"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.

Broke up with this girl a couple of days ago. she is an AW, i know big mistake. We dated for like a month and i knew for like 6 or 7 months total. When we broke up i kind of saw it coming but she decided to do it first which p1ssed me off cause i know I am way better then anything she has had atleast from what I have seen. I actually said this to her also.

The day we broke up I kind of got soft called her and tried to talk to work things out then i said fvck it.

The next day i texted and asked if she was alright that turned into a 5 hour long texting session. she said im a great guy and she has nothing bad to say. I said wtf then your logic is fvcked up etc. then i went on to say dont come say hi to me, u used me etc. I then said said dont come around my friends. she got p1ssed at that cause all of her friends are people i introduced her too. i said you fvck with me i fvck with you. she got p1ssed, i called her later and said sorry i cant be like this to you i still ike you and dont wanna be a d1ck but thats how i get when i feel i get slapped in the face.

Ill see her out and i will defiantley not go up and say hi to her but she might come say hi to me. how should i act? should i just start negging the sh1t out of her and walk away? i havent contacted her since that day.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Turn all your mutual friends against her if you can and just get her out of your life.

Any of the friends who take her side cut out of your life forever.

You fvcked up by not making sure you were the one to dump her first.

Now the b!tch has all the power and got her little ego boost from it then you got angry which to her mind indicated you were crazy in love with her which is why you can never get angry at these b!tches ie you don't want to give them any sense of validation of their worth when they screw you over.

And you should not of called her up and apologized for what you said either.

Total symp/AFC move to do that. It shows you are unsure of yourself and your decisions as a man.

This whole situation in fact was one giant fvck up from top to bottom.

Oh well though.

Learn from this experience and never let this happen again.

When your gut instinct senses tell you a relationship is going downhill you make sure you're the one to pull the LJBF/breakup card first.

"You haven't got any business talking to me, turn around and walk the other way".

If she comes up and talks to you at all or acts sweet its only a veiled manipulation to try and get back in your and your friends good graces.

As for showing up unannounced thats home invasion which the b!tch could of been arrested for if you wanted.

Most people wouldn't have that done when its some ex chick of theirs but anyway aside from the home invasion what her doing this symbolized was her absolute lack of respect for you.

You don't go over to someone's house unannounced like that.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Tony Montana?

"You **** with me I **** with you|"

Man, you sound like Tony Montana... KX is right, you ****ed it up from top to bottom.

And his advice is probably the best on the topic.

I am in similar feelings so you have my sympathies... This chick that was totally into me suddenly stopped returning my calls. I WAS pissed off, and I made a colossal AFC move by calling her a "jerk" for not returning my calls. I tried to patch my weakness up later on by going for the " oh I was completely kidding!" move and ejected myself.

Golden Words from KX : We must not give them even the SLIGHTEST validation when the relationship is screwed.

The regret of giving her that unnecessary ego boost is really caustic!

Yikes!

Good luck DJ - Go out and sail for new realms...
