"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.

Woman eats couch cushions

"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.

I saw that. Weird.

Did you see the other ones?

1)Woman that eats toilet paper
2)Woman in her 20's that sucks her thumb 24/7
3)Woman who complusively pulls her hair out
4)Woman who sleeps with her hair dryer (could be dangerous/fatal depending on what she uses the hair dryer for)

This stuff is all derivative of some type of obsessive compulsive disorder.

I did the same thing when I had a scalp infection. It's not as much psychological as it is physical.

Well, I hope it grew back for you brother. Funny about this chick though. She pulled it out and ate it. Said she liked the taste of the folicles. Go figure.

why is there always threads with crazy women in it in this section?
each time you see a crazy women/make themselves ridiculous/are laughable on tv you post it here?
why so..??
 

"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.

Really? I looked at the first page of Anything Else which has like 30 threads and it has

-one crazy woman who is suing because of a "texting accident"
-one thread on crazy male creepers
-one thread on the crazy things men do when they have no women in their lives

Nice try though.

People see what they want to see.

There is a lot of different stuff in this section. It's pretty telling that you only notice 2 posts out of 50. Best advice I can offer you during your stay here - don't take anything posted to heart, this forum will chew up and spit out someone who is too sensitive.

Now you could ask why I post threads about crazy b-tches. That would be mainly due to the fact that I just dumped my insane girlfriend of 3 years and right now I think all women are nuts. It's just a phase - I'll get over it :)

oh really?
what about the thread about teh women falling into a fontain,
what about the very glorious one making fun of the women with this disease that contrains her to eat all the time.
and then this one...
It's like a big trend. It's like posting videos of retarded poeple doing weird stuffs on a forum that talk about how to grow a mentally retarded kid. Video's making fun of black poeple on a republican forum^^doesn't look innocent.

pretty disturbing...

-the woman falling into the fountain is the same woman who is suing, I mentioned her already, you can't count her twice.
-wait, first you said threads about "crazy women" and now you expand it to include women with genetic diseases. not the same thing.
-and then this one is already counted.

There are just as many threads bashing men as well. Nice try again. Maybe 3rd's the charm?

Okay so that's 3 threads you mentioned, less than 5% of the posts, which means you are exaggerating.

I admit it, right now I have issues with women that I am sorting out. A lot of guys are here for the same reason. Most of what is posted here is not advice, it's catharsis for the poster to get through a difficult time, so there will be some fallout, resentment and even some misogyny at times. If these are the only posts you "always" see, then I can guarantee you will not enjoy your stay here.

Give us a little credit. Some of us have issues, but most of us are here because we love women and are looking for success in that area of our lives.
 

"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.
