YES, the game made me. !
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.
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.
You should make a thread with all the crazy pua advice you tried. This stuff is comedy gold. A similar one that I found hilarious was to game the ugliest girl in set and ignore the hot ones. This will cause the hotties to become intrigued with you. Women aren't stupid. Everybody knows what you're up to especially if you're out of the ugly girls league.The most cringeworthy PUA advice was to copy the mannerisms of “naturals” ie Chads/Chadlites. Steal their personality and body language and try to get the same results lol.
Or the theories about approaching mixed sets and befriending other guys. Guys aren’t stupid. They know you want the girls in their group. These guys aren’t your friends and won’t take too kindly to you infiltrating their group. Deal with other guys in the bar/club as little as possible.
Notwithstanding, I certainly respect any guy that goes out into the field and tries. I’m not anti-game per se, but some of the older theories and beliefs surrounding game are just laughable.
Haha. It would be a very long thread.You should make a thread with all the crazy pua advice you tried. This stuff is comedy gold.

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
I read some of patterns, but it was nothing I ever wanted to try.The wall trick does sound pretty clever. Did the AMOG pull her instead?
I didn’t wait around to find out.
I remember Ross Jeffries having the cringiest advice of them all. I remember there was a sub-forum here years ago dedicated to his material "Unusual Techniques in Seduction" I believe it was called: NLP, boyfriend destroyer patterns, and other crazy advice.
What happened to the lair? Did you decide to quit?So I quickly decided to just craft my own openers rather use standard PUA guru openers. Your delivery will always be better if it’s YOUR line, not somebody else’s.
In comes Mike32ct with his Infamous Strawberry Daquiri Opener*
Mike: Hey girls, quick question. Is it bad form for a guy to order a strawberry daquiri?
Girls: No why?
Mike: I mean I like fruity drinks, but I don’t need some guy at the end of the bar sending me another one.
Girls: haha
*This worked surprisingly well circa 2004 when people had a sense of humor (and I had more hair) lol. It always got a laugh and even led to one solid pull.
This was way back in 2005. I was only part of it for about a year then. The other guys were too clique-y.What happened to the lair? Did you decide to quit?
STEM and IT guys are too intellectual for the majority of women. Couple this with having no style or edge: wearing khakis, button down plaid, bad haircuts, and the giant virgin headphones that cover their ears.The funny term is STEMcel lol.
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.
