"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.

What happened to deesade?

"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.

You know what, **** it. I'm out. I don't have the patience to come back here again. Pook did say that you had to leave this place eventually. I guess my time is now. Thanks for everything guys, I've learned a lot from here and changed a lot, this place truly did change my life. Now it's time time toughen the **** up and face reality again. I might come back here in few years time, or maybe in a week, or maybe never again. But I think I've learned what I could from here. Thanks again guys. Always get stronger, and be great.


I'm the ****ing greatest. No wait, I'm not the greatest, I'm the double greatest! And don't any of you ever forget it!

Deesade did not get banned. He left on his own. In fact, he went from one of the highest on the moderator shvt list to one of the most turned around we have seen. @ImTheDoubleGreatest! Hate to see you go. But you are one of the lucky ones who found sosuave at early age. So you might have got the benefits already. I wasn’t that lucky at your age. Didn’t get it till my 30s and we old guys take a longer time to catch up. Good luck man.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
