"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

Why does the USA military waste so much money?

"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.

a big chunk of it is cause politicians get re-elected by bringing home the pork (ie, contracts, bases, etc). Another big chunk is "hiding" the spook budget, but you are right we spend 10x too much on our military. No country is ever going to invade or even directly attack, ANY country has nuke missile subs!

the military is, has been and always will be middle class walfare
 

"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.

Whether you like the troops or not, whether you agree with our mission or our behavior when on the battlefield...it is all immaterial. Each and every soldier in our military VOLUNTEERS to do a potentially hazardous job as a means to serve this country.Our troops, and our guns is what has allowed liberals like you to keep spouting their nonsense......Where did you serve, cupcake?

With all due respect, go fvck yourself.

I agree, but I feel sorry for the men and women who enlist........then I watch these commercials where these guys limbs are missing or they just staring into nothingness and begging the people to donate money

why is the army not providing these guys with healthcare and rehab?


all you are doing when you enlist is protecting the rich men resources, and invading countries for these rich men.

Joining the army and fighting for America benefits you none. I know loads of veterans who will admit they was better off not joining


YawataNoKami go vomit some more semen

I'm living and breathing because I choose to, I'm tired of this propaganda bull$hit that been fed to people for years about, your able to do so and so because so and so went to the army

that's funny because America been losing wars since Vietnam.

I want to ask you one question........

you served your country, but how as the army and this country served you?

The men and women that serve in the U.S. Armed forces think about things other than their pitiful selves. You know nothing of what they do, how they think or why they serve.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

they served because they've been brainwashed about their "country" since they were toddlers.
