"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.

"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.

"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.

It isn't the site that's at fault, as I see it - I'm guessing that virtually all of the people who are "completely single" haven't made the changes advised by most of the material out there, and instead have perused some of the articles in the DJB before thinking to themselves "I'll get the balls to start doing this later..."Originally posted by Jariel
Hmmm, that doesn't fill me with much faith in this site.
Anything Else...
i was single untill end of last year.. and i have been in under five relationships in my life.... but that was because i WANTED to be single... if i WANTED to be in a relationship (have a gf) then i could of had MANY gf's in the past... but i think that being single and missioning for new girls every day is alot more fun and entertaining. there is nothing wrong with being single BY CHOICE, but if you WANT to be in a relationship and are NOT, THEn u have reason to worry/seek help
atm i am in a rather serious relationship with a girl that i Do trully like, and i must admit though, that loving someone and have them love u back is alot better than just messing around with different girls every night... and i guess i'v had my share of girls on this earth, so i'll leave some of them for you guys
I'm so kind and sharing, i know.. feel free to thank me anytime Laterz...
Yes, you are most likely right.Originally posted by diablo

In all fairness, since visiting this site and applying some of the things I've learned, the attention from women and my ability to handle them has improved tremendously. Sometimes I lose sight of that.

Just because I'm single and not dating doesn't mean I don't get laid.Hmmm, that doesn't fill me with much faith in this site.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
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.
one of the girls I mess around with a bit, but i'm still single
you're missing a couple categories
haha i'm glad im not one of the completely singles
thanks sosuave!! lol
