Welp.. I stumbled across this video...
"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.
Why men are happier than women in the 40ties and above...

"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.
Men don’t look back over a life of regret when they enter their late 30’s 40’s like women do. Women have their whole lives ahead of them in their teens and 20’s, and sometimes even into their 30’s and most squander it. Men however get better with age and learn form past experiences and become overall happier as they get more successful as they age.

"Men age like fine wine, whereas women age like milk"
Women past the wall believing they are still desirable, even thinking they are 7's, 8's, 9's , 10's = delusional.

Yes
This mirage will still go on as long as there are weak thirsty simps out there validating and giving these women attention unfortunately...
But the smart ones will eventually figure this mirage out the older they get.

Girl that was a couple of years ahead of me in highschool was a 10... smoking... did modeling. She was also got around with a ton of guys... attention wh0re. If you go to get Facebook page when she was younger every selfie she posted had hundreds of comments “ gorgeous”, “stunning”, “sexy”.... on and on with simps! Now that she’s in her 40’s... she’s still an attention wh0re... but all her pics get a few likes.... usually her relatives now and her girlfriends.... In her 40’s the sun is setting... if not down !

If not the internet miraculously implodes by itself or some hacker blows it up, (Which never will happen); that behavior is here to stay forever. It's the new paradigm and reality which we all need to adjust to it because it won't go away.

Everybody ages, but men typically have better (and more extensive) copes than women do.
Work, hobbies, investing etc vs get some cats (or a dog) and join a book club.

Advice from the old lady:
Now I realize I’m an outlier...but I’m having a blast in my 50s. A straight up blast. Obviously it won’t be like this forever, but that’s Ok. My friends, men I date, and I all have been there done that on the marriage & kids thing, everybody has money and life experience and I’m surrounded by my children, who are well adjusted, and a seriously cool circle of friends that are fun & adventurous and supportive.
Its cool to take a trip for the weekend to hang with a friend (male or female) and enjoy their company. I have a great life & am really blessed & spoiled in many ways.
In the next 6-12 months I’m going to Hawaii to see a player buddy of mine and his gf (I introduced them), to Hong Kong to see my best high school girlfriend & her hubby of almost 30 years, to Austin, to Vegas, and once they open back up to NYC, LA and San Diego.
I’ll also go to VA Beach to see an old ex lover & how his restaurants are doing there. We’ve known each other 30 years this year and I trust him with my life.
So I cannot complain. Life is rich and full of joy. And the people I run with feel the same way, men and women...
The man I’m seeing is recently divorced and he’s like Wow. I should’ve done this 10 years ago...He always has a giant smile on his face & he tells me his friends & clients are like “What’s gotten into you?...You’re happy!!!”
He’s like Yes. Yes I am. Lmao.

"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.
