"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.

I wouldn't apologize either for responding to a text 4 hours after receiving it. I'm actually angrier at you for complaining about it. You'd think it was 4 days.

People aren't always going to be attached to their phones. And even if they are, it doesn't really mean they're obligated to respond to your texts as soon as possible. Are we allowed to have private moments uninterrupted by technology? "Oh my god, some random guy from work texted! I better drop everything and respond now, before I forget this important communication exchange!"

Agreed.

And if you worry about sh*t like this, you are placing way too much importance on one girl.

In the early stages, I actually prefer to send out block text (e.g to 2- 6 girls at once) where possible, since it's more efficient and you don't get hung up on one girl.

Stop wasting time worrying about time to respond to messages and focus instead on whether she will meet up with you in person or not.
 

"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.

Females are something a man will never understand. OP, the very fact that you're worrying about this one girl shows that you carry around a picket with a sign reading "I have few options." Not attractive bro. If you were spinning more plates, you wouldn't care about this kind of crap.

You need to make yourself a more desirable male, if not high valued. Be the damn prize. If a girl's into you for sure, she'd text back quickly, but we'll never understand females. Just be a man who women want.

BTW, do real face to face talk instead of that virtual sh*t.

Case closed. Get more options.

Wrong. :nono:

I have a friend that's real pretty and she said she's real interested in this guy but she's afraid he's a player so she never hit him back. He's got that reputation. I know women who have said that they reject men sometimes just to see how confident they are. If they give up, she moves on.

I guess I'll have to filter out the advice because it wasn't what I was looking for. I asked what you guys do when girls don't always text back. Not what I should do. Only a couple of guys actually responded to my question(thank you) as the others responded to what they interpreted the question to be. And added some other interpretations about me as well from one post. How insightful of you :up:

Constantly being around technology really hurts us. The minute we send a text we expect the person that received it to send one back quickly. Who knows maybe the person that you sent it to just forgot or something...you never know.

I agree. Using my example, when I started dating my ex she was working at a restaurant. We would text a couple of times and she would respond right away and then she didn't respond. That's when I called her out 2 hours later one time. She said she was at work and it got busy. Do people all of a sudden walk into a restaurant for lunch? Of course. Maybe she wasn't telling truth. Maybe she forgot. Maybe she wasn't that interested. But maybe if I didn't pursue and chalked it off as she didn't like me then she never would've been my gf.
 

"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.

If a girl forgot or simply was too busy to respond, following up with a teasing text but not showing it affected you (like examples I gave) is your best bet bc if that was the case she'll laugh and explain herself. If she's not interested she'll simply just ignore it. Either way you should get a pretty good idea then.
