"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

A lot of women I hear refuse to date men that meet men, give them their number, the guy calls her...makes plans, and flakes.

He calls back 6 months later, pretending nothing ever happened...as if their conversation took place a few days ago.

I am guessing these are the games that men play with women?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

They refuse to date men who don't show up?

I'm pretty sure girls don't give out their number and pine for 6 months for a man to call.

So, no, these are not the games that men play with women.

ThisNThat.......I've been onto you from the start. You are a female posing as a male.
You ask way too many questions trying to gain insight into the male mind. In the one above its almost like you slipped and forgot to pretend you were a male with what I highlighted above.

A guy being concerned about the games men play with women is very odd.

Men rarely flake on dates.

At worst, a guy might get a number and not call her. He got busy or cold feet. Then he might call much later. I agree that it's weird to get a number, go ghost, and call her eight weeks later like it was yesterday lol.

It's more common than you think.
 

"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.

I always thought that ThisNThat was a little bit autistic or had some kind of mental handicap lmao. I guess I was wrong. Probably is a woman now that I think about it.
