"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.

Have you ever had a girl show extremely strong IOI, but you don't reciprocate, and she reacts by using other men to try and make you blatantly jealous?

Of course, I know she still wants me first and foremost. My instinct is to just not react. I think it's semi-flattering and stupidly childish.

But how have you reacted to situations like this in the past to ultimately get what you wanted from the lady?

Simply do not react. You still want to make sure you make a move in the end (if you are in fact interested)

Well I'm doing the same thing to a girl right now.

There's this chick at work who I really like (let's call her Jessica), but she made it clear that she only wants to be "friends". Today I'm going to bring a gift wrapped present to this other girl at work who I'm not interested in. I can't wait to see Jessica's face when I give that girl the present. She's going to be eating my shyt by the end of the day. Women are so simple minded.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

You don't make women wet by acting like one. :crackup: :crackup:

Right now you sound like a 15-year-old girl with too much time on her hands. Come on dude. Spin plates and move on with life. Don't pedestalize women by playing power games with them. There is no game.. YOU are a man and she is a woman. Either she will follow your lead OR you will find someone who will. Simple as that.

if you stop reacting, then she will stop playing this game
:up: :up:

You win 100% of head games by not lowering yourself enough to play them. Games are for women and kids. Live your life, spin plates and be a dominant happy man. If woman try to manipulate you.. laugh at them and keep doing your thing. If they want your d!ck they'll jump on it sooner or later. :yes:

This has happened to me before. A girl that I think was interested in me flirted with her ex in front of me at a party. We are all in the same social circle and it was a party of about 60 people.

I promptly walked over to a girl I never met and introduced myself, flirted for a while, and got her number.

The first girl found out about it and flipped out. She never tried that again. It didn't work out though she was crazy.

A symptom of BPD, although not a definite indicator in your case. Keep it in ind.

I'm confused here. What exactly is it that you want from this girl?

If you want sex or a relationship, she's already interested why don't you turn on the charm and start reciprocating?
If you want her to just go away, then ignore her completely.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.
