"She's Out of Your League"

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.

After about 2 weeks of not seeing each other, and no contact... I just got a call about an hour ago from my ex, I picked up, said hello, and all I could hear was background talking. After a few seconds, I hung up and sent a text saying "Not sure you mean to call me..."

Question is, was this a butt dial, or a ploy to contact me and see how I'd react?
 

"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.

Listen up here! This an ex, therefore, it's not your job to wonder or care why she called. Her number should be blocked just for the times she wants to toy with your emotions. An ex shouldn't be given the time of day let alone a pick up of a late night call. To make matters worse, you sent her a text which gives her further validation that you care. Violation of the no contact rule will set your back in you recovery. Don't violate that rule again under any circumstances. The best revenge you can have on an ex is not to care while bringing in another woman. Don't pick up her calls, pick up another woman.

I got caught out the other day. Ex called my mobile from her work phone, which comes up as "no caller ID"
Reckoned she'd had a Misscall from the reception in my work.
Thought it might have been me (haha)
Convo didn't last long

Fella, don't give her the time of day.
And don't ever text back!!!

"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.

And she got what she wanted when you shot her a reply. I've found we may always feel inclined to reply to things but in the scheme of things, it is better to not have nor given it a thought.

Unless you are friends before or have to be with an ex (work etc), I'd never see the need to reply. Pleasantries can be exchanged should you bump into them.

Two weeks? That is not an ex. An call from an ex is like what happened to me, my ex-wife called after 8 YEARS of zero contact. She needed a copies of some papers.

Ignore it. You were wrong to even txt back.

Like everyone else, I'd suggest losing her number.Was her call to you a mistake? I'd say no or not entirely. The reason is ... even if not intentional, if she butt dialed, then this is an indication that your number was residing on her main screen (which means that your number was prominent) . No matter, exiting this is best, but you can leave with that bit of knowledge.
