"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.

From my experience if you aren't getting laid in college it sure as he!! won't get any easier when you get out.
Its a lot easier for me. I was an out of shape chump with 0 social skills in college and 3 years out I'm still not where I need to be but I'm so much better. Still kick myself sometimes for not getting my **** together a few years earlier because i missed out on a LOOOOOOT
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

The dating game here is strongly resembles capitalism run amok. Plus, you have to be in tight cliques to meet women here anyway. Being proper black guy does not help my chances here either.

It cracks me up because I saw this topic (and the video linked in it) back when you first started it. Now every time I see Burroughs referring or linking to a topic, about 9 times out of 10 it's this one. It's like an advertisement! Actually, the funny part is I predict it every time. The topic is a good one though and definitely worth reading if you haven't. And the video is worth watching. If you don't read the topic or watch the video, you could end up like THIS GUY!

"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.

While this may be true, it does no good to stick with the status quo, make up excuses, and complain about it. It's like saying NG's finish last - while remaining an NG, and complaining about it. If you don't like it, if it's not working, if you're not getting the results you desire - you gotta do something about it. Anything you want in life requires effort and some change. You may not like it, it may not seem fair, it might not be how you wanted or envisioned things to be, but that's how it is. Gotta deal and adapt.

They don't, not even close. Stop thinking so negatively.
