I wish there were some kind of explanation for the reputation system. Mine says I'm "off the scale" is that good or bad?
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Good points, the "rep" system is a joke especially here where chumps far outweigh posters who actually have a clue. Its just going to give the current AFCs a platform to continue parroting bollocks because those who actually put stock into a "reputation" system will be to worried to call them out.Weak_Game said:Looks like the bodybuilding.com forum
Didn't mind the old design but this is fine.
Also like the bodybuilding.com forum's the rep system. I hated it. People will be afraid to post how they really feel about topics when someone with a higher rep can neg them into nothing. People spamming posts of useless crap in hopes someone + reps them. Or begging for reps. Abuse of the rep system and so forth.
I like how i knew who the good posters were from reading the forums based on feedback. Not on some green e-peen they have. So now someone with massive reps here will be a virgin that dosent go out and actually get laid. I liked quality content not quanity feedback from kiss asses.
Now someone can neg rep me for speaking my mind. I dont like it honestly.
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 really liked the age discription also, however alot of folks just lied on it, so sometimes it wasnt so useful.:rockon:Tomatoes said:Doesnt display age with location anymore...i always found that usefull.=
Yeah, and even though I like the fresher format it looks like I'm on some type of MySpace site trolling for teenie-boppers. :nervous:Ricky said:This forum does allow for more discrete viewing which is a real advantage if you want to sneak a peak at work. Not that the girl wasn't an HB9 or so on the screen.....
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Its above your username.shiningshadow said:DISLIKE: There's no date on the messages.
I think this is the best advice ronny boy offered on this site to date!:yes: Just joking ronny.Don Ronny said:Too much white hurts the eyes!

Seriously. Try a darker muted color backgroundthat wont fry our retinas.
Other than that, nice job!
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.
