"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Girl gave a lot of buying signals...now won't answer her phone

Met a girl at the gym and went for coffee a week ago, she gave all the right signals and even suggested I took her out again. I held back and didn't take her offer right there. I could tell she was disappointed by this and that when we said goodbye I just took off and told her, see you at the gym.

Naturally I didn't run into her at the gym (she is not much of a gym goer), but she is not answering her phone or texts (tried contacting her today for the first time after last week's date).

Now I'm confused, I thought she was very interested judging from her buying signals.

She is a nice girl, is there anything to be gained if I insist on contacting her?
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Maybe she was busy
Maybe she met someone she likes better
Maybe her dream boy opened up a slot for her
Meybe she got hit by a bus
Maybe her aunt died.

Just leave it another day or two, so little Info and so many possibilities.

Out of curiosity, how many calls/texts did you throw her way today? Since you said but she is not answering her phone or texts I hope you didnt blow her phone up trying to reach her?

Called once and texted once about 15 minutes later, something like: hey, I didn't see you at the gym during the week. Can this be considered blowing up her phone?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Turns out she did text back around midnight. She said:
"Hi! I went to the gym on Tuesday and Thursday. How are you?. I didn't see my phone until now, it's so late"

I still have not texted back, I'd like to take her out on a date this weekend.

Kinda short notice, dont be surprised if she cant make it. Ideally you'll wanna try to make the plans in the earlier days of the week since by thursday, most people already have plans for the weekend already.

Women and their phones are fvckin almost surgically joined.
Unless she's an older chick who's a nurse or some other profession which requires her to be away from her phone, she would've seen your message and call.
All is not lost but be prepared for flakeage.

Women's buying signals and IOI's are all bullsh*t until we've banged and gone out.

Women know what men see as IOI's and buying signals, so they can choose to display them at will to get attention or something from a man. Hence these types of threads. And I spin more plates in case a woman who gives me buying signals and doesn't answer is an attention wh0re. My verdict.

Case closed.

You gave her clear signs that you were disinterested by not at least acknowledging a second date possibility. Then followed it up with a resounding "see you at the gym". She thinks you didn't like her and this recent call probably makes her think you just want to bone.

Or she could just be busy.
 

"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.
