"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.

I've got to the point where i feel they're holding me back. My friends don't go out to pick up or even meet new people, i need to find some like-minded people. I'm thinking next weekend (maybe even during this week) i'm going to travel on my own to the city or somewhere i've never been before and see how i can do.

I also need to decide whether pubs, bars or clubs will be better - or maybe somewhere entirely different.

Feel free to post encouragement/advice/suggestions/tips/whatever. This is a pretty big step for me so it's all appreciated.
 

"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.

Send me some info via PM about yourself if you like (Age, etc), maybe we can arrange something. I'm also in London and looking to start sarging since I'm fresh out of a LTR.

Teach them the ways! I managed to turn all of my friends into PUA's

I brought them to a book store once, they all bought books. I didn't even tell them to.

Try showing them the way and if that fails then just find new friends. Don't let them hold you back whatever you do.


If you want to grow as a person that means you will become a different person to your friends. Like attracts like and since you become different both yourself and your friends will sense this.


You don't have to fall out with them and cut all contact, it's more of a drift away.

Time to find a "lair" of other PUAs. Trying to teach your existing friends "pickup" is a sure way to lose many of them, or flat out get ostracized from your current social circle. Best thing many people find is to keep both aspects of their lives separate until people start seeing the positive changes and inquire on their own.
 

"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.

I use to always be about having a Wingman
But this year alone, I realized that I'm better by myself
I have the fundamentals now, when it comes to approaching women.

I think if you go out with a "i-dont-give-a-f" attitude and just have fun you will be good. Going out solo is what you make it.

My best friend isn't clubbing no more he has a girl, so when he goes out he just chills, he doesn't even wing for me.

Most of my guy friends have such a different mentality when it comes to pick up as I do. They always stand for a long time, then approach. I approach at random, I'll open up any set. Sometimes I open up a set, without even thinking(it takes practice, confidence and a little alcohol lol)

Do ya thing man!
