"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.

this is an update from this thread:http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=72039

So I went for the kiss with my friend...and got rejected from the kiss.. she was like whoa buddy...


Anyways, she got the totally wrong msg and had though of 2 things that i could have wanted to tell her. either that i was gay or i liked her....she had asked me multiple times whether what i was going to tell her would affect our friendship and like a dumbass i said no so of course in her mind that night she figured i was going to say i was gay. she was totally not expecting when i went for the kiss and i got totally blocked and felt like a retard but whatever.

We talked it over for a few hours and she told me that if i instead talked about what i was feeling instead of the kiss it may have been different but she doesnt really know. She said she does have feelings for me but doesnt know what she wants and said she is not good enough for me. She said she is attracted to my personality so I take that she isnt physically attracted to me. Also she said she has liked me that way on and off because in her mind I am just "Brandon" and that it was hard to see me otherwise.

I think I am damn confused myself since I dont really know what i want out of it. When I first met her I wasnt really physically attracted to her but as I got to know her better her personality did start to win me over and I find her a lot more attractive.

We agreed to just try to keep it the same it has always been and we kept it humorous while we were talking afterwards. The thing is it will never truly be the same.

I do want to keep our friendship since we have become so close in the last 6 months or so. Maybe since I had never become so close to a girl before I got it mixed up with wanting to make it more but I dont know what I am thinking or doing anymore since I am blind.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Thats your problem right there. Women can smell indecision on you a mile away, and its a turn-off!

TRANSLATION: I don't want to let you down hard, but I'm not physically attracted to you and do not see any potential for a romantic relationship.

If you'd have built things up a little more, gone out to dinner, gone someplace special, or set the mood up right, it probably might've felt a lot more natural.

Who knows. Either way, you've got to get over her as quickly as you can, because the more you let feelings for someone who doesn't want you linger, the more likely you are to get down on yourself and commit all your energies to finding some "secret plan" to get her to like you. Ain't happening.

i dont think i want to be with her that way. i think her personality won me over. weird thing is she told me she was jealous when she knew i liked another girl. anyways, i'd rather have her as a good friend to talk to than lose her over a relationship that may last only a short while.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

when she said to you that she didn't deserve to be with you, i would have said "fine, you're right... you don't deserve to be with me."

that right there is your other downfall, when women can tell that their friendship means more to you than to lose, over a relationship, she IMMEDIATELY has the control.

that scaredness won't allow you to be confident and sure when it comes time to go for it. If it's on your mind that you're worried taking things to that step will ruin it, you'll immediately save yourself when she rejects you.

How were you going to kiss her. On the lips? Cheeks?

Next time a situation like this presents itself, be sure to be prepared for this sort of outcome.

So, in other words, you completely skipped over everything that would've led up to a comfortable kiss, and it ended up being uncomfortable. I'm not gonna put the blame on you for this one, because this was in the other thread:

When she asks you what's up just kiss her.
No offence to the DJ(s) who pushed this advice, but it wasn't good advice. A woman needs to be comfortable with you touching her non-sexually before she'll become comfortable with things like kissing.

It's a learning experience. I hope you take this knowledge with you when you make a move on your next girl.

Another dumbass that had to learn the HARD way.
 

“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 think I realized why she may have thought i was gay and it's actually a compliment in some sense. she found me to be funny, charming, easy to talk to guy that dresses well but because i have never been in a relatioship or kissed or had sex it led her to believe i was gay. I remember once when we were talking she said that it seemed like a guy like me would have been in a few relationships. I have actually gotten this a few times. Girls seem to wonder why I havnt had a girlfriend since I seem to have traits that girls do like.

no you don't. you don't have traits that girls like. read the ****in bible for god's sake. You became her GAY friend, not someone she would want to be involved with. You could easily cut your losses if you just studied some basic rules of attracting women. READ NOW AND STOP POSTING.

This whole situation wreaks of inexperience. You'd better just forget about this one and just go on being her friend. Maybe later she'll think it over and change her mind but it seems to me like you were hanging out in the friends zone for far too long, and when you tried to push out (in a rookie way) she was just not having it.

Take your knocks and find a new interest. Hope you learned from this one pal.
 

“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.

She just doesn't find you attractive in that way. The kiss was a good indicator of this by action, though it was untimely, she still would have made it more easy for you. Also, she said herself that ends up being touchy/feely with someone she's romantically interested in.

You'll never have this girl that way, so it is time to move on, and this time don't be another girlfriend.

i'm really not all that upset. it's probably good to have some good friends that are girls they can give me their perspective on things.

B.S. and ill tell you why. Girls that give good head will give you an opinion too. And their perspective is from below your balls where as your perspective is from above. Thats a pretty different perspective.

I use to have problems like your current one. Accept this ONE girl as your female companion. No more thoa. Whoever said females can smell indecision and they dont like it is right. That use to be my biggest problem.

Perfect advise (speaking from experience, it's not fun if you don't give up)
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
