"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Disappointment

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

It really means she was disappointed in herself for choosing the wrong type of guys. What she perceived as a great guy turned out not to be. By telling you shes been so disappointed she's covertly seeking you to reassure her you won't disappoint her (that's if you are thinking of dating her). To even be naive to see that they were not great guys from the start may show she has some self esteem issues.

You do surprise me Howie :D

I agree about the dating wrong guys thing. But the self esteem thing.... meh, we've all made unwise choices in our time. That's more often to do with naivete than self esteem though, probably. I've certainly been disappointed myself a few times. Two sides of the same coin.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

I go with @Dingo here all day and all night. A woman who tells you "I got dissapointed", meh, she lost my interest already. Why do I care about that? She starts of negatively? Telling you "I don't want you to pressure me"? She probably some snowflake who thinks the world is mean to her and she deserves someone to caress her and her insecurities and lack of luck in life and IF/WHEN she gets that, she will probably cheat on him. I mean, I just cannot stand these women. Negative energy.

A girl told me just tonight "You remind me of my ex boyfriend kinda". Gone LOL no time for useless drama and comparisons and expectations.

Add to that a poor choice making, too. They make the wrong choices and call it dissapointment to get the blame off their shoulders and feel better about themselves LOL

I mean, wrong choice making is not a crime, but dwelling on it shows your emotionally weak and probably a bunch of trouble ahead and hypersensitive to whatever she perceives as "dissapointing, wrong".
