"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.

are girls more scared of rejection than guys

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Absolutely not. Society has all the plugged in chumps fighting each other for the "prize"-women. Women are hit on all the time, even if there HB4.

That being said, flipping the script only works with attraction. Rejecting/playing hard to get with women without the preceeding attraction does not work.

Reject an interested girl which is used to have guys to go after her and her hamster powered brain will go on short circuit, you will litterally control her as if you were a jedi.

But its very hard for girls to approach guys, usually they just put themselves close to a guy from who they want to be approached, only hb5 and less may attempt real approaches except if they are in a very competetive environment made of mostly women where its guys to pick what they want.

I think so.

In my experiences, some women handle rejection better than others... typically the better looking the girl, the worse she handles it. Recently I met a girl who seemed real interested, but convinced me she's playing games and I just walked away. Since then she has pretty much stamped "LOOK AT ME" on her forehead.

Girls get approached far more than guys, and they have lots of guys after them. Girls are indifferent by default, and have options. It's even worse they control the sex market.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

Women can't handle rejection much better than men, in my experience far worse.

I had a date with this chick (didn't kiss close although she put on lip balm and think she wanted it). I wasn't sure about her and had a few others on the spin and I told her I'm off on holiday for a week. Two weeks later I start getting anonymous phone calls on my mobile (never get those). I eventually answered the phone, "hello, hello". Hanged up. Didn't phone again. You can bet it was her.

The only times I can think of a girl getting "rejected" is when she's trying to get back with a dude she already dated.

Girls have always hit on me, but I never met a girl who plainly said, "I think you're cute, let's hang out," the girls usually beat around the bush and ask dumb things like, 'do you have a brother,' or 'you look like my friend,' and stuff like that lol. So it's hard for girls to get rejected when they dont really make themselves vulnerable in the first place

Most women experience indirect rejections, for example:

1. The guy they want never asks them out.
2. Guy ignores her when she gives them IOI's.
3. The guy they want is already taken.

This hits it right on the head. Just to add to it, women do not count men they are not interested in as options. If a woman is approached by 19 guys she is not interested in and rejects them, she really doesn't even acknowledge them as "guys", but creeps and douches. But if number 20 is a guy she is interested in, she will be like "OMG, I found this really cute guy today!" forgetting about the last 19 other guys.

What sounds more familiar:
"This guy tried to talk to me today, but I just didn't think we were a good match."
OR
"OMG, this weirdo came up to me today trying to talk to me. I swear he was stalking me. I told him I was late to class and ran off.

A girl can forget about most guys she talks to easily. A girl feels rejected if a high value man rejects her. If a creep rejects her, no effect.

I think most of you men here have it wrong. Women handle rejection worse BECAUSE they're not used to it. Its rare.. so when it happens it has a stronger impact. Men get numb to rejection over time if they spin plates a lot.

Also.. you guys are only thinking in terms of initial rejection when a girl first shows interest. How about f*ck and chuck rejection when you plow a girl and never call her again? What about when you dumb a girl? What about when you take her on a date and never call her back? What about when you date for a month then go ghost? :cry: :cry:

You men are missing the big picture. Women rarely get rejected EARLY. Instead they get rejected AFTER men get to know them a little (or f*ck them) which is much more painful.

I have dumped more women than women have dumped me. I lack patience for relationship drama and I'm good at spinning plates.. so when a girl gets annoying I just drop her. And NO.. some of them don't"handle it well" at all. The female ego is MASSIVE.

I think EVERYONE is afraid of rejection to SOME. We're HUMANS. Some will get over it faster. Some will be immune to it. Some are sensitive.

Some people are stupid and narrowminded, thinking in terms of gender or some bullsh*t like that

This is good, women only handle rejection badly, once they become invested, the grudges last a very long time and they never really get over it
 

"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.

What Playherman said its true, 90% of our rejection happens pretty early wheter is a cold approach or asking her out and she declines, those kind of rejections are more common but also quicker.

Women on the contraty get asked out and never called back after all their boriness and plain character emerges, other dont get called because they dont put out fast enough and dont have anything to compensate for which is surely much more painful to them because its a rejection on the person not a rejection on look or social proof like it may happen to us.

Sure women have more guys hitting on them but since they only consider "men" top percenters of the male sex its very likely that they experience rejection pretty often, top percenter hardly want relationship and mostly pump and dump girls or put them in the fvck buddy zone.
