Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

I'm not out to start a riot, just being curious.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Probably has to to with this thread http://www.sosuave.net/forum/index....-called-to-tell-me-hes-not-doing-well.235398/.

He was pissing on the OP when she created a thread just to describe that her father was ill and likely to pass. I dug into LiveJailed. Subsequently, all his posts were deleted.

Frankly, any person who speaks to another who is grieving in that manner is a low-quality piece of crap. I could only hope his ban is permanent.

If it's anything like the latest actions of moderators, probably has to do with insults or name-calling.

People get banned for one reason only: Repeated breaking of the rules after several warnings. At that point we mods discuss the situation for a fairly extended period of time and come to a consensus as to the course of action that will benefit the site and its members. The rules are posted as stickies in most subforums, for those who don't know.

Got it. I know sometimes I can go a little off the rails so to speak as well lol. Do you guys usually send out PMs saying the following? "Hey, Tenacity, tone it down a bit on X, Y, or Z."

I know like some forums I don't participate on anymore, like the City Data Forum, the moderators will just temp ban you without a warning, without saying what you did wrong, etc. And that forum is very liberal and also very feminist/gynocentric, so of course what I have to say will PISS off the vast majority of people, even the moderators, which I believe leads them to ban people they "disagree" with.

Yes we send out warnings, the mods here are actually very lenient when it comes to bans. You kind of have to try to get banned in my opinion.
