"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.

This chick reached out to me on social media and showed interest in meeting up. I entertained her lightly for a couple weeks before setting the first date which led to only a little making out.

2nd date was a hike and drinks in the hot tub after. Some heavy petting and more making out.

Did the standard waiting for her to reach out after each date to re-engage and set up the next.

Got lots of excuses and resistance for meetup 3 as you’ll see some of in these texts. After the first round of pushback for meetup 3, I put her on ice for a few days. Then hit her back and she was compliant last night and it finally led to her coming back to my place and spending the night for s*x.

In bed she said I have the “player vibe” and that scared her (see text message), she kept joking about it and I just kept playing it off - saying things like “what do you mean?” Etc.

Anyway, she took me out to breakfast this morning and said she was gonna bake me some cookies before I leave town for work this weekend.

Here’s some screenshots….

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

"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.

@firstbornunicorn There are a few things that CW harps on that I think hold up, fundamental basics…

@Zimbabwe It wasn’t really much effort. Much less and I woulda just been being lazy and leaving some p*ssy on the table. I guess I should clarify, she’s hot - like paid Instagram baddie - so I’d say it was a good score.

This is the lamest texting I've seen in a while. She must really be into you.
Haha thanks, kinda why I put it up. Just for a data point. Text game could be terrible but some kind of communication got her in my bed.

btw I’m in blue

Hi Rick,
Classic Moves,you are really one of us now....So Pound away!
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

RickPound, this girl must have lower SMV or see's it that way. Very impersonable texting. Not a way to build rapport.

Yea they are examples of resistance I sensed and her excuses. We don’t really text a lot anyway.
I’m leaving town today for a work trip so she came over last night and cooked me dinner. Then we built rapport, and again this morning - if you know what I mean
