Her calls/texts aren't as often, as enthusiastic, she isn't as eager to see you or please you. What's the most effective move a DJ can make to salvage the situation?
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
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.
How to combat a declining IL?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Let her contact you. Distance yourself. She'll wonder what's up and her IL will most likely go back up. Another thing is that she needs to know that you have, or can have other options besides her.

Back off.
Attention is currency. If she's not earning the attention you give her, then take some back. Give her a pay cut, if you know what I mean.
Either your lowered level of attention sparks interest in her or it causes her to leave entirely, which would have happened anyway.
The lower level of attention will spark interest by making her wonder if you've become interested in another woman or if you're losing attraction to her or whatever crazy thoughts enter a woman's head.
So that's pretty much your only tool. You're not going to raise her IL by being MORE attentive and more loving. It's gotta be the opposite.

I'm in a similar situation - my question is how much to back off? I mean, you can go all the way from just flat out waiting for her to contact you, to maybe sending her a text every few days just to say "hi". If you completely back off, will she get the impression that YOU have no interest and in return lose interest herself?
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Search Ganji Games. Just be aloof, disinterested and BUSY! You can always slip some teasing after a week or two if you see her on a regular basis.
That works %100 if you made your intentions clear and she has/had interest at some point. If the two arent met it is like beating a dead horse but you should be moving on for real anyway.

Keep your distance, spin more plates, don't chase, and be busy with your goddamn life.

As others have said backing off is the best thing to do this situation. If its just dating or a relationship this will conclude to either:
From previous experience, trying to gain a chicks interest by being very giving is the worst thing to do and will possibly make a fool out of you.
- She has interest in you this will not push her away when she realizes she hasn't "got you". May think you have lost interest, lined up someone else etc. Begins to miss your attention and will begin thinking what she did wrong, or even ask you something on them lines. She will do anything she can to get your attention.
- She may have someone else lined up. If she doesn't contact you, or contacts you being non-flirty/non-enthusiastic/doesn't make any effort to see you,you've saved yourself a whole lot of time. Oh, and if it doesn't work out with her other option its very likley she will come back to you at some point later on - of which you don't go there and move on, your not second best and you do not take sloppy seconds, right?

"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.

Falcon got it right.
Yes, backing off, giving her space, acting busy/aloof, and generally doing the same to her that she's doing to you - CAN (sometimes) make her come begging back into your life... But, if her IL is down - there's a reason, and you need to figure out what that reason is, and MAKE SURE you work on that with the next one! There's generally 4 reasons a girl loses interest: 1) You're too nice/too much of a push over. --- 2) You're too available to her. --- 3) You're not leading the relationship (letting her make all the choices.) --- 4) You're too needy/crowding her!.... There's also a 5th reason, and that one is ANOTHER GUY! (i'd say this is 50% of the time, but is' out of your control; the other 4 are in your control.)
In short - you're not a challenge to her.
Falcon said to make her jealous. And honestly, in all my years - that is the only sure fire way to get things done. IF she sees you with another woman - the beast will be unleashed! You will not see a gradual increase in her IL, you will see a huge increase in her IL. ~Field Tested~
The only thing that scares me about telling younger/inexperienced guys this, is - sometimes she will throw tons of sh!t at you and you must be ready for it! Be ready for anything... From tears, to "I never want to see you again!" If you're not ready for that - don't even consider playing these games.
If you're looking for the perfect answer, that will fix things perfectly - there isn't one.

Since "there's another guy" is say 50% of the time, is there anything you can do in this situation? Or do you just next her?

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

STOP GIVING A SH1T.
Just do your thing. If it works out, fcking awesome you get to fck a hot girl. If it doesn't, who fcking cares. Not the end of the world - we have more important sh1t to worry about, right? (fcking hope so man, women should never be a priority unless you're about to marry her. Even then she's there to help YOU, not the other way around)
