"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I set up a date with a girl I've known for about 1-2 years (we go to the same gym and small talk, maybe 10min in month total). She texts me the day before date and says she has the flu, could we go out another day. I said yes (I should have replied maybe), but I text her back this: OK, but YOU call ME. Get well quickly.

Now I'll wait for her to call and if she doesn't I'll pretend like noting happened.
I assume that if she canceled and is intrested she WILL call me. If not-NEXT.

Am I right?
 

"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.

Oh I forgot, after I told her to call ME, she told me -maybe we'll see eachother in the gym, although I wont go for a few days.
Now I started to trust my gut and my first thought and it's saying- She has the flu, will call me when she get's better, but will be OK to work out. Somethings fishy.


Should I try to call her 1 week after she canceled or wait her to call?


PS: I'm more pissed I deleted another girls number so she could give me hers than her flaking.:-(
 

"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.

OK she called today(7 days after cancelling), seems like she really had the flu. Iwill tell her to hang out with me and if she tryes to reschedule I'll next her right then and there. For now she will be my backup plan. OK?

Dude, relax. Don't jump to conclusions like many of the lamers in this thread.

It's Winter season, you know where temperature drops down and people start getting colds/coughs/flus/fevers/etc.

Cut her some slack, try again, the only time I would next is if she would verbally hint at not dating you or her body language was showing disinterest.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

Seems my gut was right again.
She texts now I'm feeling ok so I can do things.
I say what things?
She says: oh now you want me to tell you that we can go to the cinema, I texted you no reason, just cause I said I will,here:I'm ok.
My reply was-Aha,no reason, OK glad youre feeling better.(and in my mind NEXT)
She didnt reply.

too many awkward games/messages.

Stop the texting. Call her, try to make plans directly. Clear the air.

If it still doesn't work, NEXT, but first call and sound confident and clear about what you want to do.

This is my advice.

You screwed up with:

What things?

You are supposed to be a man and take charge.

Your only recovery at this point would be:

Dinner at XXX restaurant xxx time xxx day. Pick you up at XXX?

No wishy-washiness. If she flakes, you did it to yourself... Next.

Would waiting 4 days to CALL after these messages be too long?

napoleon, u seem to be really anxious.. posting so frequently..
are you sure you didnt contract one-itis or something?

In the meantime. Go out with a wing, or solo... and get more numbers.

I dont have a oneitis, I just wanna prove something to myself and am pissed. Maybe I could make a thread about what bothers me.
This is what bothers me: My friend goes out, makes out 1 time in last 6 months with a girl he sees for the first time, they go out, and now they are together, fuking and all.
I on the other hand can go out, make out with 2 girls, get 3 numbers, and from all that get nothing.
That is what pisses me off, like I have no luck. Now if I can go out with this girl (maybe I'll next her after 2-3 dates) I'll prove to myself that I'm not having bad luck, it's not my looks , just my technique.
