"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.

Im trying to get a new voice mail message for my phone because Im tired of the one i got. My current one is: "Hi, this is qwerety if this is my parents, I need money, if this is one of my friends, you owe me money, if this is a creditor, I don't have any money, and if this is a girl, I have plenty of money."
Now maybe one of you likes that so you can use it but I've had it for too long and I wanna switch, so can any of you guys give me a good message to change it to?
Another thing, I've been filling out job app. and I put my cell # on there as a alternate line, so is it even a good idea to have a C&F voice mail message, or should I leave it basic, in case I get a call back for a job interview?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Hi. This is John:
If you are the phone company, I already sent the money.
If you are my parents, please send money.
If you are my financial aid institution, you didn't lend me enough money.
If you are my friends, you owe me money.
If you are a female, don't worry, I have plenty of money.

its your cell phone, i think the job wouldnt leave a message on it if you gave them a home phone, just if tehy wanted to get intouch with your right away.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Again, You care too much. the fact you care about having a suave "answering message" means you are too needy for female attention.

You ever seen a dude who looks like he's trying too hard when he dresses. A lot of guys on here try to put on some kind of show when they're talking to girls. (oooh.. I'm gonna load her with all the ****y/funny lines i can think of, I'm gonna try and make her laugh every second then she's sure to love me"). They've got it all wrong. This falls in line with that. Although they might be thinking they are doing somethin effective they're not. Women sense this neediness.

A man who is attractive to females is not obsessed like that. He's just about having fun. Do you think Colin Farell purposely puts a suave voice message on his phone or would he just put something on that's fun to enjoy himself. Donald Trump? Brad Pitt? They dont give a **** its just an answering machine message! Its superficial. It's also not someone realizing that fact "that cool guys dont care" and using it to pretend he doesn't care.

Men who are successful with women do not have things like this phasing their mind. They aren't trying to put on a show.

Besides if they are calling you in the first place or returning your calls it really doesn't matter. ;)
 

"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.

Think there was a post about this recently and whilst i really dont think it is too important the one i liked best was:

"Hi this is X's fridge. His Ansaphone is on holiday right now but if you leave a message i will write it on a post-it and stick it to my door."

Not too popular when my landlord, etc. calls.
