Just curious what race are you?
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.
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.

It means Latino, of course. And before anyone says that's an ethnicity not a race, I say it's very odd then that you can always tell by appearance who is Latino in Los Angeles and who isn't. To be even more exact it should say "South American Indian/Mestizo" I suppose.seagull said:Where's the option for mixed? And Spanish is a nationality, not a race.

Should be Jewish and Arab in the poll also, but what the hell. Funny that other groups are so far represented in a higher percentage than their part of the Western population, I would have thought it would follow demographics fairly evenly. Let's see if it stays that way. Then again the forum isn't only for Westerners.
That's hilarious. It's the only way to go? Ok, I'll be black from now on. You convinced me.Cry For Love said:Black Power, bruthas. Its the only way to go, the natural PU race, with all due respect to our white and asian hoodies
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.
stop your b!tching and this is the problem with race. Besides it don't freaking matter if your white, black, or a smurf (proud smurf right here), what matters is the results of your game AND your characterMaxtro said:I'm half American white and half Cuban, yet I can only choose one...

wow such ignorance, hispanic/latino is not a race and not all the people in southamerica, mexico, central america, look the sameVeridin said:It means Latino, of course.

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
