Yup, cuz dudes are ALWAYS successful approaching women at the gym.. I mean, there's literally thread after thread about how easy, and natural that is right.... -________-
"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.

"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.
so I'm always positive I screwed this up. I found her on plenty of fish three times today. Why is she on dating website if this is not the right time to go on dates?
But what I can't figure out is how she lost interest in 24 hours. She texted me yesterday that she was looking forward to seeing me. She seemed very interested overall - was texting me constantly
Very strange

Here's what happened. She asked me about working out and I said I'm big time into it and went into a little detail. She then told me she is currently the heaviest she has ever been but is trying hard to cut weight - she's on a huge calorie restricted diet. She told me she's trying hard to lose weight. Then we had a very big discussion about losing weight and I just gave her a ton of advice as I went into detail of how I lost weight myself (I've cut probably 80 lbs in last 10 years). I was very positive and supportive. She said "I'm not fat though I promise" - and I said "it's cool, I'm sure you're beautiful in real life". I never said anything judgmental or negative
outside of that, all our conversation was very straight forward. Just getting to know each other
You would of seen her on POF three times today even if you HAD went on the date. Did you stay off POF, just because you were talking to her?.. and she said now's not the time to go on dates, she didn't say I don't want to talk to anyone anymore

Dont approach babes In the gym. Pretty simple.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
I see tons of hot latinas at my gym

Did you REALLY say that to her?
Dude...you're oblivious. You can't see YOURSELF. That woman did herself A HUGE favor by staying away from you.
Other people were saying something like this would happen,but I thought it'd at least be after a date or two. People kept trying to warn you,but you're too blind and dense to listen.....you were warned ALL THROUGHOUT this thread. I noticed a red flag in YOUR behavior,in the way you kept describing how you and this girl interacted.....there was one thing you kept saying over and over again...you said it 3 times in a row,then said it again later on....
You kept going on about how you and this chick would get along like "best friends"...said it over and over again. First time you said it,I kinda paused for a second.....then just let it go on. Second time,I was like,"Uh oh....:,then the third time I was like,"Oh sh1t". I personally never said anything cause I learned long ago talking to you is pointless,but someone here did bring up. You of course brushed it aside and went along your merry way.....not seeing THE CLIFF out in front of you that you were headed straight towards.
Dude...you are BLIND. I've never seen anyone as blind as you. And the irony is,what you are blind to,the ENTIRE FORUM SEES.
You want to know if you somehow blew the potential date with this girl? Yeah....I say yes you did.
You wanna know how? Simple.... You blew it by simply being YOURSELF. It's one thing to be blind. You are a blind FOOL.
And even now.....I bet you have NO IDEA what you did that caused this to fall apart. I know you don't...it's cause you're blind. You ignore EVERY ATTEMPT people try in order to help you see.
It's just mindboggling to see this entire forum offer and try to push on you glasses,jugs,buckets,and containers full of water...yet you stand in the midst of everyone dying of thirst.
You made a thread today,(I guess I should specify which one,since you make so many),called "I'm realizing 2 huge problems within myself". If you want to know what likely happened here,go back and read your OWN thread...your OWN words. Your 1st post was two paragraphs...you need to look at the second. You seem to think that you.....the REAL you...the guy who's here on this forum...that you can somehow hide that "Dave" from women and put up this masculine facade and the chicks won't notice....but the real you keeps leaking out.
No way you should be this clueless about to hit 30.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

She must have found out that you were posting her picture in a men's forum and talking about her like a future wife.
Little bit of a creep factor.

Idk but there is something with Dave
I asked him before but i think he is prob a high functioning autism
Something in the way he dont get the subtle stuff or joke ppl make.
Im am hoping things work out for him but he really need to educate himself and start thinking from the other people perspective.

May be he does have autism or some psychological issue. I'm seriously contemplating putting him on my ignore list (my first!) because I'm simply exhausted with all his drama here and yet there has been no change in him whatsoever. There's really nothing more to say or do like @Igetit! said. If I were a mod I'd take away his 'new thread' creating privileges.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
that message was a hail mary after the fact. It was already dead by then so it didn't matter
the rest of our messages were very routine for the most part. The only thing I regret was getting into a big discussion about diet and training because I fear I made her feel insecure... but she herself volunteered the info about being overweight and wanting to get into shape. Otherwise we talked about movies, TV shows, food, work, family, very normal stuff. I showed interest when it was natural after she showed it. I didn't go all emotional gaga over her. I deleted all the messages already but I almost wish I didn't. You guys could see all my messages were very "normal".
the last woman I went out with was this beautiful 35 year old woman. We went out for 2 months, every date was very smooth and she was very heavily into me. I stopped seeing her cause she was a single mom

I see his point
but he thinks that all our interactions were like that. None of our interactions were like that. I know damn well that showing too much interest/eagerness makes you look very soft and weak as a male
I mostly only showed interest after she showed it first

good for you
"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.
