"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I understand that people need vacations and all but everytime I have been to this site in the past month it is filled with threads that should be locked and the OPs should be banned.

The entire first page of the AE forum is filled with kkk kkkk kkkk kkkk kkk threads right now.

The entire DJ discussion forum is filled with new guys fighting other new guys and the same few people posting bad advice. I opened up a four page thread earlier that is filled with the same two or three people flaming each other.

Maybe its time for this board to be temporarily shut down again, or at least nuked with locked threads and banned members. This really is just out of control at this point; and if this site stays this way then who is going to stick around here?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Personally, I think it's great.
I'm curious here. What drives you to want to troll, spam, and flamebait a forum?

Is life that boring that you turn to the internet to find an outlet for being socially retarded without human interactions?

What is it that drives you to find an internet forum with people you dont know and troll it?

who cares just ignore him and he will go away. Posting this, you are giving him what he wants
 

"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.

Actually, there were ~30 "kkk kkk kkk" threads in each forum. AE, Tips, H&F, DJD, Wingman, Mature Man, HS, etc. That you only noticed them in AE shows that action is being taken quickly and efficiently to rid the board of troublemakers. Unfortunately, mods do not have the power to ban; that is something that only the admin can do. Also, and this is unfortunate as well, the admin has a life (well, we all do actually) and can't sit at the computer 24/7 waiting for hot spots to pop up. I know that I was checking the forums for bad posts before I went to work yesterday when I found the "kkk"-fest, and as a result of having to delete 60-90 threads was 10 minutes late to work.

If you find a thread that you believe has gotten out of control, and a moderator has not yet responded to it, this forum has a beautiful feature called "Report This Post". Click the button, type the reason that you think it should be reviewed, and a mod will take a look at it. However, if that's too much work for you to do, then maybe you shouldn't be complaining. :rolleyes:
