"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

just cut the cord with a crazy FB, and I like this freedom.

I've had some decent dates lately, and a fair amount of success this year...but I feel like sharpening the saw for a couple of months, recharging, and retreating into my own hobbies and workouts before I start dating again.

Is that ever OK? I don't want to "lose my touch", but the idea of not having girls define me for 2-3 months appeals to me.
 

"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.

It's fine, even beneficial.

As Paradox and a few others have noted, "plates" don't have to be women. Hobbies, career, fitness, etc. can be plates you spin.

I don't think any guy should chase puss constantly unless you are some "professional pickup artist."

I think it's a welcomed change. You don't need to constantly be skirt chasing to be happy.

this is an odd reason why. I'm not going all ElStud and saying "I'm done with girls", I'm just looking to take a time out for a while.

(I say 2-3 months, but it'll probably end up being a month...haha...it's getting warmer out.)

Yup, I'm at my best (pickup-wise) when I'm horniest, and I just haven't been that turned on lately. Goes in cycles. I hooked up with several chicks in 2 weeks back in January and then nothing since. Just haven't been interested enough to try.

It comes and it goes. It used to bother me when I went a couple of months without a new girl, but now I know it'll come back so I enjoy my downtime.
 

“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've experienced it; taking time off is just a buffer for Frustration. At one point I had a 5 flake streak. Embrace the highs and endure the lows. You will bounce back, but you won't do it by backing out of the Game.

why wouldn't it be ok? in fact you should do it!! you should be living your life for yourself....not women...you don't lose your touch if you know what you're doing.

there's always more to life than just women!!

you always need a break from everything in life!! take this time to have fun and better yourself!!

you will feel like a new man....already to go!!

good luck!
