"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

So a girl I've been banging sent me a text message today:

Her: You have competition.. guy at work made this for me :) x
(added a picture of mixtape CD)

Me: This is what I would give you. x
(added a picture of my belt.. implying I would spank her)

Her: Ooh, I can feel that ;-) x

Her: And also the lovely music :p x

Me: You won't hear no music when I'm done with you ;-) x

Her: That sounds right :) x

I then left it and haven't engaged in anymore conversation.

So what's the deal with this? I have been hooking up with her for about a month but I have kept it real casual and fun. She suddenly throws a little jealousy tactic. Is this good/bad? Do you feel I handled it well?

I'll wait for her to text me next and just try arrange another hook up soon.
 

"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.

"girl I've been banging"

You're not exclusive right?

She's letting you know she's still a wanted woman. Typical chick $hit testing behavior. You handled it splendidly IMO. Keep not giving two $hits.

If anything she's being a brat, making things 'interesting', having some fun, no big deal. She hopes and expects you to come out on top.

If you two were exclusive, depending on the situation, it may be a little disrespectful. If it were me, I'd take it as a joke: "har har, I have competition?? Good one woman :crackup:"

If you're secure and confident, you'll respond in a secure and confident manner. If you respond in a weak insecure manner, she'll pick up on it, and judge you accordingly.

holy sh!t, that was a hell of good reply to sh!t test. average chump would immediately start composing a mixtape and send it to her, then game over! but you sir, you went at it like a champ ha.
 

"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.

Well played I'd say.

You can also flip the tables and tell her you've got other ladies chasing you too...it's a ballsy move but if you get them jealous it's even better.

Cheers chaps. Yeah we ain't exclusive so I didn't take it as all that offensive.. but it looks like it worked. She tried to meet me couple days ago but I was genuinely too busy and she has kept initiating, asking me how my work is etc. I've just kept it light and indifferent. Won't bring it up and just building the tension till I plow that candy cave again!
