or do women still hold out for 3 to 4 dates before putting out....
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.
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.
WTF? There are girls here? lolpenkitten said:you see this is where things get tricky, trying to explain the hold out plan to guys.
as chicks, we are taught to try to hold out to date number 3.
why? so we arent seen as hors.
do we always stick to it? no.
sometimes its faster than that, and its either because we really really want you, or we just dont care if we ever see you again.
however, if you are dating a chick thats a virgin, shes probally not going to be giving it up to you by the third date.
but if you are dating a chick that has been around, if you dont get it by date number three, you proablly aint gonna get it. EVER.
but that is just my two cents...
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.
yes dude, some of us are chicks on here.Vypros said:WTF? There are girls here? lol
I have to ask...why?penkitten said:yes dude, some of us are chicks on here.
in the back of our minds, we know you are wondering this, so we plan to answer with the number four if you ever ask. :crackup:ozzfest said:penkitten...actually pleasant to hear a women's perspective. As a guy I'm thrilled to get it on the 1st date , but also in the back of my mind wondering "how many other guys nailed her on the 1st date too"?
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Ummm, because they don't have penis'....Vypros said:I have to ask...why?
So, what you are saying is that you use sex as a form of control over guys?penkitten said:in the back of our minds, we know you are wondering this, so we plan to answer with the number four if you ever ask. :crackup:
at some point, we try to sort out the respectable guys, and not give it up to them on the first date, because most of them disappear if you give it up too soon.
however, if i didnt give it up by date three, they were just my friend.
yes we do. we always have and we always will. (do a search and you will see countless threads containing this information posted by all kinds of men.)Vypros said:So, what you are saying is that you use sex as a form of control over guys?
I've heard this viewpoint from other girls before and it boggles my mind that a girl will be more likely to sleep with someone she DOESN'T like on the first date and make the men she DOES like wait a while for sex.
Sit back and look at what I just said and ask yourself what the hell you are thinking?
Eh, I knew this much.penkitten said:yes we do. we always have and we always will. (do a search and you will see countless threads containing this information posted by all kinds of men.)
yes thats what i said and meant.
we "feel" and do what we feel is right at the moment. if we had time to sit down and think things thru, this is logical to us. a fling will come and go, but a good guy will stick around. these are the kinds of things that we are taught and experienced at least once, that makes us continue to think this way.

Yeah, I know that's what they do, I'm just looking for some logical reasoning behind it.ryannath said:Vypros, I am not a woman, but that is exactly right what you said. Some women that like you will not give it up on the first date so you won't disappear. But, some women that don't even like you, will give it up because that's all they see that guy as is a way to get a nut. Women are more and more like men nowadays, and you have to adapt to this lifestyle.
yes but if the guy is going to hit it and disappear, we would rather him do it sooner than later.Vypros said:Yeah, I know that's what they do, I'm just looking for some logical reasoning behind it.
The simple fact is: If a guy likes you HE IS GOING TO STAY WITH YOU WHETHER YOU GIVE IT UP ON DATE 1 OR DATE 29.
So making a guy wait for it is kind of pointless. A guy who is going to hit it and disappear is going to hit it and disappear whether he gets it on date 1 or date 9.
More women need to realize this.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
