"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.

"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.

The things I will not do for a living are as follows:

Buy things
Sell things
Hire and fire people as the primary activity
Comfort and/or advise people with problems
Guard, defend, or watch over anything or anyone
Clean up after anyone but myself
Anything involving wearing a suit or working in an office environment
Any occupation that requires me to be anything other than myself
Any occupation that involves the manipulation of anything living
Dealing with the general public

And yes there are jobs that dont involve any of these things.
I knew what I wanted to do along time ago and Ive been doing it for about the last 6 years. And I make adult sized money.

"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.

Hey, that's some really nice artwork. I draw some myself...you're really good.

I just wanted to mention...on the Flash navigation you have in the upper left, you need to enlarge the "Hit" states for the buttons. In other words, when you rollover them, at the moment it only "hits" right on the text. It's just a common mistake, I used to do this too...just make a nice box around each button and drop it into the "Hit" frame...it makes it much easier for people to select the buttons.

I was just joking about the morgue thing...I'm actually a webdesigner/student.

Good luck with your works!
