"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I mean, I'm probably one of the oldest members, and my post count can be compared to the guy who signed up a month ago.

When did they pull this out?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

I dont think post count should be an indication of reputation either.

The rep system is flawed though because people dont use it properly half the time. If I could make a suggestion it would be to replace reputation with thanks/no thanks system.

Rep points is a system to make KBJs feel good about themselves. :p
Motherfvcking Squirrels nailed it!

It's affirmation for your virtual identity and doesn't mean a goddamned thing.

Its something for sub par posters to b!tch and whine about since no one reps them due to their garbage advice.

Aside from those degenerates there is a spinoff website out there made by an ex Sosuave member simpleton and populated by ex Sosuave member sycophantic simpletons who regularly come here to whine, troll and b!tch about their hero and god the head simpleton in charge or rather HSIC (as I now call him) never being able to win over the hearts and minds of the Sosuave forum as Pook once did and also they are angered over their god never being able to take the top spot in reputation on Sosuave.
(The guy can barely crack the top ten here)

Instead Rollo Tomassi succeeded Pook as the top regarded poster on this site (when it comes to the forum's overrall message and direction) and the simpleton and his sycophants can't stand that nor the fact that their god never made number one in reputation points here and so they raid this place and stink it up from time to time in an effort to try and bring back and force us to live in the past with them as well prop their god up and give him the attention and worship he feels he deserves in his thoroughly deluded simpleton mind.

Edit: And I'm not talking to you TheLadiesMan with my post just the jealous kids who care about rep and b!tch about not having any.

"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.

One could argue that the rep points are an attempt to encourage posters to write reputable posts, which will encourage more readers, or traffic, and earn the site owner more money.

They can also be helpful (as on any site that uses them) to gauge the general condition of the board by reading a few posts by hi ranked posters, as more green dots reflect general approval from other posters. It's important to note, however that a plethora of green dots only indicates agreement from several like minded posters, rather than an indication of sound advice.

If you are likely to agree with posters with many rep points, you'll agree with the general advice on the boards, and vice versa.

Just like anything, you can read into them what you'd like.

Or ignore them.

Wherever I am.
Though I could care less about the silly green bars, I actually like the rep system. You get to see what posts resonate most with people, and its cool that they get to send you a little message. My only criticism of the system is that it focuses too much on the poster and not the content. I'd be more interested in seeing which POSTS got the most reps instead of which USERS got them. Hopefully when I have time I will finish my vBulletin hack that does exactly this.

Haha! Good one, KX. Glad to see you are over the past, unlike us poor simpletons :D

Blessings and best of luck to you in '09 :up:

On the set of Lethal Weapon 5 now starring KarmaSutra and TheRealSupreme as vigilante cops that do battle with taiyuu_otoko and his yakuza hentai smuggling crime syndicate. Can anyone say straight to video release?
Video is so 90's. Straight to dvd is the current migration.

I dig this! Supreme and I as booty-cops livin' on the edge!

I'm not sure what happened between Karma and reputation points.
I realized they aren't a representation of who I am as a man. Anyone can gobble up the spittle of other guys and rewrite as their own. If it makes them feel momentarily superior to have a bunch of green under their names, so be it.

I think they're stupid. Remember, I was numero uno here at SoSuave at one time but it was only a mustard fart. It was tangy for a second then forgotten in the breeze.

But I got to thinking that other guys really believe they are their online self and it's a sad psychological state to be in.

I'm not saying anything detrimental against anyone here but it's so freeing to let go of that dumbsh!t.

gawd,..perish the thought that I could ever succeed Pook,..

That's not Pook-worship, it's just, unrealistic,...
 

"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.
