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.

i know everyone says here call always dont text, but everytime i call they never pick up.. so it sets me back a few days (or few weeks depending what's going on in their schedule over the time like going away etc) before i text something.. sometimes i get dates sometimes i dont.

wouldn't i be better off texting first rather than calling?

i guess a non returned called within a timely manner just isn't worth it.
 

"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.

They don't call back or text you back??

I would just wait a day and text something like " i see your a little shy" or something like that.

Text, most people don´t pickup the phone at first try.... Girls are social butterflies, so they can be terribly difficult to reach...

I ALWAYS text (or IM her). If she doesn't text back don't bother. With calls it's sometimes hard to keep up a conversation and can get kinda complicated as you've discovered...

I prefer to call and if she doesn't answer, send a text kinda as my vm, asking about whatever I was calling about. I get a decent response rate
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

Why don't you leave a message? If she never returns your message, then she doesn't have enough interest to warrant any further contact.

Canada, eh?
no returned call or message means no interest.

it doesnt really matter what you do- call, text, send a letter,etc.

I just dialed one up and she doesnt pick up because she recognizes my number. Then I asked my buddy to call her under "private" and not only she picks up right away, but leads a conversation with him without even knowing who it is (stupid b!tch). He says "I am John, from one of your .... blah blah...."

Some wont pick up if they dont recognize the number - they are simply too stupid and scared. Otherwise will tr to get your number as soon as possible,so they can ignore it right off the bet.

I will call and if there is no answer the first time or two, I will send a text to entice her and show her that I could not really care less. They know you called anyway. If she goes cold on you, you go colder.

Nowadays man, it's way more common to text anyone than call. I'd say text first time, then next time you wanna get in touch with the girl and everything went well just call.
