"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

Thanks for the replies guys. I still have not made contact and I think it would be best to not reply at this point, although I do see some possible value in saying that I agree and what not..I think ill just ignore her. Now if she does try to text me or call in the near future I'm not sure if I should ignore that too and or for how long to keep nc? It may depend on what this girls says maybe cause I know she def will try to talk to me I'm just not sure when haha
Sounds like you've got it on lock, but yeah definitely do not reply at this point. An immediate response of indifference wouldn't have been so bad, but now its been a couple days and if you reply now it'll show that you've been stewing on it and it's still on your mind (of course it is, but she doesn't know that).

Exactly what Lotus Effect said. This one's in the books. Even if you could salvage this thing, it's highly unlikely that it'd work. Which is a great thing because you don't want to be with a woman who is so lacking in character that she couldn't even work up the decency to at least hit you up with a phone call. A one-liner via text, bro. Everytime you miss her repeat that sentence to yourself.
 

“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.

I definitely was the one in power now. The one who cares the least has the most power. Soon I realized I didn't need a girl like this. The only kind of girl worth having is one who is totally into you 100pct of the time. The ones who are on the fence about you are a pain in the a$$ and will cause you lots of grief. They should only be used as a cahk receptacle.
Yes, agree 100%

Also don't date American women.

Send her a thank you note taped to the back of a polaroid with you and 3 women from Thailand.

Write "I'm sorry I have issues I need time".

The issue is that she has a guy with a bigger **** who she likes much better.

If she still considered you she'd sooner just avoid you but not say anything. This sounds like LJBF.

That said, she might call you in 30 days so just don't reply at all. She has to make the next contact.
 

"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.

haha this if funny bbut I highly doubt this to be a fact. I see her saying LJBF in the future but also see her tryin to reconcile or at least try to validate to herself that I still like her. I know the advise here from you DJ's would to not give her that pleasure, let her stew, then possibly reevaluate on my terms/motives? thoughts? still have not made contact its only been three days but I feel great like some weight is off my shoulders

You need download a call blocking app and add her number to it.

Man. Simply do not reply. There is not much to think about it!

She wanted this. Now she is having. Period.

I dont know what the story or back story is but this 99% of the time translates to "I dont know if I love him anymore" "Do I have a future with him" "Im not interested anymore". Basically, what Im saying is its in your best interest to emergency detach and move on, however dont rule anything out. Maybe she has a legitimate issue, but if she did she would have addressed it in a different fashion. Take a bottle of whiskey for the night into consideration though, I dont see this turning out positive.

Or if you dont have detachment issues and/or she wasnt worth your time eg; cant cook or not wife material, ditch the ***** and **** the next girl youre attracted to.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Yep, then wait for the text you get from a random unknown mobile number and repeat the step above...

Haha. Idk how long I should keep nc going but when it does end I plan on acting as if there was never nc in terms of my response. Of course I will be better version of myself and in a whole different mindset of a Dj. But she doesn't have to know that and she won't.

In your situation I would keep on NC. IF she blows your phone you could replie after 60days short. Only reply if she wants to meet up and don't talk or sh1t on texts or phone. If she wants to get back in a relationship do it in your terms and don't show weakness, don't admit you struggled.

From what Ive read bout this whole case: Your doing well keep on ghostmode and dont reply on anything, NC and keep your value high.

Most likely (believe me from expierence) this girl ist just trying to figure out for her own ego boost if you still want her, if your hurt or not, her hamster is tripping nutz of the unknown and that could be it so don't fall for that trap. If she was interested she wouldn't let you down. So think twice

Dang ok. Sixty days seems long haha I was thinking more like a month but well see I guess the longer the better? But there may be a point where it's too long if I decide I wanna be with her. Idk
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Hogwild, this is a crucial...there will be times that you'll feel weak and would like to reply back. Those instances are normal when doing NC. Never reply back, you have to fight it. Otherwise you'll give her whatever power you have left in yourself. You have to fight it. Do not go back to square one & be a complete loser in the end. I've read the previous posts. The map has been laid down to you, just follow. Do keep us updated I wanted to know women's behavior more.

Interesting...I was thinking more along the lines of getting her hamster spinning, getting her imagination going and then replying to her when she tries to talk to me because I know she will. Some here have said to give up, relationship is over in the books yada yada but I think and emergency detachment is all that was really needed, that way either way im on the up in the power position regardless of what the future holds. I just believe that there really is no margin for much error on my point, but as long as I am detached im "winning" either way haha and thats the crux. Im up already either way cause ima follow that golden rule no doubt bout it. Spazz that bottle of whiskey is some good **** bro, nd thanks for the replies guys awesome community and support here im learning alot throughout the manosphere....

Five times I've had a girl say: "I'm dealing with a lot of stuff in my life at the moment".
And all five were fvcking someone else and trying to let me down easy.

Stay strong, brother. NC will liberate your soul and make her hamster spin out of control.
The second you reply to her, the hamster will kick back with a mojito and she will know she still has you on a string.
We've all been there and can attest to the uplifting power of NC.

Thanks for the words bro...appreciate it great motivation to stay in control
 

"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.
