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.
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.
and here i thought you ware coolOriginally posted by Reagan
Sometimes I jerk off... sometimes.
this is ridiculous... do you know what pretty means? do you understand the biology behind attraction? women are competing against eachother - but how do they win the competition? by landing the ALPHA, the best possible candidate for reproduction.Originally posted by tseluca
What about my answer didnt you understand
Girls compete to be pretty because they want to be the prettiest
The same way guys compete physically
Why do guys do that? Because they want to show they are the best
I can see why you guys spend your lives on this forum, you really have no clue
Fantastic answer! It goes right down into pure natural instinct: survival of the fittest.but how do they win the competition? by landing the ALPHA, the best possible candidate for reproduction.
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.
well then you must be really really hot.Originally posted by tseluca
I ca walk into any bar at any given night and leave what whatever man I choose, he doesn't have to say a word.
If I wanted to I could walk up to some guy take him by the hand and say come on 10 times out of 10 he will follow me, no questions asked
Yes, I choose who I date

yea i agree, her argument is rubbish.Originally posted by spider_007
i have yat to see something intaligent come out of her
which are?Originally posted by Reagan
Actually, I got her opinion via email and I have to say, it's identical to my views.
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.
You have no ****ing idea *****, most guys workout for themselves so they feel good mentally and physically - SELF IMPROVEMENTOriginally posted by tseluca
Guys spend endless hours in the gym trying to look good enough to get women
Guys spend endless hours on the web trying to learn tricks to pick up women
Guys spend valuable time working overtime to try and get money to pick up women
What do they do when they get that money. Spend it on a woman or on things to try and impress one
You men need to come back to earth
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.
I'm not even going to read the replies, because I have one of my own--and it may already be here, but what the hell:Originally posted by tseluca
but lets remember the reason each and everyone of you is here is to pick me up. Maybe not me personally, but women.
You come on here and bash us, talk bad about us, say we don't know what we want,
But you spend an awful lot of time and effort trying to figure out how to pick us up.
I mean really think about it. Look at the number of posts and the number of members her. This whole site. Dedicated to picking up a woman like me who has no idea what she wants.
Funny if you ask me
and how much time do women take to get ready for a single date. maybe not endless, but enough to make men wait--and men don't like to wait--at least I don't.Originally posted by tseluca
