I don't think so. I believe it's because they want to.Dark Chivalry said:Because they can.
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I don't think so. I believe it's because they want to.Dark Chivalry said:Because they can.
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.
Hmmmm.... Did an immediate about face but won't talk about it... Curious....comic_relief said:I don't know what exactly happened since last night, but when I tried to even talk with her about it today. She refused to talk about it and said that she wouldn't do it actually. She said that she was just joking around.
I don't know what happened exactly but she had an about face on that subject.
I'll keep you updated.

you know, my daughter refuses to talk to me about things when she doesnt want to get into trouble.comic_relief said:I don't know what exactly happened since last night, but when I tried to even talk with her about it today.

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Don't accept that behaviour. Tell the that you also like "joaking around" then do some grinding of your own. She owns you ATM.comic_relief said:I don't know what exactly happened since last night, but when I tried to even talk with her about it today.

Sounds like a good way to get STD's.Snow Plowman said:Well it already happened and I think you overreacted.
Chicks love going into state and that's why a lot of them go to the club to get all pumpped up. The grinding is pumping there state and that's what's fun about it. That's why she thought of it as fun and just hanging with her friends to have fun. This doesn't actually mean she is hooking up with them. (Then again there is a chance the guy can try and do more than just grinding)
Really I wouldn't be worrying about that and I'd just let her have her fun. Why because you're not coming from a scarcity mentality. Like you said a few other girls wanted to have sex with you so that means if you're gf left you, then you'd still have other women. Also at the end of the day she is coming home to you so it really doesn't matter.
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 can fuuck 1 ***** a get an std and fuuck 50 biitches and never get one. Gotta stay safe and hope for the best. What bearing this advice has on this thread matter i don't know. How about you keep this ****ty advice out of people's thread. Everyone knows that mutiple fuuckin of partners equals increased risk of STD, just like smoking is increased risk of cancer. We don't need some guy for the sake of posting saying this shiit as ti has nothing to do with helping the OP.wolf116 said:Sounds like a good way to get STD's.
The conversation was actually maybe ten minutes long and I just gave you guys the cliff notes version.Alphamale1821 said:My advice be unphased by it and let her know that you plan on hanging out with friends. Whether it be guys or girls she doesn't need to know. Never let a biitch get to you or exploit a weakness. Thats when you start to push a biitch away. Now i understand you are opposed to letting her go to the club, but it sounds like she's gonna go anyway. You could have responded with sure you can go have fun, then let her know that you'll be hanging out with "friends". You can let her know to your discretion whether it's guys or girls or whatever the fuuck you want. Your a man and your entitled to tell a chick whatever amount of information you want, and conveniently leave some out
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
And so now you've discarded valuable options in favor of a girl who will explore her own in spite of you or any pseudo-committment. Break yourself off and play the field COMIC. The more Plates you spin the more confidence you have.comic_relief said:I could easily be spinning more plates and probably am without hanging out or anything. I already had in the past week three girls ask if they could have sex with me. I turned it down because of the entire girlfriend thing.
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.
