"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.

so theres an event the city i live in was hosting this last weekend. my gf was there with her girlfriends getting drunk. afterwards they wanted to go to a club near by however i wanted to go to a different club. so we went our seperate ways for the night. she texted me to come over late nite when she was home but i was already in bed so i didnt.

the next day she found a tampon wrapper in my house bathroom so she questioned me about it. (it was nothing really friends gf must have put it there) but i replied by saying it was nothing and why would you even think that. how would you like it if i searched your phones text messages. she said go ahead and look theres nothing.

i came across some guys name and asked about it. heres what the text conversation said.

gf -" come to xxx bar"
guy- "cool"
later in the night around 2am
"so you live off xxx right? can i come?"


she didnt respond.
i asked for an explanation she said that it was a guy she dated one time before me. she now hookd him up with her girl friend. the girlfriend that night asked my gf to text him to come to the bar. she did. she said after the bar she saw that text and she was mad he would do that and didnt respond.


so now i dont know how to react. we talked about it last nite and that was the explanation i got. do i bring it up again today? do i not bring it up because it isnt alpha? we have been together for 2 years with a 4month break. in between. if i do bring it up how do i talk about it. thanks for help guys. your advice is appreaciated.
 

"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.

Why would you bring up the phone? Why did you then look at it? If you have to look at her phone then it sounds like you don't trust her. If you don't trust her, why are you so close to her?

Did you get defensive about the tampon?

I think bringing it up again just pours gas on the fire. Let it go. If she's a slvt you'll figure it out.

Put this situation on your radar and keep it there til you have reason to drop it. Don't go nuts on her though, don't question her about crap and make sure you're living your life for YOU and not her.

Sounds like a bunch of games, OP.

Why didn't you just tell her what the tampon was, and understand her reaction?

I mean, look at yours.

Quite frankly, some things are questionable. Whether or not you can ask the questions, and ANSWER the questions maturely without games, is going to make or break the relationship.

Not everything is a big game, and not every considerable action is "afc" or "dj", some things are common courtesy and common sense. Both scenarios here are highly, highly questionable, and how you two deal with it is going to define this relationship.

This isn't going to work, Romjuan. Looking back at your threads starting over this chick, it's just...................not going to work. You're head over heels for her, though, so it seems you're going to learn this lesson the hard way.

And I'm saying this girl is a bad person or anything. It's just that you are extremely AFC and I don't think this girl sees you in a good light. And the bad news (or worse, I should say), is that once she loses disrespect for you, you really won't ever get it back. Ever. Man if I know one, I know a hundred relationships (including some of my own) that end later on when you've broken up and gotten back together. Oftentimes it's in marriage.

Stick around and hopefully learn something this time, because it doesn't seem this situation will end well for you if you don't.

And don't listen to iqqi, her advice is retarded. This is not games to everyone who "gets it". It's pretty cut, dry and defined right there for you.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.
