You should start testing to see if shes using a system. Where our **** is just make yourself super confident and don't play games they are pure strategy.
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.
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.
#Recon said:I'd really like to air my views but as Ease stated earlier I'm just going to come off as needy.
I think this is something my mother would say if i asked her about my relationship problems. Unfortunately, my mother is not a DJ.Airing your concerns and being needy are two entirely different things. Bottling up your concerns is not option. As I have said try rekindling things, if that doesn't seem to have the right effect, then discuss matters with her (note: not confront, but discuss).
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.
I do. It was YOU.Recon said:I have no idea what sparked this ridiculous change in the relationship
Igetit! said:So it's over? Hmm.
And I suppose she never gave you a reason why.
Women don't just break up on a whim like that. There were probably little signs and clues along the way,like a decline in sex,her coming up with excuse after excuse for not being able to spend time with you.
So you were at home,minding your own business,then out of the blue...bam,you get a text from her saying she wanted to break up.
That sucks dude.
Yeah,go ahead and follow the instructions from the "No Contact" challenge.
That's good info on how to handle a breakup.
(I posted this in your this thread because I didn't want to derail the purpose of the "just got dumped guide".
TC there's a lot of good advice in this thread, but I 100% agree with this. Women are emotional creatures, don't try to throw in logic in an emotional situation. I suggest you do exactly what one guy suggested, cut off contact and don't give in. Let her do some work. If she doesn't, you have to move on, it may be very hard to do so, but you have to do it for yourself and your peace of mind.Igetit! said:Well whatever you do,DON'T CONFRONT HER.
Seems to me like you're upset or angry over a lack of emotion from her.
Confronting her will do no good. Her indifference isn't caused by NOT BEING confronted,so confronting her won't suddenly make her "care" or seem excited about seeing or hanging out with you.
In fact,she may feel unfairly attacked. Emotions aren't cut on or off by the flick of a switch.
It's not like you'll confront her,then afterwards she's going to go,"Ok,you win. I won't be indifferent anymore. So HEY!!! How was your day? I've missed you soooo much! Would I like to go to the park? That's a GREAT idea! Yeah,of course I would! I just miss you so much,and think about you all the time".
Doesn't work that way.
Confrontations can solve problems,but won't fix emotions.
In order to turn this thing about,you'd have to change SOMETHING IN YOURSELF first.
I don't know what that is,however,if the way she's behaving now is different from the way she was behaving when you first met her,that means YOU SCREWED UP somewhere.
Of that,I'm 100% certain.
Check out this thread. You don't have to read the whole thing,just skip down to reply #14.
That should help you get a better understanding of what's going on with your relationship.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
