"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 you text a girl until 3am is she just being nice? (read before calling me stupid)

this girl showed signs of interest a year ago and i was too much of a ***** and had a huge crush on her. she soon lost interest and when i finally mustered up the courage to talk to her more she just ignored me. she probably thought i didn't like her and gave up trying to slap me with hints. she also probably sensed that i was a ***** and lost interest.

one yer later i decide to text her to see how she's doing (the day after her graduation from high school) i texted her at 11pm and she replied at 2am. w
kept texting until 3am

since she used to ignore me and didn't talk to me after i wussed out i'm starting to think she was just bored that night and twxted me back to be nice or is there a spark of interest again?
 

"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.

The #1 method of measuring a woman's attraction towards you is her willingness to spend some time with you , one on one.
Ask her to hang out and you will have your answer.

1. NEVER text a girl you haven't already developed a relationship with.
2. NEVER text a girl late at night.
3. NEVER text a girl to "see how she's doing."
4. NEVER assume a girl isn't interested.

Now obviously there are exceptions to all of these rules, and this is only about texting her and not about texting her back (i.e. if she initiates the texting), but for most situations these will hold true.

What I don't get is that you already have her number, so why don't you just call her???

"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.

I'll give you 3 and 4, but 1 and 2 I disagree with. Most PUA's are incorporating txting into their game immediately.

Why not? As long as you aren't txting her stupid, needy or creepy stuff, she'll love it. ALL chicks do.

For example: You meet up girl at a club,and get her digits. You previously joked with her about having chicken legs. You part ways. A little while later, you send her something like "I got late night munchies.You know where to get any chicken legs this time of night? JK. nice meeting you."

Hopefully she'll laugh, and you'll be ingrained in her reality a little more. Scratch that. hopefully she'll text back with "Well, why dont you come over? I promise Im finger licking good!" You probably wont hear that with a phone call!

Texting when you first meet is a great idea. Its lighter, and less pressure. As for the late a night thing. If you're out and about on a Friday night, its never a bad idea to send a mass text out to your numbers saying something like "This is going on at this place and its a blast. Come down, or you're a big fat loser!" You never know who'll show up. Other than that, its a good idea to keep down the late night texting unless you're sure she has high IL, and if so, keep it sexual.

something like "Just saw a girl on TV that looks like you. She's wearing white lacy boy-shorts. I'll bet you wear those too, huh? My favorite:) " She'll probably write back with something witty, but if not, whatever.

Defintely dont late night text with something boring, or a dumb question. PUAs say keep your texts as statements she doesnt have to respond to.

For the OP though, you definitely should have turned it into a phone call. Text a few times back and forth, and if she is interested in it, call her.
