This man found out his fiancee was cheating, so he made a plan, and did it well...
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.
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.
It was his closing statement. His closure. His communication.care to explain why this much work for a little *****?
Might not look like it but her emotional scar will last a very long time.Considering he could go from full revenge fury to 'minimal-reaction-bye' break up, I'd say it was a 3/10 on revenge scale. In overall, considering emotions, he took it like a man.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
i liked the sudden mood decrease on her face 'who the fuk is thomas roo'They will backwards rationalize anything other than top-form SMV replacement. In her mind what he did here is why she cheated on him (Time travel).
Indeed it is. It’s takes a well put together man to see it.It's excellent piece of advice unless onetis happen (and it may hapen even after taking redpill imo) as performing ghosting is extremally hard in such a case
