Also, what are some good countries to move to permanently?
"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.
What languages are best to learn for a US citizen who wants to leave the US?

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Before you decide to move, you need to do your homework. What are your reasons for moving? The grass is not always greener on the other side. Most countries are in worse shape than the US, and some countries like Germany and China are going to hell in a handbasket.
Serbia, Georgia and Malaysia consistently rank high in freedom and affordability. I really liked the former yugoslavian countries, they're affordable and gorgeous, but they're also pretty corrupt.
For languages to learn, I always study the one that opens up the most number of related languages.
Spanish has the most speakers of the romance languages so it's the best one to learn there. Italian, Portuguese and Spanish are about 90% mutually intelligible. French is a distant relation
Russian is the best slavic language to learn because the grammar is about as complex as they come, and you also have to learn the cyrillic alphabet. It's also about 50% mutually intelligible with most of the languages in eastern europe.
German will help you understand the nordic languages, but only marginally.
French is always a solid option as well, it will help you in the Caribbean and Africa.

Bro, bad idea. Israel Vs. arab world will self annihilate each other. I mean, pre Gaza that be a legit advice, but post Gaza, I think everyone is aware of what's coming.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

There was this heartland theory. Back pre 2014 coup it was all over internet and I could find it on google images. Map. And also PDF with description. From memory the basics of it was like so, there was a map showing WW3, and it said, if war goes over ukraine then WW3 will happen in the middle east, across Syria, Israel, Egypt. We see exactly something similar to that right now. You have new world order developing, with BRICS, there will soon be new reserve currency. So the next best place for economic development is Russia, China, and South East Asia bellow China with parts of Oceania, South America, and Africa. Best languages are Chinese and Russian. As far as where to move, it's a hard one. If safety is concern, no place is safe, because radiation can reach any part of the world, eventually. There will be left a golden billion, people that have certain resistance to radiation. Choose a coutry with good medicine. Russia is pretty good in this sense, first to come up with COVID vaccine. China is behind, they had quaranteens long past COVID was all over in Russia.

DaFuq people thinking?
It takes at least a couple years of intense study (3-4 hours per day) to be conversationally fluent at a basic level.
If you spent that much time and effort developing your social skills you could stay where you are and clean up.

Do people ever leave their YouTube guru moms basement safe space?
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
