"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.

Well, there's this new girl at work. She seems shy. The first time I saw her I walked up to her and was like "hey my name is golf299, what's yours?" she gave me her name and that was it.

we work in two different areas at work so i don't really get to see/talk to her much at all.

recently she took a vacation, and she just started the job! so, i decided to give her some crap about it: "you just started working her and already taking vacation, huh? i wish i could work for a week and take a week off. that's a pretty sweet deal you've got" --all said smiling and in a joking manner.

what was her response? no comment and she just turned away from me. WTF?

i know that's not much to go on, but do you have any insight, or similar experiences?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

No I don't know the girls, but I think you just established yourself as an ass.

I've had similar experience when I thought what I would say would be good but they totally took it the wrong way. Most of the time, you plan it too much. It's not totally lost though. You still might have a chance.

Just play your cards right,

Did she take Vacation or is that what they are calling it. She may of had somthing going on in her life that was serious and that is why she took that time off, not vacation. Serious look at from managment POV would you allow a new employee to take vacation that soon...

You may have really F'd Up. Yo!
 

"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.

Yeah, this is a good point. Of course, if she really was on vacation and gave you that response, she has a stick up her arse and not worth the trouble. A girl with 'some what' of a personality and a sense of humor would have at least made a smart comment back. NEXT!!
