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.
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.
Zarky said:I found them pretty predictable and eventually dull. Until the virgin thing became clear. The fact that a literal 40-year-old virgin was giving people advice on how to get laid pretty much sums up the internet.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Yep, blatantly NN. You'd think he'd put this sort of effort into losing his virginity, wouldn't you?ScottMustaine said:You guys stoopid or what ?
BlackBear is either NN or Sageproduct.
Look at the past threads.
I agree wholeheartedly. Those two virgin losers were something else weren't they? Good riddance to both of them. Now we can all get back to posting our stories of epic game.White Boy said:I'm glad losers like those two exist, because they make me feel better about myself
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Umm... didn't you understand that the post to which you refer, which I assume is this one....Alvafe said:well I guess it true then, if zarky is saying both are dull they are doing something right,
and I read her/him last post on her matingmarket, first and last time, I did read things some angry guys write or are really liekyou guys say white knights, but that only post make me feel sad about the person writing that up.... looks like the person is bitter, really hate other people, and want to hide all her fear, hate and sadness in a mask of I will change the world.

Here some first grade grammar lessons:

Is there a rule that members of this site must be over 18?
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.
