"I just moved here from Florida."

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'm not gonna make this another "woe is me" posts but I am seriously getting sick of the game. I had been meeting a lot of girls the last month or two, but it really sucks to find out most of them are freaking stupid and boring. I was doing the whole running game thing and then after I make out with a girl or get some action and what not I feel like I just kissed a piece of trash. I'd rather find a girl I can click with and actually have fun being around than getting action any day of the week.
 

"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.

Do that and start using a different type of bait... It's frustrating but it's a fact of life.

not everybody is serious about a relationship, and going deep and stuff........when you meet girls, some just wanna keep you as a fvck buddy, then some wanna keep you as a fvck buddy and get to know you and help you personally. If all you are getting is fvck buddies, keep them, and meet their friends.. the key is attraction, obviously you know about that, so just keep going through the chicks until you come across one thats serious....you are okay buddy.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

game sucks but not comparatively

Yes, the game seems to suck when you're not getting exactly what you want. However, compared to paying child support &
alimony it's pretty damn cool.

I know how you feel... I meet lots of girls and I like them for like 3 weeks then they get really old to me. Very few I feel are actually worth my time despite the fact that they are hot and seem "normal" or whatever. I felt the way you did for about 2 years, but I felt those emotions a lot more severely.

For instnace:
There was this really hot girl that all my friends wanted. THey all were trying to game her but none ended up "getting" with her. I didn't try b/c there are other girls and I didn't want to compete with my friends who obviously like her so much. A year later I see her at a party, still looking hot. I approached her and talked with her for like 20-30 mins and it went really well so i got her number. We ended up hooking up that week (just kissing and feeling up). I started to think this girl was pretty cool/intriguing. Well I ended up fvcking her and she would tell me how much she liked me and how different i was etc etc, supplicating like crazy to me and I lost ALL interest in her. After that night I didn't even want to call her/talk to her ever again. I just lost all interest in her... and this type of thing has happened A LOT of times with girls... WEIRD

I have only met 2 girls in my life who I REALLY LIKED. 1 got away (she was a SHB and I didn't have enough game to keep her... dudes hit on her EVERYWHERE we went together... it was a lot of ****ing effort). girl #2 and I dated for a while but she goes to school in a different state now so we are friends (I don't have feelings for her anymore)...

What I realised though was I was putting to much effort/expecations on meeting girls all the time. I took 6 months off from even caring if i hooked up with a girl and focused on ME. (I still hooked up with girls but I rarely thoght about actively sarging besides when I really was intrigued by a girl). I learned more in those 6 months about myself/life/learning stuff than I had in the 2 yrs before that. I feel as if now I am reborn and had been sort of "coasting" in the past. NOt really taking time to reflect/learn/etc. I am happy all the time, never thinking negatively, and life is so different now (I was still super happy back then, but its just different now that I understand A LOT of things I didn't back then). Now whenever I go out I LOVE IT. FVCKING LOVE IT.

Pm me if u want I am rambling now, but I could talk forever on this
