another virus to scare us with. But I'm not going to sit here and happily trust that the elite have all our best interests at heart either.
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.
Specifically this is done in the scientific community. The importance of work is greatly exaggerated in order to get more funding. Every lab does it.taiyuu_otoko said:That story quoted the CDC, a huge behemoth of an international agency if there ever was one.
Now there's two possibilities for this:
1) Some guy at the CDC found a few germs and is crying bloody murder so they'll have an excuse to expand their budget and influence
2) It's a secret plot that they're using to kill us all
Why not both? I mean, they had flu shots that were fake...why not make more problems...? I'll search for links latertaiyuu_otoko said:That story quoted the CDC, a huge behemoth of an international agency if there ever was one.
