"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

I mean the general discussion forum. Where have all the threads gone??

"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.

all the threads are there, the link on the main page doesn't work

if you click on general discussion, then look up at the URL there's a place where it says number=1

change it to number=2 and then they'll show up

link needs to be fixed

Doing that (if I understood you correctly) puts me in the high school forum.

Yes I just realized that. My mistake.

"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.

I knew it! Someone must not have liked my last post and nuked the whole forum. Whoever ya are, you really went too far this time!

Sigh. All gone. All those great posts, and now they're gone forever. (ok, just a little Sunday afternoon melodrama.)

But seriously now...

It's the filtering apparently. If you try to filter it down to the last ten days, or even the last year it chokes. But if you select to show ALL posts, then you get the threads.

Probably the same issue as the search feature which has been choking recently. Maybe the database software can't handle that many threads. Too bad, because in the scheme of things 5800 threads is not all that much. My usenet newsreader has over 100,000 searchable threads on my hard drive.

Yep it works when you choose "show all topics." The Turner Ohvur post has thousands of replies. It's written by a guy called no

The "Turner Ohver" post might be messing things up, or it might just be a symptom.

When you said it had thousands of replies I thought someone played a prank and posted a super long thread that mucked up the system.

But actually it lists as having 2 BILLION replies which is impossible--it would take several lifetimes to post that many replies so it might just be a symptom of something going wrong in the system.

I hope the sosuave administrator is working on this.

"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.

I've found the post that has caused the problem.

Here it is:
http://www.sosuave.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/012813.html

I don't know WHY this thread caused the problem, I only know that it DID. I hope this helps.

The link that you posted was intended to be the one that I posted, but got truncated. It then got all goofy. Who knows why.

No. The Search Function is completely dead if you try searching the “Don Juan Discussion” forum. It works in the other forums.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Yes, everything looks normal aside from a few posts by confirmed AFCs.

Search is working again. When the index file for a particular forum reaches a certain size, the search function stops working in that forum.

I'll try to find a solution for this problem, but right now we'll just have to keep the main DJD forum limited to somewhere around 42 or 43 thousand posts.

Now how are we supposed to get by with only 42 or 43 thousand posts?
