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.
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.
The lines aren't a technique. A line is a routine based of a technique. NO girl is going to say "Hey stop using C&F on me". Instead there going to be to busy having fun with you.Master Bates said:^ They may not be lines but it's still a technique. And like I said, the more public and mainstream this stuff gets, the more women are going to be aware of it and questioning every time a guy starts interacting with them.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
I agree.Snow Plowman said:BUT PU is like those late night penis enlargement commericals. Guys think it's the magic pill and when they start getting into it they realize it's far from that. Just look at some of you right now.
How many of you guys actually approach women constantly? You know how many guys I've known that gave up learning this and they had a good grasp of what the game was about. That is how it will be when it gets main stream. THE AVERAGE PERSON ISN"T WILLING TO GO THROUGH THE MONTHS AND YEARS OF PRACTICE because like the Penis enlargement commerical...they want the big dik NOW. Not a slow 1/2 inch progress every 6 months.
Not unless what they're doing smells like an obvious trick or technique.Master Bates said:^ They may not be lines but it's still a technique. And like I said, the more public and mainstream this stuff gets, the more women are going to be aware of it and questioning every time a guy starts interacting with them.
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.
