Keep your chin up Danny. Someday she will realize just what a big mistake she made. Use this as a learning experience to grow from. 
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.
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.
Go meet some new hos... I bet $5 she has met some new dudes...DannykDJ said:Well today is day 2 with no contact. She hasn't called me and I haven't called her because I took her number out of my phone (doesn't really help since I had it memorized)
The past 2 days seem to be going by so slowly and I almost lost it about a dozen times so far. I'm going to meet some friends at the gym for a workout and try to keep myself busy the rest of the weekend by studying for exams.
Honestly right now i'm really burned out and the thought of women right now just doesn't appeal to me.DonGorgon said:Go meet some new hos... I bet $5 she has met some new dudes...

I think i'm gonna take the summer off from girls and focus on other things. Right now all I want to do and am concerned with is get back to the point where I can go a day without crying and be completely happy just being by myself
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Damn I have a long way to go in life.
Thank you for your help and advice every time someone tells me this it makes it easier to believe it's true.Nelford said:Danny you will be ok trust me. I went through a mean breakup my second year in college and I thought my world was over. I had to skip classes for a week to get my mind right. These guys on this board are telling you some good stuff. I invested so much into this girl that when she broke it off it was like loosing all your life savings in the market when you were told by your advisor to sell.
After that relationship I wouldn't let another women get close to me. I have sex with them but the minute they started getting to close I would lace up my shoes and head for the hills. But now I mature, know what I want and will not put up with any non-sense because I love myself to much to let anyone hurt me.
Oh and before I forget my ex still calls trying to get back with me. One time my mother stayed over my house and when she left she saw my ex outside in front of my house spying, so my mother waved to let her know that she was caught.
You are young, enjoy your life and concentrate on getting that good job, house and all that other good stuff. Next time you get in a relationship take things slow and really pay attention to her actions. Most things you will see if you pay attention.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
