"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.

"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.

Hardest class? :crackup:

Anyway, try and be original with your speeches. When the teacher says "describe how to do something you like," don't be like nearly everyone else and say "ok, this is how you bake brownies." Do something you like. "This is how you hit a baseball" or something.

Talk to the people in your class too. Before or after is ideal. If you become friends with them, you can help each other out with projects. Hell, you can even get that hot chick to come spend some time with you...Maybe you can help her write her "how to give head" speech! :whistle:

Be original, speak clearly, and have fun.

Well it wasnt that bad today. I did abit nervous but not that much, We just had to tell 3 "facts" and throw in a fake one then someone would volunteer to guess which was fake. I got my buddies in there so its all cooler.


Ahahha Eternal I might do that but none of them are really hot.

I took a speech class last semester for concurrent enrollment. I was really nervous at first but the key is to maintain eye contact with everyone in the room. Don't just look at certain people and leave it at that. Make sure you don't make your note card a security blanket and hold onto it for dear life. Use gestures and motions to make yourself look more free and comfortable.

What I thought helped best in my speeches was when I added humor to certain things. Nothing makes you feel more relaxed than hearing the whole class laugh at something you just said. Make sure that you make your topic interesting to at least most of the kids in the class. Nobody wants to hear a speech about how celery grows :p

Speech will help you in soo many areas. This is an awesome class to take if your confidence isn't exactly too high. Good luck with 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.

This is really tangential to the topic, but it doesnt warrant another topic on its own

Today in speeches for who is running for class president for next year one of the canidates started off his speech like so

" I am going to keep this speech like a girls skirt. Long enough to cover the important parts, but short enough to keep you interested"

Thought that was amazing
