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.
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
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.

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:
"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.
