Make a long story short. You hang with a woman for a bit and finally get sex. She knows your ex girlfriend indirectly. She knows she is a rebound for you. You get sex, than the next weekend you get shut out for whatever reason. You call her out on the **** teasing behavior which makes her uneasy. She contacts you the next weekend and than it comes out she is hanging with a long lost boyfriend from another country she's known for thirty years whose in town. She says can I see you tomorrow. Do you think this is a bunch of bull**** on her part regarding this phantom guy? is she making it up to spite me? Find it kind of funny all this time I never heard about this guy until recently days after our kind of falling out regarding her **** teasing. Any opinions? Anything happen similar to any guys on here? Never happened to me as it went down recently.
"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.

From what you write your gut feeling is flashing red, steer away and don't waste your time.
I haven't wasted my time. Ignored her text about this phantom long lost boyfriend. Find it kind of funny woman pull anything out to make you suspicious or wondering about their motivations. Think she fabricated that story to a degree.Grewd said:

I find empty speculation to be a waste of time. Fantasy or not, does it change your decision in either case?
My original question was have you had stuff similar like this happen. Where a woman feels scorned and to be vindictive they either invent someone to mean more than they really are or anything else to make you jealous.Grewd said:
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
