"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Disrespectful text out of the blue

This girl I've known for a while but never been friends with recently started chatting with me in a friendly way on fb. She later made up a reason to give her # and I've been texting her the past few days. I didn't care to limit it because I wasn't going to try and make anything happen. This was just because there has never been flirting previously and I assumed she didn't think of me that way and I hadn't thought of her because my friend was interested in her. Anyway, it got sexual and flirty as hell and I can't think of any time she wasn't engaged and I don't think she has any less of an interest. Last night she was texting me about sexual positions and things like thag and after she asked me a question randomly said "alright I have got to go to bed, goodnight." edit: She had not sent a text without smiley faces or exclamations until then. it was not pure content but the dramatic shift in tone with it that made it strange. I was taken aback, as this ***** initiated and actively had a conversation with me up unil now. She has the nerve to.act like I was bothering her? I didn't respond and probably will not, if she texts me I'm not sure what I would do. Is this just me or is that pretty absurd? Should I have bothered to let her know I wasn't ok with that? I think I will just next her because that's not soemthing I will take and it is unnactractive to be honest. Thoughts?
 

"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.

Damn, how sensitive are you? This chick wants to get nasty. She could of went to rub one out. Escalate and bang her like a bass drum, don't cry to her about your feelings.

I don't have to put up with disrespect for sex, I'm not dependent on her for that. I don't feel hurt, it's just not attractive for me when a girl thinks she can talk to me that way. Has nothing to do feelings, well maybe basic self respect. It's hard to explain why it was disrespectful unless you knew how she had been interacting with me until then. It was mostly like a test of my frame. Now I'm not sitting here crying, but I'm trying to get others opinions on if this signals anything and why someone would go from blowing up my phone to acting like I'm annoying in no time at all.

Glad you guys are mature and can answer questions respectfully. If you think it's silly why not explain to me how you see it? Rolling eyes are not helpful, and there is nothing wrong with asking for others views. You know why girls think it's ok to be *****es to guys they are interested in? because some people tolerate things they wouldn't from others because they might get a chance at some puss*.
Also, the way she phrased it plus the timing made it clear as day she was implying that I was annoying her. I don't still have the text so I can't recreate it verbatim, but it was unquestionably not just a casual "goodnight"
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

good lord.. I can't even be annoyed I butchered the explanation of the situation. It does look completely trivial from my initial post.

It wasn't disrespectful. She said "Alright, I have to go to bed. Goodnight". Same as she would have said in person. Texting is cold and lacks affection or emotion. It's good though that you don't want to put up with cr@p just because you have hopes that she might bang. It's a good mindset to have. However, she wasn't being disrespectful here.

It's way too easy to misinterpret texts and overanalyse things. I used to do this alot and it worked against me and wasn't healthy so I had to learn to not give a sh!t.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Wait, so a lack of emoticons brings you to the assumption she hates you now and is disrespecting you? Ever considered a 180 and how you text other people. Look it up and ask yourself at times how cold some of your replies may be yet once you're hanging out with these people, nothing is wrong.

this is why I hate texting over talking on the phone, you lose all the context when things are written rather than spoken

Also, speaking on the phone keeps the conversation more fluid and easier to manipulate to your advantage

Don't overanalyse (for now) take it on face value, she was tired and needed to sleep......

well you guys seem to all agree that it was just me mis-interpreting and over thinking that text. I honestly don't recall the exact wording/structure that made it seem rude but I guess that's irrelevant, you're probably right. Usually the guy who sees something everyone else can't is just wrong, so I'll accept that. I have had my texts become totally misconstrued before and I'm not immune to making mistakes. thanks for the input and perspective

Yeah, man just be cool about it and don't put much meaning into texts, they can lack A LOT of context.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

So wait, you got as far as discussing sexual positions but you never asked her out? Think about this. Stop texting and ask her out.
