This thread is why I laugh when guys here claim that there aren't that many hot women out there. There are so many(hot women), it's not even funny.
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.
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.
Oh come on dude, listen to how ridiculous that sounds. If it were that easy, then why haven't I(a good-looking guy, but I know that doesn't matter) gotten laid(without the use of escorts/prostitutes from Amsterdam) since April 2007? You of all people since being on this site for a number of yrs, should know it doesn't work that way.Colossus said:There is such an abundance of hot women that every man can get some...it's ridiculous!!! No Man should ever have a scarcity mentality when it comes to women. There are so many out there who are willing to slide down your pole it's amazing. All you have to do is get a little creative and do some approaching. You dont even have to be that clever or "playa", just put yourself where women are and talk to them. Look for IOI's, interact, and ask them to hang out sometime.
Do you know how many times I've tried that, but to no avail? I always treat them as if I am not "wowed" by them and act aloof.samspade said:Treat 'em all like they're ugly and you'll find that the world is your oyster.
Yup, exactly. That's exactly how it is out there.Warrior74 said:I took note of the hot chics who were with guys. These guys didn't look any better than me, or worse than me, any richer or poorer. They were average suburban looking guys.
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.
It's partially a numbers game, but it's also your Game. You just said you chickened out with approaches. What about the girl who approached you? If she was interested in YOU and opened YOU, the only reason you don't have her in the bag is because of YOUR game.edger said:Oh come on dude, listen to how ridiculous that sounds.

I will admit one thing though...I have had a few hot women vibe me within the last several months who I never approached because I chickened out, or chicks who it wasn't the appropriate moment with or other reasons. But whether or not they would've wanted to hit the bedroom with me, is a whole other question. Most likely they wouldn't have, as that seems to be the trend with me. Most hot women who I approach after getting vibes from, never goes anywhere. Same sh*t happens with the ones who cold-approach me. Had a full-blown hottie cold-approach me this past Saturday, but within 5 minutes or so, blew me off.

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.
So what Eastern European country is that? It sure as hell can't be a city in the USA ...Warrior74 said:Me and and the offspring went out and about town this weekend and the thing I noticed was that there are beautiful women everywhere. Now I don't live in a major city...the population is about 224,810.
