Girls actually loves drop outs don't believe me. I have proofs: http://tkcollier.files.wordpress.com/2007/01/billgates-warren-hooters.jpg
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.
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.
MrJibbles said:I am unemployed, with no friends left in my hometown, and dropped out of university months ago. My life has reached a new low. I will probably celebrate tonight with a bottle of Jack Daniel's and a 5-hour sesh of Call of Duty... alone in my mom's basement.
Clearly you are not over these things and your life isn't going downhill but is already downhill.MrJibbles said:Even It doesn't help that I have social anxiety and other psychological issues... I have seen 2 psychiatrists and 3 psychologists in the past for a variety of reasons, including alcoholism, weed addiction and depression though I'm over those things now, my life seems to be going downhill again.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
